The problem is that he's simultaneously our only consistent finisher and creator, ....

(This could easily be JRod, Ramirez or Lallana if they just got more clinical and composed in front of goal)

JayRod seems to be heading in that direction. I believe he will be our key man next season.

He needs to clean off his shooting boots if he is to fulfil his potential. He had a similar chance to Bale in the Spurs game, easier actually, but he declined the shot and passed it on. If only he could add a bit of Lambert to his game.

I agree; plenty of room for improvement, yet I think he is progressing nicely. I am liking the way he is looking to beat his man when he finds himself wide and beyond the half way line.

Does anyone ever think he Will have the power of Lambert in his shot? This is one of Rickies key assets when it comes to scoring. Not sure I've ever seen a player with that power (+accuracy).

Probably not, but as Brian Clough once said, "You don't have to break the back of the net to score."
 
He would be good cover for Clyne/Shaw as Clyne could be moved over to left back. We do need at least 1 full back in the transfer window.

Not quite sure that I'd drop 5m for one, though. Ronnie Stam is, best I'm aware, on a free this summer; he'd make for sufficient cover.
 
What's the point of a link? All it would be is one sentence that goes into less detail than what DTLW posted. <laugh>

It does at least verify that he wasn't just making it up himself (not that many of the places you'd link to are particularly more trustworthy but you know...)
