That’s your opinion mate.
Every commentator who has seen Isidor play at any sort of length say he is not a no.9 who can battle with centre halves and hold up the ball, win headers etc. They say he’s best used on the left hand side of a front 3.
Given Mayenda also struggles against centre halves to hold up ball, I’d say we need 2 players of this type.

The Zenit manager obviously didn’t agree with the commentators cos he pretty much exclusively used him thru the middle.

Well it’s not my opinion it’s literally what the bloke himself said in his interview when he signed. I’m a striker who can also play out wide. The article on the club website when he signed also said striker.

Reading between the lines, we’ve likely moved on to other targets and had a breakthrough.
Funny that mind, given we had all our eggs in one basket iirc.

Fair enough if so but I wouldn’t be at all surprised if this is revisited before 11 tomorrow night.

Will people ever let it go about not replacing Quinn
 
I was convinced the other day we wouldn’t sign anyone up front and was called a doom monger among other things, but I believe they will rest on their laurels and think they are content with how things have gone, I really hope I’m wrong as I believe with a couple of good additions we could finish in automatics
