For once we were on the same sideImagine having to convince people this guy isn’t rubbish
Obviously his performance depends on the service and continuity behind him but it's also on him to put forth this kind of effort match to match which he hasn't done in this poor spell.
Thinks it works better in some games than others. We saw similar to what we saw today against Leeds last season, but we’ve also seen it not work.But AM told me he was over the hill.
In all seriousness, having three creative players and guys who find his runs did wonders for him today. Needs to build on this.
He absolutely does not always close down or compete for the ball in the air like he did today. Now granted, it's easier to do when you feel it will actually result in something and you're getting service but he's got to do it regardless and that hasn't always been the case in the past season. He was great today but he needs to be this assertive all the time.Nah the effort is one thing that's always been there from him. He really has busted his balls for us this past year.

He's hasn't just stood around but I feel that he has it in him as he showed today to force the opponent into errors as well as to try to make something happen when the service is ideal. I much prefer to see him harassing the keeper and making the CBs challenge him in the air and potentially give away fouls than just putting in a shift that isn't particularly focused if that makes sense. If he's not scoring or even if he is, I want any expenditure of energy on his part to be like it was today, where it makes the whole team more dangerous.Yeah maybe your right. In my opinion though he's put in some proper miles the last year or so when it would've been easier for him to sulk about the lack of service.
This is what we should really be doing with a guy you’ve committed such a contract to though.
Glad his performance hasn’t gone under the radar, he was a huge part of our win. Ran the channels, won headers, held the ball up, linked play.. excellent performance from an excellent striker.
Fancy him to score bucket loads this season. As per.
