I am a massive fan of Andre, always have been. Great servant for us but always seemed to be a bit of a square peg, not a striker and not a winger.
Last year I was making the point that there is a massive difference between a natural striker and a forward.
You are now seeing why.
Prioe after 15 games: 9 goals. 3 assists (12 DGC)
Ayew after 15 games of last season: 7 goals. 2 assists. (9
DGC)
DGC - direct goal contributions
There is absolutely not a chance in hell I would take that deal if it was offered from the Qatar club. Even if the salary demands were the same as Piroe.
Straight swap Ayew for Piroe -any takers?

At 22 Piroe has 8 years on Ayew and is significantly cheaper.
But who knows what Ayew would have achieved in a team that plays football?
So straight swap? No. |  |

TBH I prefer Paterson and Ntcham behind Piroe, Ayew would just unbalance the side. |  | | |

Ayew behind Piroe would turn this team from playoff contending to automatic pushers. Let's not understate him after two brilliant seasons here. | | | |

Yeah.
Never bought into the "unbalancing the side" thing. Even if it were true, a free role much like Paterson has would have the effect of negating that. |  |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

Think you’ve answered the question in your second paragraph. Gone are the days of a traditional RB/LB, a lot more are asked of these positions now. Look at Chilwell and Alexander-Arnold as other examples. |
The trouble with answering your own questions is, you can easily be wrong! So thank you for agreeing with me.
Dr W, Ayew could easilu unbalance the team. We pass....a lot. Ayew always held onto the ball, even in a team where we weren't passing as often he held onto the ball a lot and often ignored players in better positions. That he was good enough to produce something much of the time is irrelevant now, he doesn't fit in this team as well as Prieo, Ntcham or Pato do.
In my opinion of course. | |
