TBH I agree that there's no real need for him in the current squad. I was just picking apart the stats thing. He's a good striker but I personally think Murray is better.
Sorry for the stat pedantry, I was just a bit bored.
You know what people are referring to when they quote a goal to game ratio :-)
His stats aren't too dissimilar to Murrays.

And he actually had a 21 game run where he only scored 4 goals. See what I did there?
Not entirely true. I know you're exaggerating for effect, but the longest run he had without scoring in 2013/14 was 6 games. He didn't score a hat trick that season and only got a brace twice.

In his first season, one hat trick...
