He's the one  player we have I feel confident can do anything when he has the ball. But it can be exasperating how he'll often take the wrong option. I still think he should be a starter as there's a lot of talent there but as has been said, his end product needs to be better and more consistent.

He should be ripping this shit league a new one but hasnt

moody and greedy on the ball id fuck him off in jan while we can still get some half decent money

Agree.  If a decent offer came in, I would sell as well and bring in a wide left option.

Perhaps a tad harsh but what I've seen this season he's reminded me of N'Zogbia.

He needs a few good games.  I thought he was awful v Cardiff, his attitude was all wrong and unless he was carrying a knock I can see why he was dropped.

He's not as much of a blind alley merchant as Zog and is also more of a goal threat. Can't imagine Charlie scoring that goal at Barnsley or breaking the crossbar in half against Forest.

yes I agree, Zog on a good day. He is frustrating but still one of our most dangerous players and I would have him in the team

Our midfield doesn't create enough of anything and I think Ayew often drops deeper than he should to try and enginner something. That probably compromises him in terms of being around the box to score. It's often Ayew who injects some zip into our play and grabs the game with his runs.

Yep, he suffers from doing the right things in the wrong areas of the pitch.  When he came on against leeds there were a couple of times that he picked the ball up near the edge of our box 2 yards in front of the defence with Jedinak offering him a forward pass.  Ayew has no place being in those areas of the pitch but if we insist on playing him as a wide midfielder with a need to track back he'll end up there far more often than he should.

Agree with this. When him and Grealish came on against Brighton, they looked like they'd tear their defence apart every time.

People who finish statements with 'end of' are annoying as shit.
