I have a twitch followed by a lovely warm feeling

The more I see that goal against Charlton the more you realise he must be bloody tough to play against. He swarmed over the defenders like they were in quicksand and then the quickness of his feet to go past the keeper was sublime.

I really do think he will surprise a few this year
I know what you mean, Hookey, but I think other teams will bear down hard on John and Jack ... which is great news for AEG and Trezeguet / Jota. I think Smith is going to set us up a bit like Liverpool over the last 2 seasons, where Firmino effectively played at the top of the diamond, and Sane and Salah wreaked havoc.
I see our 2 wide players being very influential this season, with Wesley being the lynchpin in front of our 3 midfielders.. As long as we can retain possession and move the ball quickly, we'll be fine and great to watch.
That's pretty much how I've seen it. To me, Big Wes has been brought in not because he'll score 20 goals a season, but that he'll score 10 and set up another 20 or so. Can see us having half a dozen players on, or close to, the 10 goal mark.

It seemed to be the case at Brentford, too. They always used to have so many different goalscorers.

If you really only have a single goal threat then if a team stops him then they don't score. We have goals all over the team, especially from midfield, out wide and a serious threat from dead balls with our CD's and Conor.
Will be difficult for opposition to know who to try and nullify.

The most important thing of all is that even on a bad day and we possibly get thumped you just know the line up and tactics were to win the game and we were only let down by the unplanned individual error or a bit of genius from a better quality team / player.

And for me - I could not ask any more than that

Great news, wonder if his agent linking him with Man U got him an extra x a week. 😂

Great stuff. I have lots of favourites, lately. But I think he might be my favourite favourite.
