Looks a bit taller now. Can’t make up my mind on him. Cool composed finisher but can go through long spells without influencing things

By my reckoning he's averaging a goal or assist every 106 mins for Reims. Jesus G/A every 121 mins, Eddie G/A every 138 mins.

Output.

Should hopefully go a long way to helping us fill up the Bellingham fund.

Lol, what's going on in that league? The top 15 scorers all seem to have more goals than matches.

Edit: It seems like the "matches" column on the website I checked stopped updating after 13 rounds, while the goal column is up to date. Figures.

Balogun goal here - good composure and put his finish at the perfect height.

I really think we don't need a marquee striker anymore the way Balogun is developing. Still hedging my bet on him instead of Nketiah.

That goal is way more impressive than I thought. Outpacing Marquinhos is no mean feat and then the composure to do that facing such a huge GK like Donnaruma.

    He looked really alert didn't he - real strikers instinct to be up and away so quickly. It's been a very good loan for him so far - well done to the Arsenal loan team and to him for making it work.

    I would bet on Nketiah currently. His productivity in the premier league right now is about van Persie levels. Obviously he doesn’t look like our favourite Arsenal strikers of the past 20 years, but he’s a goal scorer.

    But there’s definitely space for both

        Claudius agreed. Eddie is doing it here and now. Defo the safe bet.

        I’d like to see Balogun get a PL loan next season. Can’t be a shortage of takers after this season.

          HomeSteak good deal. He needs 1.5 year loan minimum before he becomes a real option for us

            Balogun is on fire!

            Next season we go into CL with the perfect blend of strikers. We will keep them all happy is the question.

            P.S: big respect to Eddie. Never rated him but was in the stadium when he scored v Utd. He can still be a bit more clinical but he’s changed my mind once and for all.

            P.P.S : still think Balogun has the highest ceiling. His goal v PSG was outrageous!

                Has this come as big a surprise to everyone as it has to me? I thought he seemed talented but a million miles from top level football. I confess I haven’t watched him so no idea what his level is like in the games, but you can argue with that end product.

                  We need to tie up Balogun quickly. Scoring like that, there will be plenty of clubs looking to take him off our hands.

                  I agree that Jesus, Nketiah and Balogun should theoretically make for an ideal striking trio.
