He's a similar type of striker to Kane from what I've seen - good header of a ball, pretty strong, and good feet - so would make sense as an understudy or rotation option.

There were some question marks over his attitude a while back if I remember correctly.

Sounds good, Roma are in for him apparently, we seem to like sharing targets. Funnily enough I thought he looked like a bit of a scrote in photos, so doesn't surprise me he might have a bit of an attitude...

Yes please. But will not come cheap. Probably 15-18M. Doesnt have the greatest workrate though.

Didn't look the fittest lad from what I've seen. Reports he isn't so keen on running, so doesn't sound Poch appropriate.

Guess we'd have to assess whether we think we could bring the increased work rate to his game. Which is unlikely in most cases, which is a shame as he looks like a striker that would do well here...

Never heard of him, but we could link his wages to his distance covered during games. I bet the lazy fucker would move then.

He may have work rate issues but he did outmuscle Mertesacker for a sweet last minute diving header against the Goons.

We already have a striker who some people think has work rate issues, why would we buy another 1?

He may be lazy and have a poor attitude but the kid is only 20 so we can work on that and hope he matures (which he probably will).
