Quote from: Hockley Lion on April 05, 2021, 10:57:42 PMIn case anyone is interested here's a few stats.AEG's goal at Chelsea got us a point. His goal at Wolves in extra time got us 3 points, and his goal against Leeds also got us the 3 points. He's scored 7 goals this season like Jack and got us 7 points with 3 of them. His minute's per goal is 176. Bettered only by Barry who scored 1 in 90 min.Question is. Is that a bad return?It doesn’t actually work like that though,does it.

The goal ratio is fine. Good, even. The assists less so. Ideally you also want a winger tying up at least two markers where possible, and freeing space for others. He did that a bit in the Championship, less so in the top flight. So far.
Barry who?

More assists would be great😀. My point is in the games I mentioned his goals alone got us the points. 3 goals, 7 points. They were the only goals we scored in those games. I don't think it's a bad return really. He gets so much stick so much of the time from some on here. I'm just trying to cut him some slack. Utv.
Just to add to that, I do like him as a player - and have done since he had that Championship Ronaldo look about him back in 2018/19. The other things may come in time (hopefully for us) if he starts to believe in himself a bit more.

The other things may come in time (hopefully for us) if he starts to believe in himself a bit more. When he's good he's very good, but when he's bad he's an absolute liability. On an off game he makes bad decision after bad decision, and all sorts of unforced errors. He's 26 in less than a month, so for a winger should really be in his prime.

He's had almost 2 full seasons to establish himself at this level, he's bagged a couple of fabulous goals along the way but he's ineffective far too often, makes some poor decisions and on occasion goes completely missing, wouldn't be at all surprised if he was offloaded in the summer & that's a shame.
