Lack of pace and coordination generally.

Only really useful as a target, and generally shit at that.

See Andy Carroll.

Edit: I really hope our Ukrainian delegation sorted a deal for Kono in the summer. I have little doubt he could do it in this league.

Trabzonspor are like 9th or 10th in their league and yet Juve, the Italian powerhouse, has only scored one goal at HOME against them? After all it does seem that Parma must take the responsibility of leading Italian teams to new heights.

Normally its someone who looks ungainly when running, and doesn;t seem to have much control over their body or the ball. Think Carroll or Altidore.

Doesn't normally apply to strikers like Soldado

Suen pls. The match isn't over. Trabzonsport might draw yet.

I like what I've seen of Sanogo but he really needs to score a goal before I can truly believe it's worth dropping Giroud to start him. as much as I like the idea of him opening up defenses just as a physical presence (and an aerial target), he needs to be able to finish chances too. Otherwise, we may as well just shove Vermaelen to play up front.

He would've scored yesterday if not for Neuer's amazing goalkeeping.

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
That was an AVB level high line from Spurs.

All came from stupid passing high up the pitch. We have not looked after the ball well enough, of you give it away cheaply you can always be caught. Lazy defending from Vertonghen to go with it.
