Gonna go out on a massive limb here and say that the big Germans form is just a purple patch and he'll ultimately flop.

Heard it here first.

Looked a lot better today didn’t he?

Nice touches, decent in the air.

Start him and keep faith through the bad performances that inevitably come with a young striker.

I'd be all for giving him the shirt now , the others need to start chipping in with goals to take the pressure of the lad , Beto gets last 20 mins . Jack needs to actually shoot , bin off KDH for Charly at least got a goal in him.

Big difference starting a game and coming on after 70 mins... He's done ok doing the latter a couple of times and been shit the former. Keep using him in the way where he looks half decent as it's the best way to build his confidence and learn to play in the Premier League.

Past the point of caring whether he starts or comes off the bench. Both our strikers aren’t up to the task of playing at this level so it doesn’t matter which way around we play them.

He was shit again. Better than usual because he trapped a few balls but that was is. We looked more threatening with beto. Its just about which shade of shite you want. Both are utterly crap

He started against Brighton and had some really good moments

I'd just rather we gave him the chance to get it right.

He stunk the place out against Palace but I still feel he is a tad better on the ball than Beto.

I don’t think he worries/occupies central defenders regardless of how good he is or isn’t on the ball. Problem is neither of them are any good for the here and now.

Good player imo.

Seen enough already.

Got a really good touch and looks good with the ball at his feet.

Start him, let him figure all the rest out.

The players around him will get better playing with him.

There’s no trust in beto.

I noticed a couple of times a player wouldnt pull the trigger towards Beto and would actively turn for a better option.

Lack of trust kills everything

I know the feeling.
There’s a lad in my team, who, unless he’s in acres of space and with half a open pitch ahead of him, I’d never pass to, because 60-70% of the time he’d either miscontrol or somehow proceed to lose possession anyway. He’s a lovely lad, mind you. Never stops trying but football just isn’t for him.

Hmm,
Team does have a great keeper.
No full backs. CBs suspect of switching off at set pieces.
Best player is an aging DM.
Strikers are useless at holding up the ball and wayward with the few shots they manage to get.
Yeah, there are lots of similarities.
But we play in red.

At the stage now of just playing him, hope one flies in off his knee and the surge in confidence takes him up to January.
