How many goals has he scored in how many games?
?
20 goals in 183 appearances.....
Do you measure that against the record of an average forward or an average midfielder?
I think most people are pretty much agreed that he isn't a forward, but as an attacking midfielder he can do a job.
He runs at people with pace and that scares opponents. He just needs to work on his final pass, his crossing and his finishing for when he gets those chances that his pace creates.
The problem is that he's been a pro for 7 or 8 seasons and doesn't really seem to have progressed. Although like most have said...if he had progressed then he wouldn't be with us anyway!!
