looking at jozy play i think his problem might be that if anything he hits the ball a bit too well.

Hope he doesn't score just for the new American Sunderland fans' posts on whatever that forum is called. It's great fun.

That you do. Consider yourself lucky. We American fans are going to put Sunderland on the map or else it will be going to back just 4 of you in an empty stadium.

Jay Bothroyd is capped for England.

Bothroyd's meagre 6 goal haul in 62 Prem appearances is still more than twice as good as Jozy's 2 in 43.

I genuinely can't think of another striker with a worse Prem record. Even previous Eredivisie failure examples Alves and Kezman managed 10/42 and 4/25.

I hate the fact that Sunderland scored 4 today without him for most of the game and it's basically disproved the whole "well if he played for a team that could score goals, he'd he banding them in" argument. But, because he won a penalty by literally falling over the ball then diving into a player, the Jozy fan boys will put it down as an assist and say he helped the team out.

Has Jozy ever assisted a goal without either knocking the ball away with a lovely first touch or falling over it and winning the team a penalty?

He's literally the biggest joke player in the world

Why can't you just be happy for the lad, he contributed today in his own way.

Not sure that's true.

Boyd was the proto-Jozy, he had posters of the same nationality as him insisting that he was a good striker even though it was readily apparent that he wasn't, just like Josmer.

The difference being that Boyd scored his goals in an even worse league and then couldn't even hack it in the Championship.

Heskey would have to play a further 2124 Prem games without scoring to have a record as bad as Jozy. Thats 56 seasons.

i'm trying to think of players worse than jozy in the prem. even jovanovic could score against football league opposition. balaban maybe, but he put more effort in

Balaban played 8 times in the Prem and scored none, in the tradition of this thread that either means he scored once every zero matches or once every infinity matches, its impossible to know for sure.

Here's a soccer stat for you I just calculated: If Jozy indeed weighs 174 pounds then Sunderland could have bought his weight in gold over 4 times for the transfer fee they paid him.

Tough choice, should they have gone with the large, inert and unreactive lump, or should they have bought the gold?

Danny Graham's appalling tbf, also a reminder that Torres cost 50 million pounds

For Graham's Prem record to be worse than Jozy's he'd have to not score for another 352 games, thats 9 seasons.

I genuinely think Jozy has the worst Prem goalscoring record of any striker who has played a decent number of games.

john steed: 13 premier league goals over three seasons
Daryl Murphy: 4 in three seasons but didnt he play as a winger?
David Healy: 4 in three seasons


all better than jozy and i bet none of them came close to costing eight million pounds

All three have better Prem goals per game than Jozy. Murphy comes closest with a goal every 18 games compared to Jozy's goal every 26.5, so if Jozy scores in his next game we can safely say that he's as good as Daryl Murphy.

The difference between Jozy and RVW is that Ricky at least is putting the effort in, similarly Elmander today who's been fairly shite all season completely outshone Jozy today and he's old and on loan so you'd forgive him for not really giving a poo poo.

He was lazy and disinterested in that U21 game as well. His lack of skill at the PL level has been totally unsurprising but his poo poo attitude has been the biggest surprise. I think he definitely goes somewhere he can be a big fish next year, challenges aren't for Jozy

This is a big part of why Sunderland fans hate him imo. A bit of effort goes a long way to getting the fans behind a limited player.

Although any support he gets still baffles me though since his only contribute seems to be kicking people really hard, not actually tackling well.

Kicking people really hard is the other way for a limited player to get the fans onside

Instead of lazily comparing him to Bony and Lukaku why don't they compare him to Ade Akinbiyi and Trevor Benjamin.

Akinbiyi in the Prem: 76 games 11 goals
Benjamin: 36 games 1 goal
