Precisely. Clearly not a number 9 and only playing there in the absence of a match fit number 9
Couldn't disagree with you anymore about Cunha being a Dave Edwards type of playerI'm starting to dislike him. Sarabia took on a shot and curled it beyond the far post, a decent effort imo, and Cunha seemed to complain about not receiving a pass when he wasn't really open and wasn't even playing well. There was a match last season where Costa played the ball in front of Cunha and ran on into the box. Lacking a left foot, Cunha had to run past the ball to hit it with his right and hit a poor shot. Costa suggested he should have been passed to and Cunha pointed to his eyes, seeming to suggest that he hadn't seen Costa. It was difficult to believe this given that Costa had just passed to him, and then made a normal run. The truth as far as I could tell was that Cunha hadn't tried to return the pass because to do so he would have had to use his left foot, and he doesn't have one. Sometimes it's like watching a hockey player.
It makes matters worse that when Cunha has somebody up with him, Cunha is almost invariably to the left of the other player and therefore can hardly ever pass to them in the box. His whole game seems to be based on the inverted-forward shot curled past the keeper into the far post. He had a decent effort just after he scored which was IIRC of that type. I think PL defenders have him sussed though and won't let him cut back onto his right very often. Maybe I'm wrong.
He took the penalty very well, and I'll warm to him rapidly if he chalks a few more goals up, but at the moment I see him as a Dave Edwards type of player: he'll chip in with a few goals, but the fluency of the team will be poor while he's there and this will reduce our over all goals scored. I think we could use Doc as a forward and we would be better off than with Cunha there. Fabs worked very well with Doc, and understood the intelligent run he made.
Just my opinion.
Class act ? More of a show pony
100% this!! I’d trust Sarabia with Fabio & Neto over CunhaI'm starting to dislike him.

Needs to be helped by others not a lone striker
That’s you opinion I’m sticking to mine
Best players in the world miss sitters
Er no. I just don’t see a 40 million player. I didn’t last season when he signed either. I don’t jump on any bandwagon lol. It’s my opinion.
Nunes is our best player, based on what?! Can’t possibly be his performances in a Wolves shirt. The guy does nothing all game then runs past a couple of players and loads of people declare him the best player in the world.
Yes 100% the money wasted on average players beggars belief.
Potentially, maybe. He ain’t shown that in a Wolves shirt though.
There's no such thing as the 'final' piece, there's always another one.
Silva aint a striker though, so we have 2 no 10,s, we really need sasa to be fit and then play cunha/ silva off him.
