Anyone who doesn’t get it is, quite frankly, a #@&%!.

Imagine if he moved like a striker

Good striker and will get better in a settled side next season.

Good return for what is essentially a rookie striker who has had an outrageous amount of pressure put on him

The telling part is the 2 assists. Just shows how often he gets isolated without support. Not only do we need a marked improvement in the service he gets, we also need to improve the number of bodies we get in and around him when he’s trying to protect the ball.

Am I right in thinking he's been dropped for 2 games and hasn't made a snidey insta post or liked a nob heads tweet? But instead decided to keep his head down, work hard and has got his rewards for it?

It will never catch on

Toney is the guy for him to learn from,I like Martinez but apparently the pricetag is going to be too high

should have had assists for rashford and nacho in the last two games. just poor execution.

Looks like Jem is joining Marlo on that lonely path.

not at all. have been a consistent supporter of rasmus. there is no point in pretending that he didn't fluff a couple of fairly simple passes, though. room for improvement.

He is very good with the ball at his feet and a little bit of space to move into. His movement is the main area to work on imo, and part of the lack of service is that he isnt always available esp on crosses. I sit pretty much parallel with the 18 yard box at OT and often there is nothing for the crosser to hit (assuming they could ever beat the first man). Also, there could be improvement when he's back to goal, e.g., first touch. Should not be the main striker at a club if this stature but has done ok this season

State of that little ginger @#%&! with his knee high socks and manbag mincing down the steps.

Makes you yearn for the days when football fans slashed and bludgeoned one another.

Well it is Brighton.............

Brilliant when he came on. A right handful. That lung-busting, battling tussle he had right at the death to make sure of the win

He did look bang up for it and it was a “for the team” style effort.

He was exactly what we needed at the time.

Fought them off every time but that last one… gained control then stroked it back into space/midfield where we had time to keep it away from them before the final whistle. All he needs is a partner.
