Discussion: Tammy Abraham Split thread.

[st albans]

Strange isn’t it. If you’d have asked who I’d want between ayew and this guy in this summer with both at Swansea. Ayew winning player of th year and scoring 11 goals in a poor team, with Abraham hardly playing it would seem like a no brainier getting ayew in

In fairness, I think Ayew played mainly as a wide attacking forward or a #10. He actually set Abraham up for a couple of sitters that he missed from yards out.

It is the refusal by Roy to recognize that the most effective position for Ayew is when played in a wide attacking role is when he has been at his best, it's that stubborness which makes it frustrating for most fans.
Ideally and with Benteke out, i would like to see us go with a Front Three of Ayew..Sorloth..Zaha as possibly being our most productive way of getting goals especially now we have a run of winnable games coming up when we must aim to gain maximum points if possible.
Yes without doubt Ayew has been a massive disappointment since joining, but on the flip side has proved in the premiership he CAN score goals if played in the correct role, and he needs to be given that opportunity before being sent back as a flop.

More opportunity to.play, easier to grab some goals to build confidence etc etc

Ayew tried to get down the wing against Man Utd.

He got out-paced and out-muscled by a player who was holding his groin.

I wouldn't want him anywhere near the 18.

We all know Tammy is on a season long loan at Villa , I know it will probably never happen but is it possible to buy a player from the parent club whilst he is on loan ?
I'm sure something like this happend with a player going between Wolves and Bournemouth .

Abraham was dropped by Swansea to the bench and struggled to get into the side despite them being down the bottom and not able to score . If you read comments from their message boards , he wasn't that well thought of , poor touch , slow in thought and not clinical .

And yet the same fans voted Ayew their player of the season. .

[Latvian]

Can we stop trying to be Swansea? No goals up front, getting Ayew, having a highly-rated midfielder from Europe trying to adapt to the English game...

Not excited by this one.

[jaspercpfc]

finishing has been appalling tonight. Just fluffed a chance from 3 yards with only the keeper to beat

[Nostrils]

Bolasie just gave him an absolute sitter. Yet again...

[RAB]

That miss has to be seen to be believed. Shocking! It's like he had three legs.

[orp pisshead1]

Coming from a baggies family I was pleased with his performance last night . He’s average at best.

Fit in beautifully up front with benteke then

[Thefunkymonk]

Linked again today. 12 goals in 16 this season.

Seems to be prolific in championship but scored less than ayew for Swansea

[cpfc4evandeva]

He does seem to miss a lot of chances, but he still scores a decent amount. Murray was a bit like that - it's arguably the sign of a striker who has a great instinct for putting himself in goalscoring positions.

Another ******* gamble. We will then have the strike force that got Swansea relegated last season! Way to Roy!

[Latvian Eagle]

Rather sign Abraham and send Ayew back.
