Agree - he's had less leeway because of the expectations that sets

and concur with everyone that he seems to be the latest 'out of position' player in our ranks, which isn't going to improve his tally anytime soon.
Having said all that, I've never been that convinced by him as a striker either, which is why I thought a loan spell was still needed, especially after injury.
But I know very little.
