Striker Debate: Should it now be Watkins, Malen or both?

[Russ aka Big Nose]

He's a better finisher than Watkins but he can't link play like Watkins can. However, to have two great strikers that are so different is a great problem for the manager to have. Presently, I reckon the last 30 mins of a game is just right.

That's fair assessment.
Starting Watkins and Duran together would be interesting combo though but it can impact dynamics of the team
Real Madrid have adapted with Mbappe so it's funding right system for these two to play together for me.

It also means not having to play Ollie every minute of every game - which is useful in terms of his recovery between games.

And without jinxing it, fewer minutes for key players is useful as fatigued players are more likely to get injured. UTV

Jesus, no. That would be akin to Demitri teaching English.

Just looking at some of the previous posts, he seems to be engaging each reply individually and berating those that haven’t handed their home work in yet…

But who do you think should play? Watkins, Duran or both?

[Clark W Griswold]

I wouldn't play either, they're shite. I'd play Rogers, Bailey and Buendia.

Probably get an F for that.

Well if people will engage with the tech college AI collective this is what you get.

Whose legs? Watkins or Duran's? Or both?

Ok I sense you're annoyed I will endeavour not to keep bumping this thread if I find that people are posting on other threads when technically should be debating here.
Mentioning Christ and the good lord though perhaps in not the most prayerful terms but get the emphasis so take it from me I will write here only where deemed necessary but most importantly do my best not to put other comments from other threads here unless really need too !
Point taken Corey.

The fact that Watkins and Duran have such different styles is a great problem for our manager to have and a nightmare for the opposition manager to have. Duran is the better finisher which he's proved in devastating fashion. I don't think Unai's going to start many if any games with both on the pitch but I think we'll finish plenty with them both on the pitch.

Can people wait till weekend to carry on discussing I don't want to miss out here but have over 200 pages of reading the Israel / Palestine thread on off topic.

Thank you.
