So your only choice is Tosun, I hope he come good.

What's Steve Watson doing these days?

Even Dave Watson lol.

If only he had a shot on him...I fear he’s always going to be a striker who can’t score goals.

Interesting theory considering he scored in our last game.

Stop pretending you don’t know what I mean. A 1 in 7 rate for a striker is horrible and that’s what he is. His shots are often misplaced and/or weak. I’ll give you that he’s got a great 2 yard free header.

Wasn't actually a free header though was it, but yeah it's probably correct to right him off now, what with all the free flowing football we're playing, the consistency and great form in the team mates around him, all those chances put on a plate for him he's missing and given that his best years are probably behind him. Seems reasonable.

Manager of Gateshead. Seems a nice lad

Look at him there; not an Arsenal player in sight.

No one is writing him off friend. Settle down. He needs to figure out how to hit a ball cleanly and pick a corner. Haven't seen that from him this year.

Fair enough. Take out the word free then. He's got a great header from two yards. He's the best striker in world football and has a cracker of a shot on him.

Without being able to see tosun in a run of games I don't understand why people don't consider him our best option. If Niasse is better in your estimation then ok but I think you are bending over backwards to give him no credit not to mention his potential ability is imo very high.

I'm not sure if this is what you meant, but he scored directly from a corner with a header against Watford at home this season.

should ready himself for lots of miuntes going on what we are hearing about Tosun.

we will go with what weve got... again... even after actually spending money on a player

You can probably forget the two yards bit as well.

Everything I'd want a striker to be able to do, he can do. He just doesn't do it consistently. Given his age, that's not surprising.
