    Decent and clever hold up play got us up the park when trying to see the game out, so well done big man.
    At the time, I was screaming for him to square it, we had 2 men in the box at the time.

    Done well again. That’s why I held back on Saturday when he was getting slaughtered. It was a penalty and it’s a lottery most of the time!

    It’s still far to early to judge him yet. Done well in all his sub apps. it’s just that Livi game he disappointed but who didn’t.

    I like him, puts himself about, buys fouls, its hard coming in as a striker here and there, penalty miss aside i think hes done ok.

    In 6 months time we will be adding him to that list of the past 10 years of strikers we signed for 2m+ that can’t even trap a football.

    In the last 10 years how many strikers get a pass?

    4?

    I get why some people like him but put him up front against a low block and he gives you nothing.

    Does he merit a chance more than Ajeti ? He's hopeless man.

    He looks similar to Ajeti, which is not suited to our game.

    We need Maeda so we're not so reliant on Kyogo. Hopefully punt Ajeti in Jan.

    Will give GG til the end of the season but it's been a woeful start from him.

    How much money have we pished down the lavvy on these £2-£3 million pound strikers? Christ Ajeti was £5!

    Our "scouts" are shocking at times. OK, we got Kyogo, but that was clearly Ange. GG looks utterly hopeless. * me.

    He looked decent prior to last Saturday, when he’ll no doubt have suffered a huge dent in confidence.

    He needs a few goals to hit the ground running, but the truth is he might not see the game time for that to happen.

    Not ready to write him off, but do think he’ll struggle (like a lot of strikers have in the past) to show his best in limited minutes.

    We've just won and some of you can't wait to slate a guy who missed a chance and is trying to find his feet here.

    * right off. Miserable *

    Lost his confidence a bit but hold up play excellent. Difficult as a striker when the three frontmen are on fire. Feel he's trying too hard to score, need to keep it simple

    He's utter muck. Maeda in and get this donkey on the bench.
    He's only good for buying fouls, offers absolutely nothing

    True, utter morons on this thread. Always need to pick on someone , he's flavour of the month right now going by things.

    So much for the floodgates opening up after he got his first.

    Not writing him off yet but we look so much worse when he comes on for Kyogo.

    At the same time that's an issue including the team too, we need to learn to play without Kyogo.
