In the first couple of games he looked big and strong, quick and with a great touch

Just barely got a clear chance on goal, coming in from the left wing.

I think as the team dipped in form his cards and rashness started increasing as he and the team looked so stretched. I'd love to see him deployed, yes deployed, down the middle as the lone striker as he seems to have all the attributes (pace, power, height, touch) that we crave, he just needs to control his temper when closing down defenders and not give away s**t fouls or bookings.

As for his finishing, both Grabban and Jerome have missed sitters so far this season, but thats because their one chance on goal has come 20 mins into a game and they've not had the multiple chances that the Championship invariably gives up.

I'm hopeful Jerome, Lafferty, RVW and some new excellent basterd should do us alright.
