With all the talk of new strikers etc, I thought of Broja, who left us 4 years ago at the end of the 2021/22 season.
Since then his record reads
Chelsea 25 Games & 2 Goals (Premier League)
Fulham 8 Games 0 Goals (Premier League)
Everton 10 games 0 Goals (Premier League)
Burnley 24 games 1 Goals (Premier League)
Total 67 league games & 3 goals
In England his record including us is 100 League games and 9 goals, I suspect that there are some on here who would have him back in an instant |  |

Quite possibly the lowest pain threshold/resilience in football that I’ve seen in recent years.
I’d be amazed if any team in the Championship takes him on.
I’d feel sorry for the lad but I don’t as he’s absolutely minted having done very little. |  | | |

To coin one of your phrases, he contributed in the 2021/22 season by scoring important goals which ultimately kept us up that season.
He has been beset by injuries ever since.
A real shame.
He had the talent to go a really long way in the game.
I wouldn’t have him back now, but for 2 or 3 months he was fantastic for us. |  |

The idea was to point out how his career has nosedived, Burnley overpaid badly last summer, on transfrmarkt he was valued about £11m and they paid almost double.
Now he is worth about £5 million.
Last season for Burnley he was mainly fit, he started just 8 games, came on as a sub in another 16 and was an unused sub for another 5, he is unavailable as injured in 7 other games. and not in the squad in the remaining 2 games.
So he was fit most of last season just not very good.
You are right for about 2 months he was good for us, didn't want to know at the end

Nick you are like a broken record. On another thread you were harping on about it’s not all about stats. Since then , you have 3 times used the very same stats.
As for Broja he’s not the same player after a couple bad injuries. Of those 100 games how many were a last minute sub to close out the game? You know like you used to say Shane long did.
It took Adam Armstrong btw, 3 whole seasons in the premiership to replace Brojas goals . I’m sure you remember telling everyone how easily those goals would be covered when Broja left.

Dont take it personally, it is all about debate, if i was right about everything in football, I wouldn't be writing on here.
When I question a player, its about the player himself, not about whether Adam Armstrong scored more or less.
For the record post Southampton 9 of his sub appearances were in the last 10 minutes and I think of those 4 were 1 minute. | |
