    That's how he could fit into a 352. As a 10 behind the strikers, or as one of the strikers.

    He said his preferred position is as a 10 already..

    Him and Taylor on the left just doesn't work as neither is quick..

    He worked well when he played with Boli running beyond and making space for him to cut in..

    Now he cuts in and due to Taylor being unable to cover the width....he's snuffed out more by 1 or 2 player's..

    He’s a strange one for sure. Bundles of talent but has struggled so far in the league this term (most have in fairness).

    Doesn’t fit into the 3-5-2 unless it’s as the more advanced player centrally

    Hes a 10.

    For me.

    Too slow to be a winger and does all his damage centrally.

    He’s not that hot, imo.

    I take it he wasn’t injured? Lennon musta seen how the first half went and thought if Well get a goal here in the second and I don’t have a striker on by then this could be dangerous.

    Shown glimpses of his class but just doesn’t impose himself on games as he should, kind of disappointing so far.

    I'd like to see us go on a run of matches without him in the team. Not convinced he offers much particularly against decent opposition.

    I'm questioning myself, is he able to play Wingback in a 352

    What’s he meant to do? He’s had no support and no one to support in that striker role. Soon as we are back actually playing a forward line he’ll show

    Getting a hard time on Open Goal. John Higgins saying Moi doesn’t do it for him. Yet at the same time they are defending Forrest.

    If you can’t see Moi is unreal then you’re needing your eyes checked.

    He’s definitely a classy player but hasn’t made as big an impact as I expected he would when he first signed.

    Started off on fire but hasn’t really hit those standards since returning from injury imo.

    Got complete faith in him to light it up this season though.

    Agree with this. His quality is easy to see.

    His quality is easy to see.

    But as someone who banged on about signing him for 3 year, he hasnt done enough in the league for me yet.

    I dont think Taylor is helping, doesnt seem to be much of a partnership there.

    I think as a no10 hed be more use to use. In all honesty.

    He's done fine, but there's more to come. Difficult to single anyone out since the season started, it's not been great.

    No been at what you'd call his best but he's still been decent..

    On Wednesday he should've had a legit * finish over the keeper and that forst touch he killed stone dead out the air in the box was world class..

    Get a quick left back bombing on infront of him to create the space or stick him in the 10..

    Definitely much more to come from him and when we're firing, he'll be instrumental..

    Mo worried about Mo in the slightest..
