Wullie Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 When you make an impact like he did, it is impossible to live up to that. Interesting how Jelavic who almost matched him goal for goal has also struggled this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Thought he had a great allround game today. Skied and soft placed shots aside, yes, was good. Just hope nowt comes of the hand incident. In the past, and stated very clearly in the rules once a player receives a yellow card for an incident they cannot be punished afterwards....but the FA I'm sure will make an exception for us no doubt.

Interesting how Jelavic who almost matched him goal for goal has also struggled this season. Benched today for Everton and has had a pretty identical record to Cisse since they both arrived. He's been playing directly up top in a far better team this season too, although you could potentially argue the same for Cisse last time around maybe using "slightly" instead of "far".

toontownman Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Always works hard for the team.. Some shocking Misses though, perplexing player. World beater when he is on Jason Lee infront of goal when he is off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Sensational piece of link up play for the equaliser. Comparisons with Darren Bent are very silly indeed. 10 times the player. I wouldn't swap him for anyone outside if the 2 Manc teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I wish he would dart to the near post more when we've got it down the wing. Yeah, Jonas' delivery is generally pap - regardless of what side he's on - but some balls aren't a total lost cause. Particularly from the right hand side, the crosses don't have a great deal of length but could still be salvaged if the onrushing attackers made a gamble towards the near post. It doesn't have to result in a shot straight away, but at least we've retained possession and have the ball in their box. We're all aware of how poor our transition play is; when we lose possession we're still susceptible to the odd counter-attack, that's been evident all season. We concede a lot of attacks from failed crosses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We concede a lot of attacks from failed crosses. He doesn't relish a physical challenge, and trying to beat a defender to a near post cross usual involves a bit of a tussle. He prefers to stay in a gap between defenders in the hope that the cross will elude them and he gets a free header. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
