So Lookman scored yet again for Leipzig today and notched up 2 assists. In 664 minutes of football since he's been in the Bundesliga he's scored 5 goals (1 every 133 minutes) and registered 4 assists (1 every 166 minutes) . Very good stats for one so young. Compare this to our current wingers; Walcott in 1124 mins for Everton has notched up 3 goals (1 every 375 mins) and 3 assists (same again) . Bolasie in 847 mins has scored 1 goal and registered 0 assists. Mirallas in 136 mins has 0 goals and 0 assists and finally Vlasic in 574 mins has 0 goals and 0 assists. Granted these are only league stats, even still, it proves as very worrying reading and highlights how weak we are on the wings, positions that badly need strengthening over the summer along with many others. After such a successful loan period for Lookman, it makes you wonder what Bolasie and co. could have possibly been doing in training to be chosen ahead of him.

To be fair the German top league is the equivalent to our championship.
So it's not the same.
Aubameyang score 40 goals a season in Germany, the Las can't score in England.

Aubameyang has 9 goals in 12 if what I have read is correct, I’d love a striker with that return.

{Ed0333's Note - Lookman?

In truth, I think that we may well have seen the last of Lookman. Hope not though.

Read the Osman posts above. and think of how Lookman would suit us now. I think he is probably ready. but like Glennk says. we may have seen the last of him. I sincerely hope not.

{Ed025's Note - i hope not too degsy, i believe he could be a cracker mate but he needs to be given playing time mate..

I agree with the above. Some players, especially youngsters, you just need to persist with to let them find some form and consistency. Look at Davies, in and out of the team all the time, confidence shot, looks like a shadow of the lad he was even last season.
