Absolutely cooking this season. So weird for us to sign a young player and them to follow the exact trajectory you hope.

Good to see him get an assist like that last night.

Didn’t know he had that in his locker.

What’s that now? About a thousand goal contributions already.

Does still have you tearing your hair out in moments but he's come on loads since last season.

We must be one of the worst teams to play up front for but he's getting himself a good amount of chances each game.

That’s the point half the time he is completely isolated up there he definitely needs to work on his hold up play but everything is improving bar the floss celebration bin that

Crazy isn’t it.

One of the biggest striker talents on the PLANET, tearing it up for the tricky toffs.

Like all young players you do have to be a bit patient and show a bit of ball knowledge but thankfully we’re well renowned as an understanding and knowledgeable fanbase with absolutely no reactionary takes whatsoever.

Fair enough if you're not that into him as a player. Opinions and all that. I'm a big fan, and am delighted we've got him.

But there's a decent chunk of our fanbase who actually think he's a donkey, almost like a Niasse level player. The technique and the execution for the goal and the assist last night show that he's anything but a donkey.

I have big doubts about him, but to be fair it's more that he doesn't fit well in Moyes's system and tactics - launching it to him 30 times a game with no-one nearby for any offload while the CBs take it in turns to mop up.

Continues to look equally clumsy and brilliant. I think he's nuts and boss.

Will be his breakthrough season this. Has obvious flaws but the improvement he's made in certain areas is hugely noticeable.

Work on his hold up play and headed chances over the next 12 months and we'll be very glad the manager was forced to play him.

When we get the ball to his feet and in the channels he is very good.
Lumping it up to him is no good for him or the team.

Best finisher we've had in ages.

Can he really be the best finisher we've had in ages when he's missed more big chances than anyone else in the league?
