Not one goal in his 15 or so first minutes of PL football. Get rid.

Why has he had so little minutes ? Where as Maupay went straight in under Potter (and scored first game) ?

Neal Maupay had two seasons of English football behind him when he joined Brighton.and didn't really have any competition for the spot.

It will take time for Undav to grow into the PL, if he does.

Probably keep training with the team so that he gets used to playing with and against PL level players which is very far from anything he has done so far in his career. Then when he is ready, he'll get game time.
Whereas Mitoma has come from the same club, the same league and has made an impact every time he's come on like a duck to water.

Yup, sometimes it goes quick - like with Caicedo - sometimes slow - like with Ali Mac.

I have to say it is pretty ****ing NSC to write off a player who is entirely new in the country and the league and has played 15 minutes.

Just because mitoma is lively doesn’t mean he’s been particularly effective yet. He’s finding his feet, like undav .

Don't think anyone has written him off, just rightfully wondering why Potter would rather play with no striker than play him.

Perhaps his development is behind what we fans were hoping for, which is understandable but also concerning if we have to rely on Welbeck being available for 90% of games.

It’s a concern. The way we were first half we didn’t look like scoring if we had played 1,000 hours of football.

Got to give him a chance but doesn't seem to have anything about him from the small amount of time he's had.
Zeqiri showed a bit more IMO.

No one’s writing him off , just wondering why Potter is so hesitant to use him apart from against League One opposition. Apparently he scored a few goals in Belgium right.

We literally played with no striker rather than try him. And even a ‘resting’ Welbeck came on before him

A stonking win against Leicester and all will be fine again!

But yet GP gets pixxed off if anyone mentions the words ‘striker needed’ :shrug:

Why does everyone keep banging on about Deniz's weight. Looks about the same as Mitrovic and apparently he's god like.

A stone of muscle is quite different to a stone of kebab fat.
