That Vardy. He's fucking useless at heading away corners.
Except Wor Andy and Vardy don't play in Fornal's position, they're both No.9s Fornal's ain't!
You've missed the point.

He's done alright, Spanish U21 international, he was our best attacking player for a period in the middle of the season. He brought more to the team than Lanzini/Anderson have done, he has dipped in form a little in terms of output towards end of the season though.

If he was an experienced 27/28 year old in his prime years I'd be disappointed but for a 21/22 year old in his first season at the club, I am fine with how he has performed, hopefully he can kick on next season.

Yes good post and the bit I’ve quoted above will be in no uncertain terms down to the role that the 🦖 appears to have asked him to perform.

Garnett, I respect you as a 'proper' West Ham fan, one of the few on here, and you're better than just posting stats to justify a player.
Say what you see not read.
I will say he is worse than players we've had in the position he often plays, who were not all that, like Mark Robson, Matty Holmes, Keith Rowland.
Hi again, I`m curious as to why you think I am more of a "proper" fan than others on here, I do regard it a a compliment, thank you.
