In what way could he be our taraabt when he's a completely different type of player?

A lot of our fans love to built up a player just to knock them down again.
Certainly a different type of player to what we had last season and gives us another option.

He was always big, strong and rapid and always played through the middle rather than out wide - I'd guess he won't be your typical 4-4-2 type of winger but could be ideal in 4-3-3.
I remember someone telling me just after he'd gone into Wolves academy aged around 14 that his mum had moved to America but he'd stayed behind, to try to make the grade as a player. I remember thinking that was a tad optimistic at the time but hats off to him - it's paid off.
I personally wonder if a player will suddenly come good at 25 and also suspect that he would have been fired up, playing against what was a local team of his. I also think that almost anyone would benefit by playing alongside Zohore (if Saturday was anything to go by). For me, I think if Zohore continues like that, it will be impossible for you to keep him. That in turn will have a knock on effect on Hoilet and Laing.

Nobody I spoke with in the lead up to the new season had high hopes of us succeeding under Bruce. Many now want him gone (myself included). I doubt they will be patient and usually, when our fans turn, it is only a matter of time before the manager is sacked. The one saving grace for Bruce is that there are few alternatives about. There is Dean Smith at Brentford who is a Villa fan or Karanka (IMO). Both of whom would be gambles. The Fulham manager apparently has a £5mil release clause which prices him out.
Bruce has been in charge for 39 games and we have only scored more than 1 goal in around 8 of these. The football is appalling and results haven't been great. It isn't about two games this season, it is about the entire 39 played under Bruce and the fact that we are no further forward. than when he joined.
