Very well put, just as Murray is quick over 5 yards and painfully slow anything over 10, Jurgen seems to be the complete opposite

Which is why we need to put it in front of him to run onto, like Jose.

A centre forward being played on the left of midfield. Number 9 on his back and lambasted by a vocal minority. That could never happen at BHA.
Since you like my post so much you have now quoted it five times, would you like to know where it comes from? Clue: it is a quote from a character called Spud Gun. No cheeky googling, now
I first heard this joke from a US comedian, Anderson I think. Was in response to a small child telling his parents in a whiny voice "I am going to have a mohawk with a spike through my head" (after his older brother shows him pictures of his parents as punks).
He could have lifted it from somewhere else of course.
It did look as if, in the first 30 min, he was being overlooked for passes when they were on. As someone else mentioned, it might well be that his teammates were not quite sure of him as a target either after his previous appearances. However as the game went on he increasingly became a target (the cross field balls from Stephens and Pröpper were fantastic), and he really seemed to grow into it. Like others I hope he keeps the shirt and uses this as a springboard. Can he be in the starting 11 when all are fit I have no idea, but seeing him vs Arsenal I think now it is possible. I did not before witnessing that.
His running off the ball is top class. Saw it in his appearances last season and several times at Bournemouth he was moving into a decent position but didn’t get picked out. Think you’re spot on......as time passes the rest are cottoning on to his runs. He’s a Baldock upgrade.
He's an upgrade on a player who never got so much as a sniff when we got into the PL? Oh well, well worth £15M then!
Bottom. Not sure which episode, but it would probably be the 'raise the devil' episode. I liked the quip so much I have used it in 'real life' a few times. It never goes down well

I'm pretty sure he played on the left of a front 3 at PSV. When you play players in the position they're used to, they look a lot better!

Absolutely. He played a similar role at Man U in the cup last year very well.
Very good first half. He is making a big difference to the number of bodies we’re getting forward when attacking with his eagerness to get in to the box from the wing, something we don’t get from the other wingers.
Putting in a real shift too.

Hardly ranted, just expressing my opinion and then batted away all the sneers and jeers that followed. And I’m still flying despite the flak thank you as a true Ace does!
Are you ready to be a man and admit that Locadia IS A GOOD PLAYER and that you criminally judged him on way too little game time?
Are you willing to admit you’ll give foreign players more of a chance to settle in the future before you write them off?
Or do you need more evidence than the last three games? [emoji1787]

As opposed to £3mil per goal for Andone?
