“He seems like he may be a goal scorer, and I sense someone who is going that way.

“He can still play wide right, and we’ll play him wide right in a lot of games. We’ll chop and change as needed.

“If he’s not scoring, we’ll shift him back since he can play both roles. “But I have a feeling he’s hungry to score more goals.”

“I haven’t set a target for him, but if he can reach 20 goals, it will be a fantastic record for a West Ham centre-forward.
