watched him carefully yesterday and the thing that stood out was he doesn't make any runs to create space and is clearly not on the same wavelength as Rob and Stevie. His big asset is he can score but doesn't give the team enough options. When Bojinov came on it was immediately obvious the difference. He was running across the line and moving the centre back away from centre. For me he's just not good enough for a top team.

IMO he seems to take ages to do anything, he looks awkward controling the ball, and when he has it under control it takes him ages to pass it and bring others into the game

He was rubbish yesterday. I know he scored but most of us couldve buried that. Didnt hold the ball up or win a single ball in the air.
I think he will develop into a decent striker but he's miles off yet. Jo was far better today for the bluedippers, held the ball up well all afternoon.

nice to see someone who has the same opinion as mine, so therefore an all round great bloke with football knowledge a top asset....;)

Well, considering Mark Hughes was the best 'back-to-goal' striker of his generation, l am happy to let him be the judge of whether Caicedo has what it takes.
Certainly ,big Phil has improved markedly over the last few months, he is scoring goals and we are on a decent little winning streak.
He is 20 yrs old ffs ,far too early to judge, get off his back and be happy he is gaining invaluable experience and improving with every game.

didnt Jo miss a sitter from 6 yards out?...
I`m all for strikers giving options and holding the ball up, but in the end I want them to stick the ball in the back of the net.
Personally I think Caceido has good potential...

I agree he has potential, but we have a better option in Boj.
