Based on his highlights (I know) I can definitely see why he might end up as a striker instead of a winger, but great to have somebody who can be an option in both positions
It's a simple game and all that, but genuinely do think it's good when you have as many players on the pitch who can decently shoot a football as possible. With some teams in the past, we were so so reliant on like 1 or 2 players who could shoot and the rest just endlessly passed it around. It becomes much easier for teams to defend too.
Now we're potentially in a situation where Barry looks like he can finish well, George and Ndiaye can both shoot, there are goals in Garner and Gueye too and some of defenders are decent threats too, particularly on set pieces.

You did not just call Deulofeu a mediocre player!
Umbrage.
Note I said ‘mainly’. To say mainly mediocre players, an outstanding prospect, a ghost, and James Rodriguez would’ve slightly detracted from the ‘joke’

Don’t tell me - you actually like Deulofeou - despite what you said just then!?
