I’m liking what I see. Glad he’s registered an assist, and I expect he’ll continue grow his chemistry with the team.

Happy for him to be involved in goals but his approach is worrying me. I don't see enough grinta or that determination to win balls. He seems quite cold. He surely has a great vision, but I want him to dominate physical aspect of game.

He will score in derby, with a slip from Theo

I found something more I like about him, he is heavily involved in plays that can lead to goals (e.g. the flick to Dimarco that lead to the assist); besides the two goals, which is something Correa failed heavily on.

That's his playing style. If you look Mbappe WC final goal, he is involved with some nice movement. His playing style as striker not convinced as much as Winger, so his get own style as runner to give assist.

Yeah I don’t really see how he’s going to score more than 15 goals in all comps. His playing style just isn’t conducive to that. However his link up play so far has been elite. I’m fine with the way he play’s personally as I still see it as a net positive for our side. I just hope the fans don’t get on him if he has a long stretch without scoring.

He has never had a great goal scoring record in his career, so why some folks expect him to be that is beyond me

Inzaghi expect the same also, this is why he is starting him and will keep starting him until the end of the season almost all games
He expect 10 - 15goals from him

He thinks hes Dzeko

Btw i like him as a player so calm, composed considering he is young and came to seria a to play first season... i think he will get great until the end of the season , i have big hopes for this guy

Dont expect him to be Lukaku, totally diffferent type of players.

Currently a more viable option than BBQ boy.

Can't really see Thuram's contribution getting any worse .. he will either plateau or blow up.

10 goals across all competitions isn't unreasonable.

The more crucial factor will be the timing of goals/assists rather than the volume. If he scores two hattricks when we're already 2-0, it won't mean anything. IIRC, Perisic didn't score a great many goals, but had a knack for scoring decisive goals.

10 goals total from thuram will be fucking shit. he needs to score at least 15 this season imho.

Im not talking about him and his quality, but rather, what we need to be useful alongside Martinez.

both goals yesterday are attacks he started. He gets into good positions as well but people aren't passing him the ball. As long as we win I am happy. If he frees our wingbacks to attack than more power to him.

I mean I reserve judgement until the Fiorentina and Milan games coming up.

I don’t think 15 goals is reasonable unless Martinez gets amputated. Thuram will probably play somewhere between 20-70mins when available, sharing his time with Arnautovic & Sanchez.

If you expect that from Thuram you would be soon disappointed. He is the opposite of Icardi i.e. scoring not too much but involving in the build-up play, dragging opponents to create space for others, smooth touches to draw fouls, through balls and such.

That would be good enough for me. Him and Lautaro complement each other.
