All credit to Mateta for taking his chance so well.
Credit to Glasner too for getting the players further up the field to create chances.
We have scored first in nearly all of Glansner's games.
Even Sorloth or Jermaine Easter would score in the Glasner set up (the excitement must be getting to me!)

Your yeats behind the news. Sorloth is the fourth highest league scorer in Spain at the moment with 15 and 18 in total with 6 games to go. He has surpassed last years top 10 finish and total of 17 first class goals.

Jermaine Easter, that’s another story. Worked hard but couldn’t score. Who does that remind you of?

But my fundamental belief about prem strikers is that so many fail because they mostly need two things. Time to adapt and a run in the team. And time is the one luxury no PL team can afford.

And it is a catch 22 that few clubs can offer that.

Solanke is a good example of a player who similarly has gone from flop to star thanks to being given time (albeit he perhaps benefited from Bournemouth getting relegated). The problem with the point you make though is that some strikers never fulfil on their potential even with time, so it is a difficult stick or twist scenario.
