Dunno why but I’ve got a feeling this is gonna be an expensive flop. I wanna be excited but it’s the fee and his age doing that.

Fact is he’s a young player, signed for 500k, putting in decent performances for a German mid table team. If we were paying £1m for him nobody would get giddy.

Suspect that has a lot to do with who’s in charge

Striker in a 4-2-3-1 with Rodrigo behind him, Gnonto and Aaronson wide of him possibly.
Yeah makes sense. Rodrigo can't be worse than Aaronson has been at CAM recently and Aaronson looked decent in a wider role at start of the season. And Obvs with this we get to play our sexy new striker and keep Rodrigo's goal threat.

Be interesting when everyone is fit. Sini has to come in somewhere imo. Summerville has been a real threat too. Would be ideal if Sini can return and play behind Rutter, but not sure if he's played there much before. Summerville and Gnonto wide.

Bench would look pretty good anorl. Harrison, Aaronson, Rodrigo, Bamford, Ounahi (potentially) etc.
I can't see Rutter being a starter every game.
He's scored 2 in 15 so far this season.
It's going to need bedding in.
I've said before I don't think he's a hit the ground running type. Bags of potential but there are ways to go with him.

I do think when he does play though, that's how we do it with him as the CF with Rodrigo behind him.

That's because we have Marsch in charge and it's exactly what I can see him doing.

I'm not either.
He's not going to save us from the drop.
He's one for the future for me.
Lot of money too.
That's what was said about Gnonto, one for the future. I moaned like fuck when we signed him and now he's carrying the team :lol:.. probs take a bit of time to bed in but doubt we'd spend £28m on a player and not expect him to make a substantial contribution to our season with us being so close to bottom 3.
Just hope he's not like JKA.

Fair comment, though would you prefer him up top or benched? He is shite deeper but he's only frigger scoring and Aaronson doesn't do much there. Just thinking of fitting Rutter in like, though he'll probably have to work his way into team for a little while anyway.
You don’t commit to £40m and play Rutter behind Rod. Rutter good with his back to goal which will bring Rod further forward running off him from his hold up play. Rod must’ve held ball up twice. Think Rutter and Rod will be a great partnership.
