The best I saw of Gakpo was against United at Anfield; possibly at the time of his first season with us. His strength is that of a utility striker on the left-hand side being able to cut in.
He was never in my eyes anything beyond. He obviously made an impression 4 years ago in the other World Cup.
I don’t think we’re helping ourselves slating him. Instead, what we should be focusing on is setting our sights on actual Wide men who will dribble, go to the By-line, find the keeper’s near post, cut the ball back, or put a cross in on a six pence.
