Blimey it does not take much to sway peoples opinions on here these days.
We used to be a far less impatient, much more tolerant site, and differed from the others because we were not so knee jerk and were prepared to give players a chance,and cut them a bit of slack but here we are half a dozen games into the new season and everyone seems fair game, it's not the SCM that I first joined, in fact I thought that was one of the reasons the site was born, that and a con-man.
As the original thread said, Suarez looks to be a little off-form, not a lot came off for him last night, his touch was not what it usually is, but he kept working and making a nuisance of himself.
On form he is obviously a good goal scorer.

[/quote]How is it knee jerk? Go back and check the thread from before the season starts and MOST people predicted Carroll to be our top scorer. Its got NOTHING to do with form. No one is slating the lad, i think hes amazing, one of the best ive seen in a red shirt. I just dont see him as a natural goalscorer. He looks a 1 in 3 scorer which (so far) is what he is.

Sorry it was the shite in front of goal comment that threw me.

[/quote]Christ Vlad youve known me long enough to know how I speak by now.
And it is the same as i always have.
I think youre being a bit precious about it big lad, I really dont think hes a natural goalscorer at all (as i clarified earlier) certainly not at the level required in the premiership.
Maybe i'll be proved wrong, and that would be great, but he's missed sitters in almost every game ive seen him in, (2 yesterday, 1 awful one vs Stoke, the chip he missed when one on one against Sunderland....there are others) the concerns are genuine. Lets not be silly about it, EVERYONE would put him as first name on the team sheet but we need to think about helping him more, because hes a bergkamp not an henry.
Just to clarify my point, Aguero has scored more goals than Suarez in 3 starts. Suarez has been here 8 months.
[/quote] No old chum, I was not being flippant, or precious, I meant sorry, the comment threw me a bit from your intended point. I do think there is a big difference between being a natural goal scored and shite in front of goal though.
I would not get too carried away with any of it , as in fro t of goal is just part of his worth.
