Jelavic - another striker being strangled by Moyes?

You need to realise that we wont go about all are games in the manner we did the semi in the second half!. How deep we sat at times and was willing to try and contain and sit on our one nil lead was a joke!.

If we can get the right types of quality players in and around him, the likes of Pienaar and that type of quality, then i think Jelavic and us will do well cos he's quality. He leads the line, looks like he'll always score if given a chance and he can link up the play. Quality players click and play well together and we need to get the likes of Pienaar signed permanently and players of that ilk signed to play up there with him.

Attacking wise, with Jelavic in the team, we look good when attacking, we ping it off one touch, give and goes and alately it's produced good performances and goals but when Moyes pays certain teams too much respect and as the rest of the team sitting deep, Jelavic will get isolated and us as a team wont be as effective!.
 
Having a poacher in the side has given opposition defences some big anxiety.

Instead of being able to close out striker/s out and look to press our midfielders, suddenly we have an extra dimension and its making space and time for others.
 
He was isolated in the second half, but think he was pretty well supported in the first half. All down to defending imo.
 

Our strikers are always isolated against the 'bigger' teams who keep the ball better then us. It's the same old scenario every single game against them.
 
Just asking the question. Watching him completely isolated yesterday, 30 yards from a colleague in a blue shirt got me thinking that maybe with 6-12 months Jelavic might have become yet another casualty of DMism - that horrible disease that seems to beset quality strikers as soon as they've had some time playing for Davie. There's certainly previous examples, let's hope this isn't another one eh?


before i read other responses, i want to say i know of what you speak. but jelavic is not the kind of striker moyes ruins. moyes destroys creative, quick and fast pacy strikers. strikers who like to play football and make things happen. jelavic is a big twinkle toed donkey who doesn't care about flare, just kik ball in net or head ball in net when i see it. moyes is sexually stimulated by that. just get up there and if a round thing lands in front of you kick it. moyes kills creativity, not goal scorers. i hope
 

You cant really argue with his record at the mo, but every striker has left Moyes a a worse player than when they arrived

maight not be a fair comment really, but I'm so wound up still I just feel like slating the ginger ballbag for anything and everything


FAIR QUESTION. what striker has thrived under moyes? NONE. Most start out bang on fire, die out and get melted down for copper. the severed head of a venamous snake will strike and kill many times, but as it's killing, it's dying, and then is dead. SAME AS OUR STRIKERS UNDER MOYES. JELAVIC PROVE ME WRONG. or any of you lot.
 
Yep, badly gash he is.

Gash like a FOX.

What? Uh-oh.

Yakubu's 21 goals lid. He slotted like a boss slotting thing all over the show. Then his achilles burst into flames sadly.
