His second goal in two games, and a game winner at that. Nice to see Jemal step up and make the most of his opportunity.
I wouldn't say i was "doubter"...more of a "wait-and-see how he does at Wolverhampton" but let me say it's nice that he shut me the fu<k up. it'd be really nice if he ended up being the leading goalscorer in the English Championship this season and Wolverhampton got promoted too.
Who are these doubters you keep referring to? Most of us have only seen him in a brief appearance or two. He seemed really small and fast at the time, but are there lots of doubters here? Doubt many of us know enough to have an opinion yet.
No I'm just saying he's doing everything right right now. And people were saying he shouldnt be called up in the other thread. We have no decent forwards right now. EJ is crap in MLS right now, Ching is injured, Chris Rolfe cant score, we're just in a horrible state of Forwards right now. Then again, JJ could be crap for the rest of the season, but Im hoping he's only getting started ona long goalscoring run here.
JJ gets alot of crap on these boards, but I honestly couldn't care less about his personal life as long as he scores goals on the field. If he can become a decent prem-quality 15-20 goals a season guy that would be unbelievable, it probably wont happen, but we can hope so. Hopefully he at least becomes good enough to contribute in the squad.
5 strikers (and one midfielder, Frank Lampard) scored more than 15 goals in the prem last season. Scoring 8-10 goals is decent. 15-20 is superstar (And Darren Bent) quality.
