I'd still be looking to offload him in the summer if we didn't take too massive a hit financially in the deal.

I wouldn't be actively looking to move him on but I wouldn't turn down a decent bid for him. He may well excel in the championship, but that's a lot of money to risk if he doesn't. |

Set the tone for his season (and ours), sadly. |

Looked like a striker who was desperate to score, he went the shortest route to goal when he probably should have gone back across the keeper. Confidence is a powerful feeling.

I still think there is a very good player in Mounié if we find a system that suits him. He won far more aerial duels than Wolves’ giant centre backs yesterday. A bit of confidence and he could have had a hat trick.
You can see by the look on his face he’s struggling. Low on confidence and far from relaxed, it’s no wonder his natural game is subdued and he is snatching at everything.
He’s spent most of his Town career completely isolated and isn’t a natural lone striker. Let’s judge him again after a few games of having a partner up top with him.

Finally watched the match and I do think that Mounie had a good game. He did miss the header but it wasn’t as easy as I first thought, there was no pace on the ball but he should have done better and gone across the keeper. He did however create a couple of chances and scored the winner what more do you want. He will always beat a defender in the air. He’s never been dominated in that area of his game. He will get better. Championship could be his level and the price we paid for is championship money in this inflated world of football

Grant took a lot of the plaudits last night and rightly so but its the first time Mounie's had a strike partner to work with and there were signs that it could prove fruitful in the future. Mounie's aerial threat means that he'll always be closely marked but this in turn should allow more space for Grant to operate in. |

I wonder if last night wasn’t too little, too late for Mounie. Got a strong feeling he won’t fancy life in the Championship (not cos he can’t handle it, more he thinks it’s beneath him) & will be off back to France or somewhere else on the Continent.

Kinda torn with Mounie .... would like him to stay on for the championship to see how he’d get on. Hopefully he’d smash it.
However, if he’s still shit, get rid in January and swap for a couple of fray bentos pies.
On the the other hand I’m thinking ....gets shot of him now coz he thinks he’s better than he is. Get 5 mill in the bank and get a young, hungry, Huddersfield type striker like Grant.
As Mrs May says .... Simples!!

He's likely to get more money with us in the Championship than with any club he'll get elsewhere in Europe. |

The fact he and others in the squad haven't had the best of seasons, is no reason to attack his character. |

Going off at a tangent, the thread title "is he a record holder?" I actually wondered that about our own Steve Kindon having spent an enjoys evening listening to him pre match at Canalside.
He played for Town, Wolves and Burnley all three clubs have been FA Cup winners and League (PL / 1st Div) Champions and played in Div. 4.
Surely no other player has the same connection ? (PS I'm aware they didn't achieve it while he was actually playing)

No doubt he’s probably a very nice young man ....
But probably thinks he’s better than what he is ... that’s why he’ll be off .... and fail.
Just my opinion girls.

without moving too much into oti territory , i always think of it as a percentage game .
have ten shots = a couple of goals ( i'm thinking overall , not us obviously )
mounie had three attempts , and got one goal .
an acceptable return , just wish it happened more often

Championship could be his level and the price we paid for is championship money in this inflated world of football He may not suit our primary style, but for me he gets so much more crap than he deserves on here. As long as he won't be like a spare part because of the type of forwards Siewert prefers, I'd be more than happy to see him here next year. |

Didn't Stoke just pay £8m for 29 year old Vokes who's scored fewer goals than Mounie in the same time? |

And on top of that, knowing what some of those he was sat amongst thought of him. A fan also asked him on social media if he'd stay if we were relegated.. He didn't have to reply and most wouldn't have, but he did and said "Town forever". Hope he does, he'd be a beast on form on the Championship. |

He's got support now and a manager who's style of play is all about attack and getting the ball in the box, here's hoping we see a lot more of smiling Steve instead of scowling Steve for the foreseeable future 😁

But if he'd gone back across the keeper Coady was on the line I saw that, but he was running at close to top pace and would have found it hard to stop anything. |
