2022/23 Neal Maupay

Agree mate that he's gash and looks like he's running in treacle, I was making the point that for some reason we continued to hoof balls up to him with those grocks at the back for Wolves even though they didn't even have too jump to beat him in the air.

We did also try passing the ball to him on the ground and he couldn’t do that either so looks like we exhausted all options.
 

He’s been set up for failure, to be honest.

Off the bench or as second striker I think he’d do a good job.
I agree not a first choice striker.
Watch gray beat the full back a cross it to the middle where the centre back just cleared it all up easily was demoralising.
 
To be a striker you need the following qualities
Pace
Good hold up play
Finishing

Maupay has none of these, so how the hell does he get a game over any other striker at the club, are they that bad?

Also noticed this, then you must ask the question, who scouted him, who thought he was good enough for us and was better than what we had, seriously scary goings on at our club.

We needed a striker, couldn’t afford to get whoever was on our list, got to the end of the window and was a case of who is the least worst of what is available for the little cash we have. That’s the scouting. Panic written all over it.
 
He needs someone alongside him upfront to play off. He was picking the ball up too far away from goal and travelling in the wrong direction most of the time.
The team is lacking confidence. Midfield have to be braver on the ball. The widemen have got to show more and give options. The only player who showed real intent and tried to get thing going was Patterson. Iwobi hardly put a foot wrong on the ball but he was receiving it too deep. I seen players staying put instead of running beyond the lines and that is a sign of not having faith in your fellow players to find you with a pass and we look disjointed as a result.
