Timber's the best FB since Lauren but even he's still learning how to combine with those two as well as BW. And he's been injured.
Yet his goals, the interplay before the injury {and Ganpati willing coming back straight away} and what he adds to the team has been far more than Sesko, Isak or Etitike. Without him, we'd have been playing with MnM all season, and he might have got crocked. I do like what MnM does up top, I think a false 9 who can score, create and win aerial duels is something that MA likes. But imagine we hadn't signed a striker and everyone was injured.
We'll soon have 4 different options up top, one of whom can also play wide, one as a ten and one as a box-to-box MF.
The problem is the defensive injuries, not Vik.
