I think we forget the new criteria for new players being signed under Potter now.

Once the dickhead test had been passed, players must be confident on the ball, have great control and touch and be able to play quick one touch football. That applies to Strikers as much as it does Centre Backs.

Kean is quick, strong, powerful and has an eye to goal but he really doesn’t look like a player who can drop deep and join in with some one touch football like Maupay can.

Once you start viewing potential signings through the Potter prysm, it’s fairly easy to see why we are/were after players like Zeqiri, Nunez and Edouard and why we won’t be signing players like Kean or Origi. It’s not that these players aren’t good, they just don’t fit Potter’s mould.

Agree to a certain degree but being that little bit different is his attraction. He is an out & out striker who is greedy, powerful and has an eye for goal, he is only young and would learn Potters tactics to an extent. Having another forward similar to Connolly & Maupay, a bee & wasp would not change our lack of goal power. We need a bit of a bull to complement the bee or the wasp. Agree Potter may not have the same opinion though.
