Much like Arsenal we scored seven against Newcastle, then we managed only five in the next five....before last night.
That's the thing though, his stats don't look bad but if you're scoring goals in small burst it distorts the stats somewhat.

A player who can score regularly is much more valuable than a player who scores 4-5 in one game and then none for the next 10 games.

He's not a bad player and a good sub for sure, but we need better to be successful as he'll never be top notch.
