Couldn't hit a cows arse with a banjo- Watmore and Wyke

I'm puzzled at the constant references to Watmore as a Striker.

This was mentioned when he first came to us from none-league, but as he worked his way through our Academy system he mostly played wide.
Then of course there is the rather telling statistic that shows he rarely scores.

But defenders must hate him for his pace and direct style. He causes panic and this creates chances for those around him.
Add to this his recent injuries and we have even less right to expect goals from him at present.

Give him time.
If he fully recovers he will be a handful, certainly at this level and Ch/Shp level.
And he will score goals.
I don't expect him to be the twenty goal a season striker we would like but he will come up with more than his fair share.

It's not his recent injuries he's suffering from.
It's unrealistic expectations from Fans.

Ch/Shp level whats Albert and the skunks got to do with it..........Chip Shop level........... I know what you meant just playing devil's advocate.

Used to play up top for Altrincham and score bagfuls I think mate, but correct he never has been a striker here, and hasn’t been coached that way.
