That’s all well and good, but if you’re not getting near the ball it counts for a big fat zero.
Add to that, he’s a reactor, see ball get ball. Stuffs any structure a team works to (if we have one)
Zero football nous, reactive, not constructive. Often competes against the tall forwards instead of being front & centre. Flies for a near speccie, turns side on to chest mark and drops it. Then isn’t in a position to hold the ball in. Momentum killer.
Among the most poor disposal exponents I’ve ever seen. Too often mis kicks, handballs behind, or at the feet of teammates. poor/inconsistent/ low confidence set shot. And so on. Momentum killer
Oh but he brings chaos so we love him. yep, can’t play to a structure. Run george run. He brings pressure, except he doesn’t, averages 2.1 tackles, 0.6 1%ers a game. Poor return for a pressure forward.
He runs fast and often (most times where the ball ain’t) so does a dog chasing cars with the same result. Momentum killer.
Mind you he does pull out the above average game where he kicks goals out of his arse, but they’re the outlier. A bit like Chol, who gets critiqued unmercifully for it. But George has endeavour, I’ll certainly give him that.
