did he work better with cahill ? scored more goals

 

[Hellerad]

All he needs is robot legs and Iniesta behind him and he'll come good.

 

[lmurkder]

he played the european championships. certainly has something to do with his current form

 

[ToffeeMike]

Someone lend him some ankle tapes see if that helps.

Those YouTube videos showed me two main things about his goal scoring.

Either knock it long over the top to run onto and let him do the rest, or give him the ball at his feet in the box and he'll slot.

Someone needs to make him watch them Youtube videos... remind him what he was, his confidence just seems to have gone

There were a few times against Oldham where it was played in behind the defence and his control let him down completely, it's got to be his confidence. Hope he finds his touch on Saturday.

All of this isnt happening because of Fellaini and sticking him on the edge of the box (on top of his confidence).

Jesus Christ.

Now I want to cry.

You wouldnt think its the same player looking at him now.

I reckon that early season injury effected him badly, lost all momentum he had.

 

[Arteta2391]

Clearly not our answer up top.

 

[MartSlinger]

Clearly not our answer up top.

Bet you said the complete opposite last season.

 

[icburns]

Euro 2012 happened. He'll be back.

 

[SchoolOfScience]

Looking at that Youtube clip of his goals makes me think its definitely a confidence thing, he's just not getting the bounce of the ball like he did for a couple of goals in the clip.

Also we look a lot more compact in the final 3rd of the pitch this year I think with no creative edge through the middle whatsoever which allows teams to nullify our left hand side without too many repercussions.

Hey, 3 of those 9 open play goals were assists from Fellaini settig him up in the box.

For my 2 cents he's been relying on an out of form Pienaar and Gashsmith for balls into the box which is where he thrives, it's certainly not helping his cause.
