Ali J is primarily a winger, (albiet one with a good record of scoring goals for club and country) and that’s how we’ve used him.
Locadia was bought as a striker and has only played in a central position this season
I haven’t written him off by any means, but to get anywhere near 10 -15 goals he’ll have to displace Murray or Gross, (not to mention Andone or anyone else we sign in January) from the line up.
That is unless he can get to double figures through sub appearances. Highly unlikely as Hughton...
