Scored another.

Two headers in a game from a player “not good in the air” they say

I don't think we will ever get another chance to sign a goal a game striker. This is like if Cristiano Ronaldo or Messi were on the open market in 2010, except he's 21 no 25/26, and he's only going to cost €75m.

He is going to score 50 goals a season every season if he stays fit, it's the kind of signing that will define a club for a decade, we absolutely have to seal this.

73 in 72 for Dortmund now.

23 in 19 CL games.

Wondering if there are stats to support that claim. Never really focused on that but it’s interesting to hear that people say that and I’m assuming it’s from the forum.

It's mostly that he doesn't score many headers, and most of the ones he does are uncontested (like the kind Sterling and Mahrez scored in recent games).

It was true until some point in the last season when he had never scored a header before, but he’s been scoring them ever since

Ahh. Makes sense. I don’t watch Dortmund as much as I did last season. Even with his height, I’m assuming they played more passes on the ground, as his goal scoring speaks for itself but he does have the leap at least.

Fair enough. Cheers for the response.

He would be a game changer for us, and considering the level we are at already, thats would scare the shit out of every team we play.
