And it's not like he will have exceptional service at Milan, this could go either way.

But the main question is, if we get him..are we going to play with two strikers? It's not like he is a much more mature player than Crutone, so the later can learn from him.

playing good for 4 months (or maybe even 2) makes you good enough for Milan now

No striker will succeed here with our current midfield + wingers.

He's probably not that bad, but he's expected to outperform Cutrone, score even more frequently than him while considerably improving our play. That ain't gonna happen. He'll be jeered off the pitch by the San Siro crowd as soon as soon as he has two not-good performances in a row. RnB will be in flames because "we wasted 40m on the Polish Kalinic?!?!?!". "Supporters" will do everything they can to tear up his confidence. The situation will become unbearable for everyone. Leo(if he's even here at that point) will be desperate to get rid of him. Loan with buyout option.

i hope he is patient and likes to stay in the box and can score some headers. right now that is the only way our strikers can get some service. team should stop ignoring strikers run. just launch the ball towards them any way possible. after that it will be up to them to fight it out.

That’s more of an end game panic tactic

One thing I agree with Gazidis is that Piatek and Cutrone are very similar players.One advantage of Piatek is his conversion ratio, shoot-goals, which is impressive,but that advantage is mainly due to more experience than Cutrone.
Polish fans are not comparing Piatek with Milik or Lewa,but Juskowiak former player,who had solid career.

right now, we are too relaxed. we take forever to make a simple pass. we need urgency in attack and try to keep their defense and goalkeeper busy. its like nobody wants to pass the ball to our strikers. possession football doesn't suit us at all. with more end to end game, kessie, samu, hakan, calabria/conti can contribute a lot more. we'll still need more pace, specially when defending. stamina, i'm not that worried about it. even though we would get tired, so will our opponents. last season's lazio game comes to mind. maybe ladri(becasue of their debth) and napoli could keep up.

Why is the bottom gun being held by its barrel? Is he shooting his foot?

You won't fault Piatek for his effort and sharpness. He moves all over the pitch and often quite cleverly, ghosting in to the right spots. And if he gets the ball where he wants, he rarely misses. He's a poacher in the sense he's as good as any poacher inside the box. But he's not a poacher in the sense he roams far more than usual poachers do. Which suits our style of play.

However, doing the same for Milan will be a different ball game. Naturally, defences will be more alert and more in numbers against us than against Genoa, and we'll need to see how he copes.

I'd definitely play two wing forwards and Paqueta along with him to give him adequate space. ie Calhanoglu, Suso, Paqueta and Piatek should be the 4 guys attacking the box.

it's kinda lame, actually

first, we got a striker too concerned with his Instagram, now one too concerned with having a custom celebration in Fifa... not good

It's super lame, but all iconic celebrations are really super lame. Thumb-sucking, baby cradling, Luca Toni's etc etc.
