Perez should be played as a striker. He's our best finisher.
That's setting a very low bar seen as we've really got no good finishers - I'd say finishing is often what lets him down tbh.
For me, its the fact he doesn't know how to get on the ball enough. I'm not sure if it's a problem with his positioning, or being too passive, or what, but he just goes anonymous for way too much of matches for someone playing a position that should be the linchpin of our attacking play. I've referenced his "touches" stats, but he's the worst/minute on the team, and that's inexcusable for someone in his position.
All that said, I completely agree about how stupid and unfair it is to boo your own club's players, especially as they're coming on the pitch, or basically for any reason besides a lack of visible effort.
