I have yet to see what the Mbok love is all about

He just seems like the latest in a long line of strikers who don't really do the one up top thing particularly well, who has the constant excuse of 'not getting the right service', but where we have no evidence that he'd bang in a ton if he did get the right service.

And I know that if we want the sort of striker who really does do the something from nothing we'd be paying a fortune that we don't have - but let's not confuse being a bit better than average as 'class'.
