A lot of Rajović’s criticism, I believe, was because we were, until this season, asking him to be a Thierry Henry, break-at-pace striker. But he’s Malcolm McDonald.
Fair point. In days past, Bobby Bell and Ken Nicholas were full backs; Mickey Benning and Freddie Bunce were wingers. Today we have wing backs who are expected to do both roles to some extent. There are very few goal hangers, as we used to call them, as they are expected to do so much more.
Yeah, I agree, ofh, but ultimately if his primary job is goal-scoring and he can deliver on that, I would accept non-ability to do other things the same as I would accept a centre-back who stops nearly all opponents scoring but isn’t the greatest passer. Besides, I think Rajović did his bit to support, it’s just he couldn’t break at speed. Sort of expecting a carthorse to be able to pull the cart and win point-to-point.
Sounds like they're as bad as Watford fans - underwhelmed by the signing, but angry that they could lose him due to the recall clause. Rajovic must be wondering what he's walked into - apparently 4th choice striker there...
I remember the criticism of Ross Jenkins who became a key player for us....a more rounded player yes. .but there are parallels
