Let& #39;s talk Folarin Balogun!

There& #39;s lots of excitement given the recent renewal news (for good reason I might add) but below is a quick analysis of what Flo brings to the first team.

Is the hype warranted? In short yes he provides a complete 9 profile. https://twitter.com/prime_brodie/status/1276882365399339008">https://twitter.com/prime_bro...

A complete 9 who lives off the shoulder of the last defender, Flo is an instinctive striker & clinical finisher with either foot, consistently finding the bottom corners with power & precision.

He has quick feet, blistering pace & predatory movement to run in behind defenses.

What& #39;s his superpower?

It would be weird not to mention his composure in front of goal, but what makes me excited is his ability to pin opposing CB& #39;s with ease.

He can receive under pressure & roll contact before bursting on goal-vital projecting adaptability to men& #39;s football.

What can he work on?

All of this sounds very exciting, yet he can at times let the game pass him by tho his qualities make him a constant threat.

He does need to work on his ability to block passing lanes from the front & learn pressing triggers with greater regularity.

Conclusion

Flo is a rich man& #39;s Timo Werner posing far greater technical security and composure under contact from opposition CB& #39;s.

IMO his ceiling is easily able to lead the line for a Top 6 club in the EPL looking to challenge-high praise but one he will display in due course!
