:lolol: Top scorer 3 years in a row yet only an 'Amber'

he's at the upper end of amber- not consistent enough to get into green in my opinion

Looking at your amber list it’s a travesty you have Ryan in there. For two seasons he was an absolutely integral part of us staying up. How on earth can he be in the same list as Button and Steele who almost literally didn’t play a single game because he was so consistent. Did he personally do you or your family some harm?!?!

like Maupay he's probably at the upper end of amber, not quite good enough for green (in my opinion)

similarly, Steele and Button not bad enough to be in the red- both signed as back up goalies who did reasonably well when called upon

If you think Maupay's goals to games ratio makes him a legend, you're insulting other 'legend' strikers we've signed ! Depends how far you go back with your supporting, I suppose ? No offence intended.

There is more to being a striker than scoring goals. He always puts a shift in.

Glenn Murray scored 26 PL goals in 96 PL games for us, Maupay 26 goals in 102. Goals per game not a lot a different, but there is more to it than just that.

Yep! Matty sold him some furniture when he was leaving the club and it never got delivered.

Sorry to disagree, but a strikers' role is to bag, not 'put a shift in' , our defence does that every game ie clean sheets, it's the finishing letting us down and has done since Murray's departure.
