Would you like to revise that after yesterday, Steve

Nope....I think there will be better out there that offer more and probably from the start of the game, not just a sub.
I refuse to use this "finisher" crap that Tommy likes to use to not offend anyone.

But Steve, you are subtly changing your argument from Kwame is not effective from the bench (which I think he is) to he needs to be effective from the start.

I offer you the examples of David "Supersub" Fairclough at Liverpool and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at Manchester United to illustrate that there really are such players as "finishers".

He hasn't really been in the time he's been here on loan....Last season he had a purpose.
He's obviously not been great at Ebbsfleet.
You can't compare David Fairclough at Liverpool to us.
We can't afford to carry players.
We all have opinions which is great.
You think he's worth keeping I don't

Thanks, Steve. Yes, we all have opinions. But please look closely at my post. I didn't compare David Fairclough to us.

If I say Theo Widdrington is a professional footballer (which is true) and Jude Bellingham is a professional footballer(also true), I am clearly not making any comparison of their respective talents.

Ok....They're substitutes!
This starters and finishers stuff is akin to not having losers in kids sports and Tommy's way of not offending the little darlings.
