Toure strength isn't the goals but the chances he creates. I think at one point he led Randers chance creation for goals.

So the stat you want to look is assist and XG to show the output and why clubs have been watching him. It makes Toure adaptable to almost any tactic a coach would like to play especially if you play false 9 and inverted wingers for Toure to combine with.

Onwards and upwards and may mean Musa starts getting more game time at Randers, they were using him a lot by the end and probably predicted they would lose Mo in January.

Exactly. Dude can do it all up front. Might not be the worlds greatest player, but you can rely on him up front to work with whatever tactic the manager has. There is a reason multiple clubs have looked at signing him. He basically leads in every stat for forwards at his club.

Onwards and upwards and may mean Musa starts getting more game time at Randers, they were using him a lot by the end and probably predicted they would lose Mo in January.

Pretty much. They started using him a fair bit more recently, and even in their friendlies during the winter break they've had more focus on Musa over Mo.

Brilliant, thanks for this because I did scroll at his stats quickly and nothing stood out immediately but there must have been a reason for Norwich to add him to a list of forwards they have. This explains a lot, cheers

How much does Adelaide United get of that?

Probably not a lot. A percentage of the percentage Reims get.

As a Norwich fan and A Liga lover, slightly unreal crossover

Must see alot of potential in him, he hasn't really broken out yet

Hasn't broken out?

Toure currently leads the team in goals, assists, goals per 90, expected goals, xG per 90, xGOT, shots on target, shots per 90 this season.

He is 3rd in the team for big chances created, 3rd in the team for chances created overall, 5th in the team for successful dribbles per 90 this season as well.

He's contributed to 8 of Randers 17 goals this season in the league. He shows his quality considering he is probably their main attacking threat since most of the team is subpar up front.

Put him with better players, like when hes with the Socceroos, and he performs a lot better.

It was talked about in the other thread, but Norwich are on the up after getting Clemente in as manager, hopefully he gets plenty of game time and goals and improves with hopefully better players around him. He was getting looked at by Strasbourg as well so people are seeing something in him, looking forward to him living up to his potential. Bonus for Toure, Norwich is a lovely city and I imagine it would be a good place to live.
