Wolves 1-1 Spurs: Verdict thread

It seems Fabio's biggest crime is that he isn't Raul

I'd say guilty as charged m'lud, but he's only 10 years younger and the same amount less experience in the field.

161 and 166 but Johnny 75 called Alan out on it at 162 and 164. I just added some balance and what I thought was reasoned summary at 173. 166 Alan stated that it comes over as shitty and cynical. Hence my response that even though he has done ok he is there to score and hasn’t and you can’t avoid talking about 35 million . I don’t care if it is a zero net spend it’s still spent! Otasowie looks the best newcomer this season in his brief appearances. For me, if that opinion is not too controversial for some of you.

The price is irrelevant - he had sod all to do with that.

We maybe shouldn't have to be relying on an 18 yr old to take the main striker role, but we are - that's not his fault

No, it's not being a plug and play replacement for Raul. Without doing the feasibility argument again, Fabio isn't the issue, him being the only option is. Play Russian Roulette eventually you get the bullet

Fabio has the right quality, but not the split second reaction yet to make the correct choice - he's played less than 10? first team games anywhere.

Did question his price tag, but think that he will come good - he's only there as we didn't have anyone else when Raul got injured.

So how does he get better if he does not play? How can you come good if you do not play? Foden has wasted 20% of his potential career at City watching football.
