Eddie is a very good Premier League striker, there’s a reason he’s in the England team. Is he perfect and flawless? No he’s not. Can we upgrade on him? Yes we probably can.
However upgrading on him might be hard, especially within our budget, I know there’s been links to Toney but seeing how we had to do loan with obligation for Raya to be in compliance with FFP I don’t see how we can sign another centre forward who will do a better job than Eddie without somehow raising funds by selling players. Toney would be at least £60m probably more, I don’t think there are many cheaper options that are available and better than what we’re currently getting from Eddie.
Final thing I’ll say is Eddie does not deserve the level of vitriol that some of the fanbase level at him. It’s fine to be critical and want other players instead, but comments about how he doesn’t deserve to play or have #14 or that he’s useless and worthless is just wrong.
