2022/23 Demarai Gray

….talking generally, last season I felt Gray was our most dangerous attacker but I’ve always described him as a ‘complicated’ rather than an effective striker.

’Complicated’ players are difficult to form partnerships with and blend into a team. Gordon was a bit like that too.

it’s not a matter of how many goals he scored, it’s a matter of replacing him with somebody more effective and I think that can happen without much difficulty.

Thinking that we can’t or shouldn’t at least try to improve on these absolute wastemen is a big part of the reason why we just keep getting worse and worse and worse. I remember when we signed Gray and Townsend and they was seen as good cheap low risk squad players, now people are lauding him as some irreplaceable member of the first team. Doesn’t that just say everything you need to know about our demise.

There's a thread on here (that got 90 likes) saying we should accept that level of dross :coffee:
 
Gray is pony, don't mind seeing him shipped off at all. £10m is a 500% increase in value, take that cheers.

Flatters to deceive because he looks fast twitch and scores the occasional banger but ultimately he lacks match intelligence, doesn't make great decisions, and has poor end product.

Will need upgrading tho.

He didn’t score many goals so it’s a double whammy

Our demise may get worse as yet..... Gray played no 9 for a good few games - we should be asking more for him - the other lot get bigger fees for older finished players ....

Compare to how we have fared pre season upfront he looks like Pele to that lot on show ..... if we sell him 10 million is far too low imo.....
