Like has been mentioned before, might be worth trying him as a centre forward type, similar to Vardy.Bit late to trial it in cup games, though
El Gahzi showed how difficult it was for him to be a striker against Leicester other day....

He does have some talent as proven by assists etc but I’m coming to the conclusion he just lacks the mentality or physicality to impose himself in this league. He really has struggled with the step up in quality and his form has massively suffered.

Nobody's talking about John McGinn.
Yep, mentally weak is very harsh and with no real proof to back it up.
