WTF?Honestly looked like the others weren't too bothered to involve him in the game. He's not being given a proper chance in my opinion.

He's been getting into good positions but the mids are choosing to play other passes or run with it themselves. Normally you would expect players to be looking for the centre forward. I could understand if he wasn't getting into good positions but he is.WTF?
Thrust in Vincent and Poch.
This is like the Soldado thread circa early 2014 - Groundhog DayHe's been getting into good positions but the mids are choosing to play other passes or run with it themselves.

This.So we've gone years and years without a striker capable of scoring 20 goals a season, and now that we finally have one, our back up has to be held to the same standards? The kid is 22 and has barely played for us, give him a break. His hold up play and work rate has been excellent - the goals will come.
If you offered me Janssen or Adebayor a few seasons back you can bet your ass I'd be taking Vincent every time.
Yep. Very strong, unsettles defences & allows the 3 behind to exploit gaps. Which is what Harry was doing last year before he found his scoring boots. It's a matter of time before he starts banging them in & even when he isn't, he is no passenger in the team. He's a fucking nuisance to defences which is part of a strikers role. When defenders start leaving him to try & plug the gaps is when he will start scoring.So we've gone years and years without a striker capable of scoring 20 goals a season, and now that we finally have one, our back up has to be held to the same standards?

:defoe:He'll be fine. Just needs to learn the offside rule.
I'm writing him off being a decent deputy to Kane, he hasn't even spat on himself yet.
I actually really like him and think he's doing just fine.

That's not a curse, that's one player who didn't quite match exprctations!Forgot to add that the curse started with Bobby Soldier in 2013

....how about; "Was shit with knows on, but scored a (winning) Penalty on his debut, so bought himself an extra coupla weeks"And thats a massive understatement
