I think he's our best available striker for those reasons. Weimann is probably a better finisher, but he can't offer us what Asante can in terms of nuisance factor. Especially playing Southampton away, we need someone who can help us get up the pitch.

I also thought he played really well versus Preston, and did okay on Saturday too.

Yes he played well against Preston but from two very easy sitters one of which my late granny could have scored! We need someone who knows where the net is and goals win matches. I will be seething on Friday if the same easy sitters are missed FFS! Good shout with AJ up front as lovely crosses come in from Fellows and Johnston and long throws from Furlong but nobody there!! Can Asante head the ball?

Yes we know he works hard - links up play blah blah but we will get 2/3 chances probably on Friday.............
