We have had three 20+ strikers in thirty years. They are hard to find. We would end up with another hard working low scoring CF. A Rondon if you like.I disagree, think it wouldn’t take much to find a striker his level. Patrick bamford scored more than him last season. And he’s only ever got double figures twice. And is 25 next month.
Personally I think he’s easily replaceable, unfortunately like you say weren’t that good and don’t have many saleable assists. But if we won’t to improve as a squad/team something will have to give. And I’d sell him before Richarlison.
Liverpool get a lot of crosses in the box from their full backs and don’t have a DCL, so it’s important we get quality in the box, whoever is up there, but we shouldn’t just set up to attack that way. It’s a 2 way we street we have to play to his strengths and he has to improve to fit in with the managers strengths.
I actually think Richarlison will be sold in the summer. He will have two years left so it is time to cash in. Also, I think he will get a chance at a decent European CL team, maybe PSG, maybe Spain or Italy.
