Come to think of it, that Spurs game is the one video I have seen of him this season, and I remember thinking that he looks like he's ready to explode, ready to harness that world class ability he has always had and find real consistency, in performance and in end product. That's why I'm a little surprised I haven't heard much about him, but I have been a little removed from it all this season, so maybe it's me.
Definitely the sort of forward we need, but you'd be looking for him to (very quickly) turn into a 15 goal-a-season footballer if we were to spend the sort of money on him that would make Newcastle part with him. Not sure he can be relied on for that. Does he has the personality, the maturity, the physical make-up to be a 50-game a season footballer, producing most weeks he plays?
