Ok, he is not a striker that makes things happen necessarily on his own and his touch is abysmal but, he is a very good striker when he has good attacking intent around him, when he isn't isolated and just expected to make things happen with balls thrown his way. In a game like today, where there is movement, where defenders are getting pulled around, he will be handful because it won't be as easy for central defenders when all they are doing is ganging up on him.
There were numerous times today I thought we had opportunities to play a ball into the box but, didn't because we didn't have a presence like him in there. He was very good at the world cup with a team that played with attacking intent, he was when he first started here before Mou went into his shell after the Pogba injury early last season. I think he'll do the same if we continue in the same way most of the time as today.
