How **** is Foster?

I hate rubbishing our own but just WTF does VK see in this waste of space?

You fishing again BT ?

I’d kind of agree to a point if he’d had some service and we created lots of chances for him but we didn’t - so that makes a lot of the forwards the same doesn’t it ?

While we’re on it not knocking our own JBG - exposed today - off the pace can’t play at the level - centre mid especially- Brownhill - worst I’ve seen him for some time - twine slow and only wants to go one way,

People on here moan about Weghorst but imo anyway we’re going to need him.

The ****age Italian was decent and tried ( he has pace ) amdouni the same - quick decent just no service.

Looks like we could be getting Ramsay from Villa which is a good signing but he’s very young - however watching him he gets up and down and can pick a pass - the front men whoever plays is going to need that.

I'm not fishing army88, at present we have Weghorst (who does not want to be here), Foster (who should not be here) and Jay Rod who is "one of our own" and exempt from nasty things to say about him. I will be charitable and say perhaps a couple of seasons in the Championship with a different team (just like Barnes has) might be his best option.

That leaves us with the square root of **** all in the toughest league in the world.

VK believes in sharing the goals. We don't need a striker scoring 15 goals. Wide men is what we seem interested in buying, and they score from time to time. So enough of then solves having no striker.

All well and good Will but "the average number of goals per game in the English Premier League is 2.84. Over the 29 seasons of the Premier League, there have been a total of 29,917 goals in 11,266 matches, at an average of 2.65 goals per game. In another example, an aggregate of 85 goals happened during a Premier League season, which is an average of 2.24 goals per game."

There is no way on earth we will score around 2.65 goals per game in the EPL with Foster leading the line. I asked prior to the Mainz game where would the goals come from? The answer was zero.

I’m still not writing foster off yet - not to be pedantic either

I feel after watching yesterday that we have next to zero service for any front man at the minute - it’s a conundrum that Vincent has to solve - I know myself from playing in Germany that if you don’t keep the ball and look after it when you get it - German teams will run you to death ( you end up doing a lot of chasing and they catch you quickly - just like us yesterday).

Hard as it is to say you can’t play somewhere like there with weaknesses as they’ll find you out - ie JBG catching people and kicking them tells me just like myself and that point in my career play at a lower level or retire gracefully- I did.

Dakhil at full back didn’t work he was lost position wise - he didn’t like it at all and they exposed that

Brownhill was lost no identity in the game

Redmond was a positive
Koleosho def positive
Amdouni positive
Beyer positive

After that , mediocre was the order of the day

I’d guess we need a midfield addition at least and some better organisation- to me we looked all over the place.

I posted a starting eleven for the City game army88 but in truth I really have no idea what our strongest possible team is. We look woefully short in the middle of the park and only God knows how we are going to score goals unless VK is relying on set pieces?

Foster seems OK as a player but not as a goalscorer, but in that category he's not the only one. We should have kept hold of Ash, but that aside WW seems a better prospect than Foster or JRod.

Foster may well be a waste of space, but not all our signings are going to be a success. Bastien was the same last season, just not good enough, but it's bound to happen, I'm more concerned about getting the two or three players we still need in, where is Lokonga for instance, we've been signing him for three months now but he's still an Arsenal player.

I can't see Cork and JBG cutting it in the midfield in the EPL can you sinkov?
