The pearl you are looking for is that so far Sorloth has not had sufficient game time or starts for an informed opinion to be put forward.

If anyone can predict whether someone will make it in the PL after 13 appearances, mostly cameos as sub, they are invaluable.

Chelsea decided Salah was not up to it after 13 appearances,

I am NOT suggesting Sorloth is ever to going to be as excellent as Salah but it demonstrates the point

No It demonstrates you've clearly got no grasp on reality Comparing Salah to Sorloth is actually laughable.

The last three seasons before Salah joined Liverpool he was on loan at Fiorentina and Roma in Serie A, renowned for its tough defences, Roma eventually signed him for 15 million after scoring 15 and 16 goals in respective seasons.

He also has banged in 39 Goals in 60 odd international appearances for Egypt.

Sorloth on the other hand, his last two clubs were FC Groningen playing 38 times and scoring 5, yes it was in the Eredivise but still a poor return, most notably he was moved on to some tin pot team in Denmark (FC Midtjylland ) where having clearly gone to a league of a much lesser standard, he doubled his prolific record from 5 to 10 goals in 19 goals, Impressive if it wasn't for the fact the league is utterly rubbish.

What that tells me is, he may be a decent league one striker or Championship at a push, but to compare him to Mo Salah is ludicrous, as is insinuating he is a better player than Benteke.

Pearls of wisdom my arse.

He did not compare Salah to Sorloth as anyone not looking for a fight would have realised.

I have already mentioned in another thread that you seem to have a very aggressive posting style and wondered whether you may find life more to your liking at the other Palace forum where they often encourage such things

I'm not going to say he has been brilliant, but he has played an hour and a half of PL football this season in total, with his longest appearance being 26 minutes against Arsenal. Last season he started four games, but they were against Man Utd, Chelsea, Spurs and Everton away. A 35 page thread about someone who has barely broken his boots in seems madness to me. Against Spurs he did well in his cameo, I thought, aside from failing to beat the keeper. The issue is, he didn't have time to make amends. Even the best strikers miss chances, but they are playing regularly enough to a) finish other chances, and b) have match sharpness from playing regularly.


Personally I think we need to start him at least for a few games as he seems more suited to the role than Ayew who looks like he is playing out of position. If you watch videos of him in training he can hit a powerful shot and in theory he should be big and strong enough to hold the ball up, I just think he needs PL experience as a lot is being asked of him to play cameo roles having previously only played in leagues of a lower quality.

Wow, veiled threats again because I speak my mind, and more often than not disagree with you.....But anyway back to t he point in question and the accusation I'm looking for a fight (FFS it's a message board).

Here is his statement.

Chelsea decided Salah was not up to it after 13 appearances,

I am NOT suggesting Sorloth is ever to going to be as excellent as Salah but it demonstrates the point


He is clearly referencing Salah, because you know, he says Salah. He is also clearly referencing he (sorloth) should get more game time because he may come good like Salah did. That is a clear and direct comparison.

One that I debunked with facts not fiction, in that Salah was way way ahead of Sorloth even going back three years.

Furthermore if you read back you will see that it was your chum who got shirty first, calling comments on the thread swamp s***, but you've turned a blind eye to that I assume ? I was merely answering in the tone that was set by your buddy.

And whilst you think you may have the power of God because your a moderator I can assure you I will not change from shooting from the hip, saying as I see it, and typing in the manor I always have, far to much snow flakery around here at present, and it would seem mainly when one disagree's with a moderator. Ohh and by the way don't be fooled by the new moniker, I've been a member of this site in way or another for 13 years, and have enjoyed every minute So please enough of the threats mate, it's a bit playground and teacher if you ask me.

I have been a member of this site long before you mate, and I have broken no rules so please ease up with the threats they're not impressing anyone, least of all me.

And I will ask again, seeing as it clearly just slipped your mind, How come your giving me grief, but the person who called everyone else's opinion swamp s*** gets left alone ? Could it be that you agree with him so that's OK ?

Whats good for the goose is good for the gander.

This is getting quite tiresome. Either you are being deliberately obtuse or else you are not very bright and I can't decide which is true.

There is a huge difference between chucking out a general comment like "Thank you for injecting some common sense into the swamp of s***e being posted" and the continual aggressive and sarcastic comments that you make against named individuals

Getting back to the subject matter ......
what have we to lose in starting Sorloth to give him the chance to prove how good/not good he is?

People are condemning him out of hand before he has been given a start in a match.

Remember in recent times the likes of Benteke, Murray and Gayle all struggled to fit to our system and I guess more illustrious finishers might also struggle with the erratic 'service' provided by our so called midfielders, or, indeed our 'system' which I find difficult to understand. I suppose the manager does but I have doubts .....

Not a fan of Sorloth but you have a point. I never expect to get anything at Old Trafford so why not give him a try. I would certainly drop Ayew as I am not impressed with his work rate and overall team play. It maybe that we need to lump balls up to a big lump if we are to get anything at Man United.

Brilliant insults from a moderator, you actually couldn't make it up. Also could you please explain to me in the rules where It states I can't be sarcastic, I haven't been overly aggressive either.
