Wolves without Traore is a bottom 6 team. Yeah he could definitely get more goals but assists? I've seen several times not just today where Wolves players don't finish the chances he provides yet he gets blamed for having no end product. I will not let this black man take unnecessary, lazy slander :hubie:

For wingers in this era you got to score goals. Your wingers got to be hitting a bare minimum of 10 a season. Especially when your team is built to play on the counter. You can get assists for winning direct scored freekicks and pens. So the whole assists stats can be misleading. Especially if youre a set piece specialist. Who gets to hide behind assist stats because you don't do it in open play.

Adama's creativity is committing defenders. Direct running at defenders and creating space for everyone else. But at a minimum for a winger you got to be beating a man or 2 that's half the job the other half is putting a good ball in. If the cross/passes are over/under hit or go into the crowd then your end product will be questioned which is the case with Adama. If his end product was good/consistent enough he would of moved on by now. If he scored goals could easily be sold for 70-80m.

Zaha and Adama are almost the same player only real differences is while Zaha takes the long way around Adama takes the shortest route possible. And Zaha while a inconsistent scorer he scores important goals when Palace need them Adama doesn't do that.
