Michy Batshuayi

Marseilles-Michy-Batshuay-008.jpg


Marseille striker. Scored 4 goals in his last 3 games after getting limited playing time earlier on in the season because of Gignac.

Watched him in action tonight and I can't say I'm not impressed. He has excellent technique, very good dribbler, plays with flair, physically imposing, fast and looks like a very good finisher . We should keep an eye on him, unlike Vietto, Icardi, Dybala etc he actually looks like a proper #9 in the Benzema, Ibrahimovic, Eto'o, Drogba etc mould. Could be an option for 2016.

I watched the game last night and he reminded me a lot of Suarez, just without the passing ability and football IQ.

Well, Suarez is 28 and been in top slight for a while. Michy is 21 in his first season with a top side. He has tons of room for growth, but I'm impressed with what I've seen the last few weeks.

Should rather keep an eye on his brother, Leya Iseka, who's at Anderlecht.
He scored the winner a couple of weeks ago when we faced them in the U19 Youth League game at Anderlecht.

France is producing more than all three(Pogba, Griezmann, Lacazette, Varane, Zouma, etc) but yes, Belgium looks to have developed quite the generation.

Picks up his 7th goal of the season to put OM up 1-0 against Lens.

Edit: Picked up a brace in extra time. 8 on the season through 680 minutes or so.

I think he's the best pure goalscorer Belgium has, is currently the leading goalscorer in Ligue 1 playing for a shitty team and that idiot Wilmots doesn't select him because according to him Batshuayi is 'out of form'
