The goal he scored shows that there's a bit of talent in there. Jo's got a lot of problems though. The guy has a severe lack of tenacity, little drive and absolutely zero aggression. His awareness in the box is poor in the sense that he often doesn't realise how good the chances he's getting are and as a result doesn't finish them clinically enough. There was one instance against west ham where the ball fell to him in the are and he just leaned back and spooned it high and wide, and numerous ones alst night. Proper strikers' eyes light up when the ball drops to them anywhere near the box and they finish them, I get the feeling Jo often doesn't realise how good a chance is when he gets one. He drifts along far too much and doesn't impose himself on the game. The premiership seems way too tough for him and he really eneds to man up if he's gonna cut it here, which I don't think he will.
I think Mancini likes him because there is a bit of talent in the lad, he's young enough to improve and he's also versatile enough to play on the left side of attack as back up to Balo (unlike RSC and Ade) and he adds a bit of height for us to aim for. I'll still be astounded if he cuts it here though
