Does anyone else not think JVOH is just a heed-the-baw?

He NEVER EVER takes the ball in/holds it up to bring others into play.

All he does when he wins a header (which i would say is 50% of the time being generous) is heed the baw behind him in the hope skippy is there to pick up the peices. He is a far cry from Sutton/Hartson who frequently won fouls and held up play introducing players etc.

When was the last time he scored a decent goal with his foot?

For a guy of his size he has a very poor physical presence.

When Samaras came on the difference was striking. He at least attempts to bring the ball in introduce others and even dribble and shoot!!

Sorry guys

your thoughts?
Seems to me like his heads down a bit, I met him in Milan, and he's a really nice big quiet guy, so I think he's taking a lot of the abuse really badly.

He does look a bit clumsy up front at times but he's still puttin the ball in the pokey at vital times.

Doesnt look as sharp at all this year, but all the injuries cant have helped.
