these bird puns are too much to swallow 

must have spilt his bovril. 

agreed. he's one of the best finishers at the club but now we have seen him week in week out, he feels like a luxury player. a useful bloke to bring off the bench when you're chasing a goal but doesn't put the work in that howe demands to justify starting ahead of gordon.    he has the technical ability to usurp murphy at RW. but he needs to embrace the eddie howe way and he hasn't so far shown that he will do the off the ball work required. his main threat also seems to be cutting in from the left and shooting on his right. he has looked toothless when he has played on the right and he doesn't graft as hard as murphy so it's hard to make the case for him starting on either flank.    he'll also be on a big wage. i can see him being sold in the summer if he doesn't force his way into the team before then.
