I can forgive a striker if he just isnt good enough
I can forgive a striker if to be fair he isnt getting the chances

But what I cannot forgive is a striker who puts in no effort, is lazy and stands there waving his arms rollocking his team mates all the time. Just compare Earnshas effort to Alan Smiths effort and work rate. Smith runs his balls off, chases every ball, sprints across the line, puts in the challenges but I have not seen any of that from Earnshaw. He dids a severe kick up the ass, he is supposed to be fighting for this club....but he comes across as not giving a toss. Appalling start from him....we want effort Earnshaw and not lazy arrogance.
