I'm personally in the camp of preferring we go after a LW to a CF. Werner, Son and Brennan can get in behind well but we're still missing someone who can go by a fullback
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Agree. I think Kulu is good enough to play up top as well and cover Richy if needed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
say whaaaat???
It’s a no for me. I don’t think he will keep this purple patch up. Happy to have him around the squad and he’s definitely got better, but ultimately I don’t think we’ll win anything if he’s our No 9. It all still feels like a bit of a struggle.
Maybe having Kane up top has ruined my perspective of what a No 9 is, but I’d prefer Watkins, for example. More clinical and more mobile.
When everyone is fit… he deserves to be in the team on merit… his work rate is very good… his hold up play rally improving… plus helps out defensively… he’s also getting his goals… 7 in 7 is very good…
But next season providing we are in Europe… we will need another out & out striker…
At the moment, when everyone becomes available:
Son. Richarlison. Werner
Richarlison would be even more prolific, if we actually send crosses in for him!!

Defensively he is one of the strongest forwards in the PL, his movement is also very decent, hold up play is ok. As long as he gets 15 goals a season then no reason to upgrade really.

But the most important thing is his xg, what’s that like?

He’s a xChaos

Interesting that you say that when he’s 3rd on the big chances missed stat, I’m a big Watkins fan but he’s definitely not clinical
I think what bugs me about Richarlison is that he's not particularly tall or fast. He's good in the air for sure, tis a shame we lost Perisic to injury. But yeah there's not much better around unless we spend big
He is entering the prime years of his career. If he can do a job like Bobby Firmino used to but with more goals then we got a player.
