Cronky Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I've never been a fan of his, but I've got to admit he did well last night. He really seems to have worked on his fitness, and he linked well with the midfield on occasion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Seems to get better and better. Don't think the argument that he's shit in open plays and just poaches goals holds anymore. His general play is far better than Shola's. Would be a pleasant surprise if he keeps getting better and ends up being a respectable Premiership striker. Then again, if that happened, we'd probably sell him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Our best player last night, doesn't say a lot about our performance mind, as I've seen Besty play far better. Really does work hard though, getting better on the ball, good feet (and uses both), quite strong with his back to goal and brings others into play. Oh and he has a knack of scoring/getting a shot off when presented with a chance. Pretty much the polar opposite to the buffoon playing alongside him last night. Best on his own running channels and Marv/HBA/Vuckic playing behind him, or Ba and Best together. Shola should not be starting FFS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolution Number 9 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Liking his play more and more Puts the effort in and he's a better technical striker than we give him credit for I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 He's got a few tricks that seem to work. Don't like him in combo with Shola, not sure he'll work well with Ba either. But, as has been said by many on here, 2 similar players upfront is helping us get at the oppostion. Especially as our crossing is non existent or from too deep.

Guest ykmkmdd Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Best of a bad bunch last night - think he'll benefit more than most from the return of Ben Arfa, might actually get some of his runs picked out, and have someone to pass to....

jdckelly Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Did well with the little service he had, the turn and shot which kenny saved was pretty good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Best has a decent amount of attributes that we can do with. He's alright on the ball. Was impressed with his superb skill that forced our best chance of the game at the start of the game. Deserves better than Shola Immobilityeobi by his side.

Dinho lad Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Looked hungry and worked hard..... unlike that cunt Shola. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Our first choice now. Could form a decent partnership with Ba or just playing alone upfront. In fact, anything but playing Shola would be great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Any reason why? I'd forgot I'd even made that. Also can't believe I didn't just think to copy the faces into paint and use the fill tool instead of trying to colour them in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Should be one of the first names on the teamsheet. Will score a lot of goals this season with the right service. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the match today - In terms of goal to games, Leon Best had the fifth best goalscoring record in Premier League history, behind Henry, Aguero, Klasnic and Javier Hernandez. He now has the fourth Best, at the expense of Klasnic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
