8 goals in 1518 minutes. So a goal every 190 minutes which is decent. Compared with Joselu's 4 goals in 1411 minutes this season, or a goal every 353 minutes. Or how about Perez's 2 goals in 1359 mins, at a goal every 680 minutes. Or Gayle, 3 goals, 1057 mins, 352 mins/goal. He looks like a massive improvement, on paper at least.
Would give anyone a go at this stage,fed looking at us miss sitters every week.If we sign a forward does that mean Rafa will stop bringing on defenders when we're losing?
Stats are all about how they're spun. Slimani plays in an often one striker system competing with Vardy, Okazaki and Iheanacho. The Prem is hard, it's how you adjust to it. Yet he's still scored with far more proficiency and I daresay his conversion rate on chances is hugely better than anyone we've had since Shearer played. BTW - far from done, odds on him joining are still a loooong 5/1. Doubt it'll even be him. There's a nice little rumour popped up about Davie Selke. Looks a super talent.
