Because although Savinho is progressing he doesn't have the strike rate or assist rate of Semenyo.

Yes I get that but I think you need to work in the Pep factor and also second season syndrome.
Whilst there has been too much disappointment from Savio so far and whilst I do know my faculties are wannabe- but I’ve seen some signs he is getting his act together. Mahrez was known as FFS for a reason - once he got his act together with quick and positive decision making he became really good. I’d rather keep Savio

Why do Citg fans want Semenyo? We've got Doku and Savinho who are both upping their levels right now

This is the injury thread currently Doku and Bobb are injured, we have one fit winger.
Semenyo offers something a bit different to what we have. Even when fully fit Bobb has not recently shown himself to be the best.
He may improve but having something a bit different with physicality and a shot is no bad thing. Savinho may improve to be a better distributor and dribbler and even ultimately a better shot but he will never have Semenyo's physicality.

Seen no evidence of a better shot thus far!

In 2018-19 we had Sterling Sané Mahrez BSilva Foden (when the latter two mostly played on the wings) and even Jesus as options for our wide forward positions.

We’ve now only got Doku Cherki Savinho Bobb and then we also have Marmoush but he doesn’t suit playing on the wing and has mostly played as a centre forward in his career and BSilva and Foden (who are now both better centrally).

We have massively got room for Semenyo to come into our squad.

Semenyo can also play as a centre forward and has many times in his career. So if Marmoush ends up leaving at any point due to lack of game time in his favoured position, Semenyo could cover for Haaland.

Also, Doku is incredibly injury prone so we can’t rely on him to stay fit. This is before his current injury lay off, note how many are muscular injuries:

Semenyo has only missed 1 solitary game though injury in four seasons.

Semenyo can play both sides, really useful to have a player with his output comfortable on both sides.

He can also use both feet. Earlier on in the season I saw him score a goal with his left foot. He was on the left side of the pitch, the ball came across from the right, he hit it first time, without losing his stride, a brilliant goal.

We managed to crock Ait-Nouri pretty quickly and he had never been injured before.

The last guy we signed from Bournemouth had a similar record iirc. Soon changed when he got here…
