You could so he’s been played wide, but so has Mahrez..
Needs to improve imo.
He's a classic occasionally brilliant but often absolute shite player. Not too hot on the striker front - best off as a Mahrez sub out on the right.
About sums it up .
Imo a striker is there to score goals but some apologists will say “but he offers a lot elsewhere on the pitch””!
I said numerous times we can never ever rely on him to be a constant , if ever , Match winner .
In the time since he last scored, he's got 5 assists. Only 4 players in the PL have more than that all season. However, I agree that he will never be a consistent match winner, and would probably never get more than 15-18 league goals per season in our setup(s).
Pogba has the same amount of assists as him..
