With our current forwards around him, a sharp/fit Vinny would score goals and be good back-up for Kane.

But he’s obviously done something or fallen out with Poch bad enough to not even get a squad number. It doesn’t make sense, even with him injured you’d think he’d even get a number on the back of his shirt.

Why would it be any different than last time? Only addition we've made is Lucas and he's not just putting them on a plate for Kane right now.

I had really high hopes for him a few years ago- but then it just went tits up.
When he turned down the Brighton loan it all turned sour- I don't know what happened but it's best if he moves on ASAP

Our forward play have developed a great deal.

The chances/good situations we now create in and around the box is significantly different from when he has his cameos.

I think he brings more value/potential than Llorente (which was a nonsense signing to begin with).

Yeah, I dunno.

Maybe Herc has more insight into this aspect.

Think it's a waste not utilising him.

In 16/17 we led the league in goals.. and he couldn't score.

Sorry but I think you are completely overrating him. For me he does not have the basic instincts a striker needs. He seems to have been manufactured as a striker by his previous clubs with out having the basic skills required for the job.

He was a punt that did not come off as he could not step up to the Premier League. Llorente on the other hand is a vastly experienced proven goalscorer who can act as a backup and is a different type of player to our other forwards. So hard to get a back up with Kane and Son being so good

Think it's important he gets some fitness in. If we sell Llorente, we must not be "desperate" for a replacement.

I think VJ has matured over the past couple of seasons. He might be ready to take his chance. we had a lot of players who was "thrown" into the deep end. Kane, Lennon, even King were all not first choice, but they took their chances.

If Sissoko can.... Why not Jansen.

As long as he is a member of the team, I will support him.
