Is he premier league standard? Even top prem?
For me he seems to have a lot more to his game than just goals, he is quick, good in the air, can hold the ball up well and still only 22 years old so has his best years ahead of him!
I personally think he has a very bright future ahead of him but unfortunately probably not with Charlton but at least if he did ever leave we should get a good price.
Am I overrating this guy or is he the real deal?

He has only been with us for 4-5months and has definitely impressed...but not to the point where a premier league club would take a punt on him. Still has much more to prove before that happens.
He scores goals and is a good presence upfront. Suitable for championship level. He is a handful for defenders.
Contracts perhaps don't mean sh*t these days along with player power and the money that maybe offered to us, but he is still ours to lose.
Season after next, i think he is in the top tier, just hope that is with us.
I actually think there is much more to come from the player than we've seen thus far.
Igor is injury prone, can't score one on one, and is too short!
He should stay at CAFC for 10 years and be our top scorer of all time. (:>
The thing that excites me most is that he hasn't, IMO, been fully fit since the end of August. If he sorts out the little niggles he has had I'll be amazed if he doesn't get 20+ goals this season.
Think BP is the reason he is here and suspect he'll show him some loyalty when the premier league sharks inevitably start circling.
Whether he is here next season is anyone's guess. He is still young and I think that will bump his price up, but suspect a bid of 6-7m in the close season would see him move on.
I've posted elsewhere that the recent change in FFP rules is going to really ramp up transfer fees next summer. Perhaps an additional £100m+ will be spent by clubs pushing for promotion - and Vetokele / Gudmundsson will be targets.
This in turn means that just by signing these two (with more to come) that M.Duchatelet and Staprix have made CAFC sustainable overnight!
We give it a go this season and whatever happens CAFC might receive upto £10m next summer. Annoying in some ways and I'm sure many will say we should hang on to top talenter, but at least we know our club has a future.
I'd be interested to see what the fanbase think as we approach the halfway mark...should CAFC go for it with more signings in January or build more slowly, selling on the way...or perhaps a mix of both?
Would you come to CAFC and take a 40K a week drop.?
I just hope we can get a couple of seasons from him. Not only would our asking price skyrocket if he continues the way he's going but he might also deflect the attention from some of our other desirable players such as Johann or Jordan.
I really don't think we've seen the best of him yet. Stick a decent target man beside him and I think he'll show us another level of his game..................
