If he was a practically a guranteed 20 a season striker we wouldn’t have got him for 45 million. As good as he is he can be very frustrating with his finishing though.

I really hope he comes good. I really do.

An interesting thing I noticed is the perception of the player over the years. I remember reading an article before he signed for Chelsea and it was bigging him up to be the next Ozil. More recently I’ve seen people commenting that at Leverkusen he was more of a player who just had a knack for popping up and scoring a lot of goals rather than a player who gets heavily involved in general play.

Very contrasting reports of his qualities.
