Rom and Bony will do fine up front together.

Ambitious.

I would expect any top level footballer to be able to control a football without it bouncing off some part of his body and ending up in the stands

But you'd put up with that if he continued his current ratio of a goal every other game wouldn't you?

I don't think anybody has ever said the lad doesn't have flaws or things he needs to work on and do better, but you just can't argue with the fact he scores goals, and that's the most important thing you want from your striker.

I wonder if Rom is gonna fall away from here on in.

Defenders are taking advantage of his cack first touch he seems less mobile (is he on a pie diet?) and kicking off at the manager suggests attitude. If we get him on loan fair enough but I wouldn't be breaking the bank for him.

 

[ProZ]

Dont even know why I come in this thread to justify the fact he is not all that good, but it appears a few people have watched a few motd highlights that build him up as the next Drogba and have fallen for it.

I am struggling to name one above average goal he scored for Everton last season besides the Arsenal one, not just that, but he offers nothing else either, awful workrate, doesn't use strength, can't pass, no interplay, cant head, lazy runs, bad technique and first touch - some people need to open their eyes.

His replacement just scored, prob won't play the next game now.

A goal is a goal pal. And he scores lots of them.

The lad has played 66 Premiership games and scored 32 goals before the age of 21.

 

[Herk8346]

Clearly we should sign Origi ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I know this but people are acting like he can walk on water, he is scoring average goals in a very good Everton side, goals that I believe anyone could score if they play lone striker for us.

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Thought he had a few mares myself,his worst game was WBA away IMHO,came away from that one not really caring if he f*cked back straight away to Chelsea,lazy,disinterested,poor first touch and gave the ball away for their equaliser!!

So why did Jelavic only score 7 the season before?

That's a ridiculous statement.

I highly doubt anyone could play lone striker for us

He's possibly overrated but that's just nonsense.

Kone and jela make a mockery of that statement.
