So I'm not agreeing with Ozim in any shape, way or form whatsoever, but Welbo scores that chance we probably win the game.

Sure it was a cute effort, nice technique, clever imagination, one that Sanogo probably slashes wide with his right stump. But ultimately it's a shot off target from a one-on-one, the kind of chance you put away if you are to win big games. Having watched it several times I think a low instep curler inside the near post would have been almost impossible to stop, the percentage play.

Football is about decision making as well as execution.

So maybe it was the wrong decision, maybe it wasn't. Bergkamp always used to like chips because he said that was where the space was. But that was Bergkamp, one of, if not the finest technician ever to play for us. If Welbo is to become our no. 9, a bit of ruthlessness might not go amiss.

Nevertheless I think it was an encouraging debut. We have a forward who has enough touch to join the link up play and enough mobility to run beyond. He's not "Falcoa", but then, who the hell is?
