    Yep swap him with Dwain Chambers and you'd see the same result tbh.

The very fact he has that asset means that sure his options might not be plentiful but the one option he has is on more often than not because there isn't as much time for the goalkeeper to get set, to cover the angle. You mention the one he missed but his second goal against Tottenham was very similar to that one missed. However if you maintain it would be better on the left, well then he'd be in the mirrored position and without being 'played up front' (and to be fair in your defence I am particularly thinking of the goal against Shakthar when he has come in on that angle on the left), though that just goes to prove our front three have license to go elsewhere!

    And I said he's worth trying as the next option 'up front' but not when RVP is already there.
    The second goal he scored leaves no room for error. He hit it with the laces and it was like the goal that burst a net last season. You get no bend on of those shots and have to get the power and accuracy to get it under the keeper and on target. It's a much harder finish. Plus, it also helps that he wasn't coming in from such a wide angle. He was a little closer to the centre that time.

He has been with us 6/7 years and has not improved nout do do with where he is being played.
