2018/19 Cenk Tosun

SELL

 

[dannyboy]

Got no service. 1 good delivery and goalie pulled of a good save.

He will never get good service because his ability to find space for himself is dreadful. Especially when the other team is sat in.

 

[hallamblue]

I think he's now competing with Bolassie for the title of worst ever signing.

 

[havrey0123]

Not just him, the whole strike force is shocking.

Niasse tosun DCL

...I just think he’s ordinary but i’ve said that from when I first saw him.

Tosun lacks athleticism in a league where athleticism for a striker is a vital ingredient unless they’ve got outstanding technique. Tosun has not got outstanding technique, he’s just ordinary. Walsh signed him.

 

[phil_t98]

he doesn't really add anything to the team, seems like a decent guy and try's hard but he's the wrong type of striker to how we play

 

[KaiserEFC]

Seemingly needs a chance put on an absolute plate for him to nick a goal. A smart finisher but almost totally unable to carve out even a half chance by himself.

“Ordinary” is how I describe him. He’s not quick but not exactly slow. He’s ok at heading. His finishing isn’t bad. He’s fairly capable at passing. He’s just very ‘meh’.

Walsh has a lot to answer for. Our side was lumbered with slugs and crying out for pace & technique. Then he goes and adds this fella. Not Tosun's fault but he doesn't fit the bill for Brands & Silva's style. Hopefully someone comes in with an offer for him in Jan

 

[EverBlue92]

Absolute Bobbins.

 

[maccavennie]

Could be another player who we lose a lot of money on. I should imagine Besiktas would be interested in him but what can they afford... 10-12m absolute max surely??

The pace issue isn't a problem for me, it's that he doesn't occupy the defender's and drag them all over the shop. He's just too easy to mark

...absolutely, and even if a club is able to meet our asking price, matching his wages will be a major problem.

Yep, he probably tripled/quadrupled his wage when signing for us.

Like you said eggs..... Walsh

Is he rated in Germany at all? Doubt we'll get a fee from a Turkish side.
