We don't need him busting a gut back in midfield when we have players like Nigel, Gareth or Jimmy. His job, in my mind, is to put the chances away that he gets.123abcd said:bridgeblue said:So far not good? He is a forward with a killer instinct who works hard, what more do you want?
I wasn't referring to the entire season, nor his work rate....and even mentioned that he showed that "killer instinct" in my post; no?
You cannot tell me that he had a good game or even a good month, can you. Admire his finishing touch but you're quickly forgetting the other 92 minutes and 55 seconds of his game today.
Agreed...his job is to put away the chances he gets; but his secondary job is to contribute to attacking play by making plays; making runs, moving ball, assisting, etc.
