Agreed Hengs, i think he gets unfair criticism at times.
Yeah its mad how one moment he looks like a complete clown trying to play football then the next he pulls out a goal, assist or great bit of skill.
Love Sonny though and agree, 15 goals would be a fantastic season for him.
Poch needs to start playing Nkoudou more, he should have started yesterday and was disappointed he didn't.
I'm not a fan really, only really good against the lesser sides.
Lazy in defence, often not tracking his run, and greedy in attack. Can allow for his greediness against the likes of a Watford/Burnley etc as we will get multiple chances to attack and his skill will shine through. Against the bigger and better sides when you need to be more calculated and clinical he is the wrong guy for the job.

He was awesome against City
I do get your point though, tends to go missing in the big games.
You can't be too overcritical. We wanted an improved season from him and we've got it. As many goals this season in half as many games. He should reach double figures for the league which is not bad at all for a winger.

He's a decent player Son. On his day he can look like a world beater but other times he looks hopeless. That being said his goal ratio is excellent this season and he's a really important player for us be it starting just behind Kane or coming off the bench. Good player
Good little player. Very unpredictable with the ability to go either side combined with pace. Would like to see him add a bit more composure to his game because at times he looks to be a bit of a headless chicken, but still, he is much better than Lennon whom he effectively replaced in our squad.
I love clown shoes. for 60 mins he looks like he couldn't trap a bag of cement, then he will dribbled three men and stick it in the top corner
clown shoes you frustrating caaaant
Did you come up with the "clown shoes" name Chronic?
Clown shoes was going to be the title
Cheers guys good little discussion.

frustrating player though

Where's chicken?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Good question. I am beginning to miss him a tiny bit
We'll see chicken as soon as Lamela returns from injury.
He is a valuable player to have in the squad. I still expect a bit better from him if I am honest, he can lose the ball quite cheaply sometimes, and his finishing could be bettter.
He had a good scoring record last season by minutes played, it was just fragmented. About 1 every 270 mins I think.
This season it is actually quite impressive:
6 PL goals in 900 mins or so. Equivalent to 10 games
8 in 1485 mins in total. Equivalent to about 17 games
Good season, hope to see more
If he can improve his decision-making and awareness he'll be a very good player.
He can shoot with either foot, he can dribble and he's versatile. Just appears to be one of those players who picks the wrong option when he's got time to make a decision (one-on-one in Monaco) as opposed to little time at all (goal vs Swansea). Hopefully he'll grow out of that.
Gone up another level since this. Fantastic player for us
