The Curious Case of Nikica Jelavic and Papiss Cisse

[tim cahill]

No, but that's why it's good to look back the last three or so seasons and see that he is capable of slotting in those chances he gets himself into and that it is a momentary dip in form. This season we are also playing a bit of a different system and I guess we are also missing Gibson. And yeah he shouldn't be allowed / told to go wide but to go in to the box to slot.

A momentary dip in form doesn't last this long. We can't afford passengers and we've been carrying him too long. I'm not saying we should get rid, but it could do him good to be out of the team for a spell and have him coming off the bench.

Said it for weeks, Mirallas looked more likely to score in his little cameo.

Needs to be sold tbh, completely lost it.

Did I not just post and write that it might be a good idea to drop him? The thing is, which others have also said is that we don't really have an alternative that could lead the line for 90 minutes. Vic is getting better all the time but he's a big lad.

Keep launching 30 yarders and expecting them to come off (definition of madness is...)

Whereas last season we were putting low, hard balls in the box with Jelavic to swipe it in. We've done that once (vs Villa).

TBF Pele would have struggled in that EFC line up tonight with the two centre mids in Osman { who looks so tired } & PN who looks like he is finished!
