His “original position” meaning years ago prior to Premier League. For all of the arguments against him he is a proven, successful, central forward player in the top flight. He absolutely is not a wide forward, and should definitely not play there.

I can't wait until we get this over the line we really need numbers coming in.

Erm, hasn’t Tammy already got a thread?
There is, but apparently it means NOTHING to some people.

I spent ages looking for it the other day! Didn't realise it was in other football now.

Blues have bid 30m.
Have it on good authority that he would happily play for Birmingham City for nothing because it's a much bigger club then the Vile, plus they have more chimney pots,we are doomed

I seem to remember he scored quite a few goals.
But also missed loads of chances.

He can take a penalty too which is a bonus if we ever get one again.

The one he took against the Albion in the play offs I’m sure it glanced off johnstones boot.  Never had such a trouser filling moment.

For all of the arguments against him he is a proven, successful, central forward player in the top flight.

Is he though? Genuine question.

Yeah, I'd say so. 8 in 39 for Swansea as a 19 year old. 18 in 47 and 12 in 32 for Chelsea (all competitions, but the ratio for just league games in those seasons is basically the same).

Those are perfectly decent numbers to be considered "proven" and "successful" I'd say.

There are arguments that he might not play ahead of Watkins enough to get those numbers for us, or that his injuries and time abroad might have diminished him, but his record up to now of playing in the Premier League is solid enough.

Sorry I was referring to Ollie in the context of the idea to shove him out wide.

Yeah I think it did, he went down the middle and Johnstone nearly kept it out with his trailing legs as he dived.

Indeed, but some can control a pass.
