Not been missing thru lengthy injury as yet,played in every game for LP,dont they have snippers in the Canarys.

Have any of you stood right at the top where the black iron cross is ....on Mt Teide on Tenerife.
 
Looks like Oli could be doing a BBD and having a second successive top-flight relegation battle...early days of course but Las Palmas sit second bottom, W0, D2, L3 for 6 against 10. One of their draws did however come against Real Madrid, although you can't help thinking that may end up being the highlight of their season!

Soton even worse, W0, D0, L4 for 1 against 8......they have Ipswich at home Saturday in what is probably already a 6-pointer!

No goals yet for either Oli or BBD but I do genuinely wish them both well. Oli Mac more so.

Moore already has his critics, and ours might be a very different division, but I fancy Kieffer to score more than them both added together this season.

Agree with you there mate.

Don't get the Moore negativity to be honest, but us Blades always have to have a scapegoat to hate on.

Now that Vini & Anel are back in favour and Brewster, for whatever reason, appears off limits, Moore looks like he is the man to take up the mantle!

The problem is I expect him to score at least close to their total. He is centre forward in a strong side in this league. A better point might be that I think in this side McBurnie would already have scored this season and probably BBD too. Not a dig at Moore by the way I hope he does really well.

So it was a different Moore who scored for us v QPR then?

Just FYI I know not really comparable but McBurnie hasn't scored yet for Las Palmas and has an xG of less than 1 (0.87)

Most recent game he had 0 shots and didn't last the 90 minutes.

As mentioned in shoutbox the other day, I expect him and the excitement around him to fizzle out soon at Las Palmas.
 
Yep they'd be bottom of the league if it wasn't for Valencia's disastrous start

I personally feel like Mcburnie would have been the player to make this team complete.

But you wouldn’t have had the work rate that Moore puts in Ollie jogs around Moore presses and closes down with energy and strength
He just lacks finishing and sometimes on his final ball
TBH - I was very much in the Mcburnie camp but looking at it after 6 games overall contribution to the team and greater good Moores the better option
 
I always liked mcburnie but I'd take Moore every time in fact I don't think mcburnie could even. Play this role, he was always totally effective when up front on his own in the past

Agree....I'd probably take Moore over McBurnie too, he's more solid and consistent, 7 out of 10 every match.

Where as McBurnie was totally unreliable and a mixed bag.
We've seen him put in 9 out of 10 performances in the PL, where top level defenders have struggled to handle him
but we've also seen him play poorly against weak Championship level opposition. At times he's looked a really poor player for us
and you also felt McBurnie would pick up bookings for dissent or sent off for having a brawl with an opposition player.

Still like McBurnie though and would have him back if the salary wasn't too much, apparently he was popular in training too.
Even in the PL think McBurnie offers something different and is a good option to bring on as a sub.
 

I can't help but feel that McBurnie would mesh really well with players like Rak-Sakyi and O'Hare around him though. Much better than Moore.

I mean, he looked really good with Ndiaye.
