I see Akpom up top only personally. In the box where his finishing ia deadly. Let him and Isidor and Mayenda battle it out. Shown we can play two up top as well.
I think he’d thrive in that front two with Isidor and being the deeper one out of the two

If we go 2 up top who you reckon misses out in the midfield? I don’t think ELF will be on the left for long. Some big decisions going to be made re selection. Great problem to have

If it were a front 2 Isidor would certainly be the one to come and join deeper for me.
Wasn't the period in which his goalscoring really exploded for Boro when he was playing more as a 10 off Archer?

Was that perhaps how he was able to find that space in the box, arriving a bit later rather than being directly up against the centre back?
 
Think we’ll try for a straight loan or with an option (not obligation) for Akpom if interest is genuine. Not an age we typically pay a fee for especially in the forward areas. Maybe a big loan fee and the wages could get it done if Ajax don’t think they need him. Reading about him, think he ticks a lot of boxes for what the squad needs now.

Not understanding the Akpom hype. 29 years old, only had one truly decent goalscoring season in his entire career, only hit double figures twice and one of those he barely scraped it. Doesn't seem in line with our recruitment policy either
