He's not deadly in the 6 yard box though, he's deadly with the ball at his feet pretty much anywhere within 30 yards of goal. He's far from being just a poacher, although recently that's where his goals are coming from.

 

He's also very capable of linking up with the other forwards which usually gets ignored due to his his sometimes erratic touches.

 

Remind me how many assists he has this season? He may be a very good finisher but his link up play makes Sissoko look like Iniesta.

More Premier League assists than current our set piece taker for the record.

10 goals this season without playing very much, hes most certainly the least of our problems, he seems to be over his utter inability to score goals, if this man is given chances he will score, as shown against Palace when our first decent bit of service resulted in a cracking headed finish.

 

Same old story though, under a decent manager he would hit 15-20 goals a season.

Cisse has more PL assists in his career than Colback.

As if assists are relevant anyway when you put the ball in the back of the net every 75 minutes.

Lovely guy to boot. As long as we keep getting balls into the box (and by that I mean Janmaat keeps putting balls into the box), he will continue to score.

 

He's just a natural goal scorer if you can get some decent service. No one else attacks the penalty area like he does for us. So fuck if he doesn't do enough outside the box. I've always thought that part of his game has been criticised too much.

It used to get criticized when Pardew had us lumping long balls at him from the defence. Now that we have Janmaat marauding down the flank and crossing in like a proper fullback, Cisse can just prowl the penalty box as is his strength.

Rivière attacked the near post well to set up the chance as well, two up front can make a difference sometimes.

 

Aye, this too. They were a handful at times for the Villa defence. It definitely kept them on their toes.

Riviere is the opposite of Cisse. I really like some of the work he does outside the box, but he doesn't look like he's got the appetite for goals.
