Looks like he'd be a fairly handy Rugby League winger. Those shoulders would put you on your arse if they charged at you.

He has a similar build to Shaqiri, who also seems a little too heavy, and not quite as nimble as you'd want a winger to be, which is arguably what has held him back from his reaching potential. They're both in great shape obviously, but they'd be better if they were a little leaner.

I've always thought the "needs to bulk up" was BS anyway. Players are punished more often than not for out-muscling their opponent these days. Agility is a much more valuable asset.

Yeah he looks too much like a bodybuilder. Too front-top heavy.

Zlatan's a 95kg monster (and so was drogba) but his pecs, shoulders and arms seem fairly lean.
 
just cos you can score bags loads of goals in the dutch league does not mean you are going to succeed in the premiere league. nor should you be expected too the difference in quality is huge!

That argument does not hold considering the number of players that were successful in the dutch and and experience greater sucess in other top leagues like Spain, England and Italy.
 
I'm taking a punt on him as my fantasy captain today. I need something special after neglecting it for the last couple of months and falling behind. Come on Memphis and surprise us all!
 
He's currently very slow in everything he does, needs to be much more explosive in his turns and dribbles.
 
Today is very important for him to have a good performance (assuming he starts). If he is poor again and ends up being hauled off for a half-fit Wilson, I wonder how long he'll have to wait for another start.
 
Hope he scores. Has all of the ability, just needs to adjust his game and mature.
 
He's got a great chance today. We really need a big performance.

Really hope he turns it on today. If we can get him, Martial and Januzaj all to achieve their potential we're in for an absolute treat for years to come.
 
Really good finish.

Always said people are far too harsh on him. Glad he's scored.
 
delighted for him, I hope today will be the making of him. Long way to go yet though...
 
His finishing has been really disappointing so far considering it's supposed to be the strongest aspect of his game, but that was a brilliant finish.

He's mostly disappointed me so far but every now and again shows things like that that makes he think he does have the talent to make it here.
 
Good game so far, happy for the guy.
 
Well done. Looked positive, always looking to try and go forward. Nice finish too.
