Wheres Marcus Stewart of Ipswich and Kevin Phillips (Sunderland days) in your lists, Footy? Didn't they pwn the Prem in the early years of the nu millenia ?
He gets into key positions which is a great trait to have as a forward. He seems to just know where to be.
He's got two goals in three games albeit in the cup but I think he will score a lot more for us he's carried on where he left off last season.
He is a natural, instinctive goal poacher the like of which we have not had since the days of Gary Shaw, Dwight Yorke and to slightly lesser degree Darren Bent. He will do us well.
I liked the way he took his goal last night, letting the ball run across him, and using his left foot, when taking it with his right might have been the natural thing to have done. It shows he is full of confidence and enjoying the challenge that comes with the step up.

Let’s see how he does in the EPL. I’m hopeful.
