Generally was pretty poor, but then a couple of times I saw him pop up and run down a ball or chase a Albion player to win back possession. First game back after the break, odd surface, probably hard to get motivated for that kind of game whoever you are.

Been a couple of these games where he has not impressed but ended the game with a goal, the "apart from scoring a goal…" argument is the property of Griffiths' critics so will avoid that approach.

Hopefully, he gets into a run and starts tearing these kind of defences apart, but hard to complain when he performs in the big games. We are lucky to have two strikers who individually excel in the two different scenarios we regularly encounter.

Who'd take 30m now including a 6 month loan back to us to finish the season?
Me.

£30 million is a major number - doubling our previous outgoing fee - and is the big target. The six-month deal helps with treble quest and we get several months to plan for afterwards.

I doubt he'll be here for anymore than 2 years anyhow and I doubt we'll get more than £30m in that time (perhaps less if he has a bad season next year). It might give us a headache for CL qualifiers but I reckon this squad should manage qualification without Dembele anyhow.

It's gamble I'd take.
there is not a club in the world would pay £30 million for a player and then let the selling club keep said player for another 6 months .if they are parting with that kind of cash they would have the guy at their ground holding up his new shirt with his name and number on it

Not his best performance today but nonetheless he's now on 20 goals for the season :thumbsup:
I remember quite a few posters said Moussa wouldn't get near 20 for the season. Next target is 30.

Not his best game, but still got a goal. There were a few good crosses into the box that were just right for attacking but the centre-half got to clear without even jumping. Mousa could have grabbed a couple more if he'd been a bit more direct.

His games about holding the ball up and laying it on. We need to hit him earlier to allow him to bring others into it
