The main issue is his ability to hold the ball up - he really isn't very good at that. I think he's actually quite good at assists/lay-offs and his conversation rate is sometimes good/sometimes bad. Hold up or lay offs are two different things, as you know. Holding the ball up until you get support, players breaking forward at pace and laying it off is what I am talking about which he did well at. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 15,021 Posted September 27 Author Share Posted September 27 Holding the ball up against four or five defenders isn't easy. It's a tough ask. But there's having a good go at it and there's just falling on your arse. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil's advocaat 1,510 Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 The guys positioning and anticipation is incredibly good, really top class, he gets himself into goalscoring positions frequently, every game. I'll give him that. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like every good striker, he has the ability, temperament and mindset not to let missed chances bother / get to him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMAA 3,658 Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 Hoping this gives us a morale boost that we can kick on from. No shots on target against is very encouraging. Have to say I thought Malmo were tactically awful and we will have much tougher games ahead in Europe. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, they're shite, so we need to beat them. We've been starting fast recently, at least for a good few weeks. Even at Parkhead we were on top initially. If we start playing like we do in the first 30 from 30-90 we'll be a decent outfit imo. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post yuddie 1,686 Posted September 28 Popular Post Share Posted September 28 On Dessers, he excels in one and two touch hold up/link play imo. If you're firing it into him with no immediate runners he struggles badly. Which is why I think Bajrami in the 10 will make a big difference - you saw that the other night with how they linked up through the middle. Lawrence just hasn't got the legs for it. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's one of our major flaws - we do play some nice stuff but it usually lasts three or four minutes and manage it two or three times per match. We need the good spells to last longer. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
