ironic that Trabzonspor are the only team we have played in euro competition - it's not ironic but John Motson would say it was, he's big into coincidental things being ironic when they're not ironic but coincidental, Sorloth maybe one of those doogie type players that smash it below top level but are easily stopped by deter defenders, would only be a squad player for us methinks

He seemed to decline in ability during all his cameo appearances for us. His scoring record elsewhere is pretty good. Players need regular game time to improve and get to their best. Would consider recalling him in January.

For my sins, I was at both games(willo fact, TV didn't even bother to turn up to the home match)
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Really think he's worth another look if we can. Disagree about starting on the bench. Get him straight in the first team, tell him he's the man. If he starts with a goal, he might never stop.
If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities. |

COYP I thought his movement and work rate were poor so unless he has improved in those areas its a no from me. Its not impossible I said the same about Ayew when he first came but he has been Hodgenised and runs his socks off for the team.

We don't really need Sorloth except as back up to Benteke. Benteke may not be scoring but even he looks more dangerous than Sorloth. However, Sorloth is still young and is an international - he could improve while he gets game time elsewhere. Maybe he can be back up striker for us in a year or two. I suspect we will sell him before that though and buy someone half decent.
