I hope we play to his strenghts.
It's high risk deal to be honest, but there are certain ways in which he'd almost certainly be deadly.
When you look at his goals for Samp for example, you see he is very useful when we can break forward quickly. Most of his goals are from counters or situations where his team won the ball high up the pitch. If we can get him room to run direct towards goal, we'll be getting a great goalscorer.
If Dortmund had bought him to replace Götze/Lewandowski, I'd have little doubt that he would've fit in almost immediately.
But with history of Inter, he'll have to press against 3 defenders alone and in most situations play against a team that sits in two lines of 4 in front of their goal without any help from teammates. And he definitely isn't the striker to work in such conditions.
When putting him into Mazzarri's Napoli, I fancy him more in Cavani role than in Lavezzi role.
