I thought about this yesterday. I’d say that as a footballer he is as good as
Grant Holt. Maybe even better and certainly younger.
However, the teams around and above us are far better than they were back then, and Josh arrives as a young man straight into a new country and the premier league so hasn’t been able to prove himself in the prem like Holt did. Also, Holt had a lot more creativity behind him, including Hoolahan.
Not going to compare him to Pukki as they are such different players.
