If he played for Man City he could be their top scorer

It would be like playing for us in the Championship. They are good enough to dominate possession while he finds space with his movement, and then good enough to then get the ball to him on the ground.

For at least 90% of Prem teams he'd be worse than they currently have though given the demands placed on strikers these days (just being a good finished isn't enough any more).

In the context of this PL season, Pukki's eight goals is pretty impressive (NCFC) - jamesward, Mar 11, 10:12:33
- And imagine (NCFC) - paulg, Mar 11, 11:05:38
- He's played nearly every minute of every game though (NCFC) - mr carra, Mar 11, 10:37:39
  - Playing fewer minutes sometimes better (NCFC) - paulg, Mar 11, 12:07:25
  - Some reasonable points (NCFC) - jamesward, Mar 11, 11:15:57
  - and there's the rub (NCFC) - CWC, Mar 11, 10:51:55
    - If he played for Man City he could be their top scorer (NCFC) - mr carra, Mar 11, 10:57:51
  - Stands up well to some of those on minutes played (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, Mar 11, 10:47:26
    - I think most West Ham and Spurs fans will tell you though... (NCFC) - mr carra, Mar 11, 10:51:18
- I love him. I love watching him, even this season when everything's been a pretty hard (NCFC) - Bravo win or die, Mar 11, 10:29:29
- 3 pens. Still think he needs a second striker or number 10 to help him out (n/m) (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Mar 11, 10:18:46
  - He does. But 10 goals + in the Prem has always been a decent return (NCFC) - jamesward, Mar 11, 10:20:42
    - It is, just a pity no one else is chipping in with 5 or 6 goals from midfield or the wing (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Mar 11, 10:23:24
    - He's scored 44% of our PL goals over two seasons (NCFC) - jamesward, Mar 11, 10:23:12
- quite a few pens in there though. And Sarg is the only other player >1 (n/m) (NCFC) - munter, Mar 11, 10:16:05
  - Kane, Ronaldo and Maupay (I think) also take pens (NCFC) - jamesward, Mar 11, 10:18:10
    - true. Pukki normally converts them - i always assume he will score when he takes (n/m) (NCFC) - munter, Mar 11, 10:25:05
