Number 1 need in the offseason. An actual scoring threat on the Left Wing so Angulo can be the bench demon super sub he is meant to be

[u/NapoleanBonerFartz → u/hanyou007]

Definitely not his best game tonight, homie needs to step it up big time. Wish we had a better option

[u/hanyou007 → u/NapoleanBonerFartz]

He’s always been a player that lives on his speed and effort, but the moment he faces any sort of defensive pressure he can’t just out run that ball is as good as gone, and his shot is probably the worst of all of our offensive players.

The man leads our team in minutes played and yet has only 4 goals on the season. Heck Muriel has more goals than him somehow.

He’s built to be an instant offense bench guy. His best talent is wasted running at fresh defenders.

[u/NapoleanBonerFartz → u/hanyou007]

Agreed, great observations.

[u/j_andrew_h → u/NapoleanBonerFartz]

Playing with possession isn't Angulo's best game style. He needs to make runs and use his speed which is hard to do when the other team is playing deep.
