Flemming last season.... 17:54 - Aug 31 with 2882 views

....scored the same amount of league goals as:

Mbuemo
Richarlison
Sesko
Ekitike

He scored more than:

Rogers
Cunha
Palmer
Bowen
Beto
Jiminez
Bruno
Barry
Woltemade
Gakpo
Wilson
Brobbey
Salah

etc, etc, etc.

Anyone saying he's overpriced isn't being realistic.

On the face of it, it's a decent signing (if it happens)

He’s also terrifically handsome in an 80s action movie villain way.

The price is much as you might expect. The goalscoring record last season was good, he was very efficient last season. However... last season was an outlier in that respect - he scored from 20% of his shots. Season before 15%, before that 8%, before that 12%. Maybe he just finally cracked it in that respect? But he wouldn't be the first forward we signed off the back of a season where they just kept scoring from every shot and regretted it.

That's by the by though really. Bigger question is whether he leads the line well. Only Wolves were worse than Burnley going forward and not much about Flemming's out of possession game, hold up play or pressing game looks very outstanding. Would be a shame to recruit such threatening forwards and not get them in the game because the 9 can't bring them into it.

You are right, he is not overpriced, however listing all those players that he scored more goals than is rather futile.
At Burnley he probably had most of the teams chances whilst he likely did not create much in way of chances for his teammates. Comparing his goals to players like Bruno, Gakpo and Salah is not a way to demonstrate his value.
