I think scoring a goal and an assist in 3 games, constantly challenging defenders and tracking all the way back to play well on defense make him a good player for us. Not great, not even very good, but good, and with a massive upside.
Let's put it another way. He has played better than Taylor and Mendoza at that position, yet I don't see people shitting all over them on a regular basis.
because mendoza is a much better player who comes on as a sub, best his men and puts in halfway decent crosses.
tony taylor is the same shit as khiry, but older. less promising. and slightly better on the ball.
khiry cant defend, misses all his goal scoring opportunities, except one that hat to bounce off him and the goalie 3 times.
his goal and assist came in the same game, which was a good game from him- his only good game. ever.
when he can finish a 1v1 with the keeper and not miss the whole net, i'll talk less shit about him. but for now, hes a dead weight on the field who makes poor decisions, cannot cross, cannot finish, and gets taken off the ball too easily.
he can track back all the way to red bull stadium for all i care, it doesn't take away from how poor he really has been. you can be a fanboy all you want, and that's good for you. but i call it how i see it. if you suck, there's no sugar coating it. until he starts showing improvement, he's a waste.
to say he scored a goal and an assist in 3 games is false. to say he scored and got an assist in one game is accurate.
he's 6'2 and hasn't won a header in the box yet. on top of all that.
