I liked Gyokeres and Tavares as inside forwards. Only players other than O’Hare that will beat defenders.

Reminds me of Hiwula at times but I like him

I thought that too today but then thought that may just be because he was a starter last time we played a front three regularly.

In fact, inside forward on the left of a three probably suits Gyo’s attributes best.

People saying he's raw. Well yeah, he is because he has hardly played a competitive match yet. He's got a new contract, he's making a difference coming on and there's more to come

I don't think saying he is raw is a criticism. It is just acknowledging his lack of experience. I hope he can push on this season because he does offer something different. Just dont expect too much too soon.

He looks like he's bulked up a little bit, I'm not he's got the right skills to play O'Hare's role though

Who said he should play O'Hares role? Tavares and Palmer should not be compared to O'Hare. All 3 are different types of player who potentially have something different to offer.

Neither Tavares or Palmer are ready to hit the ground running for different reasons. But they both have great potential to grow into the season.

As great as O'Hare is, perhaps we need a player who can come in and pose a different threat rather than just replicate it?

Tavares with his direct running caused them problems today! Perfect super sub

He offered a lot today.

I think hes done more in the mins hes had in championship...than some players have in a season.

Theres an x factor about him for sure. If he gets on the pitch he thoroughly deserves every min he gets.

I like him as he has pace which scares defenders, and it’s especially important for us, as nobody else offensively does.

Also looked like we tried to use his running more today which was great, as it was frustrating last year we seemed to miss the point and either go to his feet or not at all.

Touch was a bit off again, but looked more confident overall and he’s a great weapon to have. Can only see him getting better as he grows in experience and confidence.
