He was absolutely superb today. Costa aside there is no one better at the role he plays.
Worked really hard but I thought he was poor. Other than his fantastic burst and pass to Livermore, his passing wasn't up to scratch. Still played his part in a solid team win.
Was surprised by a couple of fans around me who moaned about him throughout the game. He was being bear hugged by Shawcross and Martins-I most of the game. Sometimes it pays to look at what he does compared to the opposition central attackers....he does put in a hell of a shift and gets us into the right areas.
Not sure what game you were watching tbh pal. His hold up play and strength in protecting the balls up to him were superb. The Stoke fans are raving about him on the Oatcake and even Mark Hughes gave him a mention (http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p04rwyz5). Not sure what else you want from a lone striker?
Just needs a lucky break and a goal.
time to give someone else ago
