OMG KENNETH ZOHORE!!!!! (Leave him alone)

Sat Aug 18, 2018 7:04 pm

Zohore didn’t play MANY friendlies. He probably played about 2 or 3 in total, that’s not enough for fitness don’t care what anyone says. He has been injured for a week and a bit, and he starts today, gives his all and makes himself available doing everything he could. He missed a couple headers that should have atleast challenged the keeper I agree, but if you want to complain about our attack then blame the CHANCES. If ken had a chance on the ground in this box I’d prefer our chances. Obviously the crosses were superb when they came in, but everyone and their grandparents know Zohore isn’t great in the air. Leave him alone ffs he was SOLID today. Finish or no finish.

Unbelievable some of you. Hoilett had a MARE last week and IMO was appalling and offered nothing, yet nobody critiqued him. A week later and Hoilett Just looked near his normal self. The same needs to and WILL happen with Zohore. He needs a run of games. Stop asking for his head. We drew! We didn’t lose! Chill

Nothing wrong with people debating the pros and cons of a players performance.
His link up play and work rate was decent today.
His finishing and heading were awful and nowhere near football league standard let alone premier league.
No getting away from the fact he could and should have scored twice.
Even his own team mates were getting frustrated.

The only problem is we say practically the same thing about him every week. If we are not playing to his strengths, should we be using a different striker. I don't know what the answer is, but Zohore is a striker who is dreadful in the air and does not score goals. He does well in other areas, but seems to lack certain qualities you would expect from a number one striker. Hopefully he will come good, something I seem to say every month.

Am not a fan of zohore, am rarely critical and am not even going to complicate it like I usually do. He’s not good enough, simple as that especially at this level. Is what it is. No we don’t have another option, More than pleased with how we competed today and our transfers and getting a quality forward in is not easy but it’s the one area that will cost us.

Spot on. Prices are inflated in Jan and Warnock has said on many occasions he won't pay the rip off prices in Jan. I wouldn't bank on it.

Our wingers are going to have to provide the goals, they did it last year but it’s going to be hard for them his year. But we all knew the difficult challenge. Is what it is.
