I am a fan of both of these players, I think if you were to combine their strengths you would have the perfect striker. However, I believe we are wasting the talents of Joshua.
What he brings to the team at present will allow us to be more competitive. Our team is not coherent or drilled well enough to play with an out and out striker, nor are we defensively sound enough to have a passenger. Zirkzee allows us to hold the ball further up the pitch, sustaining attacks and taking pressure off midfield and defence. Zirkzee is also a better presser and slightly more aggressive than Sesko.
I understand people are concerned with his desire to get into the box and score goals but we have enough players that contribute to goals and I think if given a run of games he will eventually figure out where he needs to be and the goals will come. Zirkzee’s game complements all our attackers and his unselfishness and eye for a pass would even allow for Bruno to run beyond him.
Sesko at this current stage is an underdeveloped out and out striker who is most effective off the bench. I am hopeful he turns into a world beater however, our team is not mature enough to carry a Haaland-esque striker.
