Brittain 10:I personally don't think he's capitalised fully on the opportunities he's had. He looked excellent at the beginning of the season but doesn't score enough, Hernandez is much better IMO but I'd get rid of berba, macheda and Owen before getting rid of welbeck that's for sure, he shouldn't be sold yet just because if a drought, he's still just 21 bear in mind.
Chicha is better? We look like we're playing with *** man down when he's in the team. No fluidity and not enough bodies pressing the ball. By the way when Chicha was 21, playing at one of the worst leagues, he scored just 3 more than what Welbeck scored so far in the same amount of games in the PL and CL (same number of games, with Welbeck playing 8 of them on the wings). Tell me again how he's better.
Well for a start he's a much better finisher. No one can deny welbeck squanders chance after chance, whereas chicha is renowned for his opportunistic finishing. Hernandez has better movement too, whilst welbeck is content to compete with a defender for a high ball, chicha acknowledges that physically he's at a disadvantage so had the brains to get into the space and stretch a defence. Hernandez has scored around the same amount of goals as welbeck, and consider how many games more welbeck has had. Hernandez has proved he's a 20 goal a season striker when playing regularly, welbeck struggles to make 10. I don't care about when Hernandez was 21, right now he is considerably better than welbeck, simple as that.
No he isn't, his movement inside the box is better. But his finishing only looks good because of this movement that allows him to get a lot of tap ins. He scored 32 goals for us, yet the number of non tap ins are less than a handful. Only problem is that this season made it obvious he can't keep fooling defenders forever, which is why he's looking as poor as he does at the moment. Agaiin, I might as well use Berba in it, but that's not how it works and we both know it. The more experienced you are, the more clinical you get. Chicha has two, almost 3 years on Welbeck, he's more clinical but not a better finisher. And him being clinical gives us nothing when he can't help us actually get to the box. Again, when Chicha was Welbeck's age, he played in a much weaker league yet score just 3 more than Welbeck in the same number of games, and Welbeck played 8 of these as a winger instead of a striker.
