Looks like a winger to me.

Most of his goals were either on the break against poorly positioned defenders or just came from sloppy defending, it says alot about the French league more than anything, I really don't trust Ligue 1 anymore.

That's a very fair assessment, I think people need to remember in our EPL games we spend hardly any time counter-attacking. We face teams which are scared to come out and attack so we do not have much space in attack.
Players like Gervinho, Walcott thrive on running into space, their touch is not great so they are a bit useless when the space is closed and teams sit back.
PEA looks great running into space but his close control in the box isn't amazing, and I do not see much creative passing into space to help break down a packed defense. I would say his overall game is better than Walcott and Gervinho, and he has great finishing and pace though.
First priority our team needs upfront is some craft, creativity and skill in the box, we have enough headless runners and brainless dribblers and blunt players like Podolski.

and is preparing a 40m Euro offer.
With Ox going out.... You post some **** ****.he's a good player, i would take him he has the ability to become lethal and he's good at bringing other players into play. Him reus and hummels should suffice
with giroud and ox going out.
