for what he has ability wise, and what he cost us he is decent enough.

this isnt his fault, but he cant be relied on as the main man up top.

But at the moment he's the best (Possibly only) option we have. He's performed well this season and generally been consistent, but you are right, he's not the answer to our striking needs.

One of his great assets is that he rarely gives the ball away cheaply - something many of his team mates do all too commonly.

So true and the third most fouled player in the PL (after Grealish and Zaha)

I had a look and apologies if I missed it but can't believe this man hasn't got his own thread. £2M I think it was and he has earned us 14 points with his goals this season.

Past that, his work rate is incredible and he seems to just want to accommodate the team as well and is happy playing up top or on the right/left.

Anyway, wanted to leave this here as I think Jordan deserves huge praise. This coming from myself, who last year, when he was on loan made the buffoon statement, "I have never disliked a CPFC player until Jordan"

How I have eaten my words so here are the new ones. Follow suit as you wish people!

Well said. I thought he was bobbins last season and he has most certainly turned my opinion round as well.

Interestingly he played really well against Newcastle and didn't get the goal he deserved, whereas against Brighton he wasn't great, but got his goal when he got the chance! Basically the inverse of the Newcastle game!

I think if JA had have left over the summer, we collectively would have shrugged our shoulders, muttered "oh well" and moved on.

He's had a n extraordinary season compared to last, probably our best player with the ball at his feet and a contender for "player of the season" for us.

Not just the fact he has scored 7 goals, but they have included 2 late winners v WHam, an equaliser v Arsenal, winner v BHA and gave us the lead at Old Trafford.

Also very versatile and incredible value at 2ish million.

Jordan Ayew is our best player this season (so different from last season). He started the season playing up front as Roy had no other options and I thought he did very well he scored important goals and his work rate was outstanding defenders hate being chased and harassed. As soon as CB is fit he is moved to the right goals become less frequent he is less effective the team becomes one dimensional and predictable with CB up front.
We have had two wins on the trot but Newcastle were awful and Brighton while a little better can not score unfortunately (or fortunately) we are not playing them again this season and possibly not next.

I'll repeat the "well said". I've just flicked through the comment back in July when we signed him. There needs to be a large quantity of big humble pies to bne eaten.
Having said that, we were hoping for something more in the striking department back then (and still are). The silver lining to our striking paucity is that Ayew has stood up and been counted. From being a squad player last year, he's got to be one of the first names on the team sheet and is currently keeping Andros on the bench.

For me he should be starting as our main striker

I tend to agree as it will allow us flexibility re playing Townsend or a fourth midfielder.
Anyway, if as has been reported earlier, Tosun m\ay be out for the season, Ayew may well play main striker if Tekkers regresses from his current just-about-passable-form (other than in front of goal, of course - that form can surely only get better).

Fair play fella.

Think we all got this one wrong.
