He is now, he wasn't before mate. From scrawny lad to impressive athlete, his potential now is huge. He's winning me over.Calvert-Lewin is one of the best athletes in the whole league though. He's got a margin for error that McBurnie will never have unfortunately
My Swans mate says McBurnie is a good player and will do well for us
Give Burke a chance! He has played only a few games for us so far! Robinson played 17 games for us and scored only once!I was talking about Burke.
If Robinson outscores McBurnie...that doesn’t bear thinking about.
Totally agree with you Revolution Said, id like to see him playing behind the front two hes got speed, chases down balls and put defenders under pressure.Give Burke a chance! He has played only a few games for us so far! Robinson played 17 games for us and scored only once!
Fixed for you!Totally agree with you Silent. Said, id like to see him playing behind the front two hes got speed, chases down balls and put defenders under pressure.
Didn't Usworth always say he was an amazing athlete? Could jump higher than anyone his age group etcHe is now, he wasn't before mate. From scrawny lad to impressive athlete, his potential now is huge. He's winning me over.
From scrawny to athlete, there's a point...crack on Oli!
I sincerely hope they're right mate. I really do, I think we need to play him as a Sharp-eque prime goalhanger though, than as a dropping deep, back to goal forward as has been said elsewhere on this thread. He isn't the build of a target man and likely will never be.

This is a defence stat not a forward stat. Against Liverpool fair play he won some knock ons- but note Virgil wasn't there- their backline was not powerful.
- His aerial duel success rate is the highest in the league.
Against the proper centre backs he looks weak. He generally looks weak and pathetic he ambles about with an extremely lazy gait.
If he scores loads of goals we will all gladly eat humble pie and change our tunes, probably kiss his feet and tell him the caterpillar on his lip lokes lovely, but from what I can see that pie will be in the fridge a long time.
He is not as good as Gary Madine sadly.
Well that's kinda the idea with footballing stats, just take them with a pinch of salt.Is that stat even true? I know he's won the most headers in the league, but he might have lost 10,000 headers for all we know. That wouldn't be a good success rate.
I took it to mean in training he doesn't sprint. But then again, I'm also a McBurnie fan. I think the ongoing debate over him highlights just how simplistically some people can view football.I'm a McBurnie fan, and local Oli sticker-upper, but did anyone notice the video posted on Instagram yesterday where he boasts that he never sprints.
It was probably in jest, but as he said it (to Ampadu when they were discussing who was faster) I thought what an odd thing to say.
An underpeforming striker, in a slow starting team, explains to his team mates (and so the camera can hear) that he only puts maximum effort into running a couple of times a season.
You don't make it easy for me to fight your corner at times mate.
Could you start a Billy Sharp apologists thread so we can all post on there?Apologists central.
All aboard .

4 Goals and 2 assists in 29 appearances, 1,183 minutes. So he scores a non-penalty goal every 394 minutes. A goal every 13 appearances.
Or, you could stop being a WUM? Just a thought?

You are asking for the impossibleOr, you could stop being a WUM? Just a thought?
Your opinion is duly noted.Excellent. You just continue shouting into the void on here
I'd say it was embarrassing but that would indicate you give a shit what anybody thinks
I wonder who is the slowest of the lot of em ?Think it was in reference to timed sprints in training not on pitch work as ampadu was winding him up about his time being better
It’ll be McBurnie as in every training video he’s jogging everywhere but he’s no slouch on the pitch is fit enough to complete 90 mins and wilder is clearly happy with his effort so that’s good enough for meI wonder who is the slowest of the lot of em ?
Mind boggles .

Must be saving it for match days eh. ?It’ll be McBurnie as in every training video he’s jogging everywhere but he’s no slouch on the pitch is fit enough to complete 90 mins and wilder is clearly happy with his effort so that’s good enough for me
He did win a lot of headers at Anfield but he was up against a make shift center back .Why can he not win headers in the oppositions area from corners?The few times he wins these headers they are usually well of target or put nice and gently in to the goalies arms.This is a defence stat not a forward stat. Against Liverpool fair play he won some knock ons- but note Virgil wasn't there- their backline was not powerful.
