Watched Wolfsburg few weeks back, scrappy game with the opponent being the better team but couldn't score. Weghorst scored with his only chance to win the game That pretty much sums up most of Wolfsburgs wins this season. I like Poulsen too but Weghorst is a natural goalscorer and Poulsen isn't.

Mjvilla Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 12 minutes ago, Villan4Life said: Similar in style of play Paul. But i feel Weghorst is a much better all-round player than Crouchy. He's muchmore of a natural finisher. Check out video below of some of his finishes:- Looks quite ugly in his style at times but definitely can finish nicely. Does look very similar to crouch but perhaps a bit stronger and more athletic. Crouch forged a decent PL career so maybe not a bad thing to be compared there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made In Aston Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 A lot of names mentioned here! Whichever attacking players come in, they need to have pace and direct running/skill to beat a player. Elghazi and Trez couldn't even beat their own meat, let alone the opposition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 I would actually love Iheanacho. He's proven he's a good striker, it's just his luck that he had to bide his time behind Aguero first and now Vardy. He deputized very well during the latter's absence this season (and of course we just had to find that out first hand). More importantly he seems to have an excellent attitude and never sulked when out of the team for so long and grasps his opportunities when they come with both hands. (He also looks like Jonathan Kodjia and I still kinda miss the crazy guy) I hope he's finally ready to be the main striker at aclub, and I'd welcome him with open arms to be honest. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's more money to be made with 'Arsenal/Manchester United/Citeh/Liverpool need to sign...' than more or less any other other English club. Becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think our mistake might be in assuming Origi would be here to play centrally. Liverpool has used him out wide quite a bit, and he might be asked to fill a role as a winger here. In other words, it wouldn't be Wes or possibly Watkins Origi would be competing with, but Trez and El Ghazi. Either way, positional versatility is a good thing, and it's one thing we don't have enough of alongside pace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I like Iheanacho and agree that with a run in the side he could be a regular scorer. Better shout than Origi for sure. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 If we signed Origi he'd be playing through the middle and he would be far and away our best striker. He's another who's goal record doesn't look great, but when you look at his goals to minutes ratio it's very good, as is the amount of assists he gets. Would be doing well to sign him, can't see Liverpool being particulary in a rush to let him go as he serves them very well as a backup striker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Origi's a better all round footballer than Iheanacho from what I've seen, gets more invovled in the general play, but I think me would prefer Iheanacho because he gets his goals for Leicester whereas Origi gets his for a Liverpool team who will be pinning teams back when he comes on, so probably much easier to score for Liverpool in those circumstances than it is for Leicester. I doubt we will be signing either though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 That Weghorst clip is ok. But it always baffles me as to why people put clips of strikers hitting the post on a highlight reel. I'm not sure he would suit the style of play we need in the PL. We need quick forward players who will put teams under pressure from the front.

One of the clips even shows him control it in front of goal but doesn’t show what happens next. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
