The one where he scuffed it round the post then turned and winked at H Block?

Not quite. He passed it to a team mate who wasn't able to take a shot and winked at Gary Hart.

At West Ham, he had a header that went wide of the post.

Yes, but obviously we don't like him because he's French. He can't even spell Neil properly

What is it with foreign strikers? There's that Brazilian bloke who cant even spell Richardson properly.

Neal Maupay = 288 minutes per PL goal
Zamora = 350 minutes

Maupay = 163 minutes per Championship goal
Zamora = 187 minutes

Not saying that NM cant learn anything from Zamora but that the latter was somehow a much better goal scorer is a myth.

And Welbeck is better than all of them.

Bobby will always be my idol but on ability alone, Welbeck is the most complete striker we’ve had for many a year. Another outstanding display tonight.

He wants to coach our strikers:

We'll also be needing Murray for how to find space in the box, and if Connolly is coming back, Kaz to teach him how to fall over more convincingly with minimal contact.

I think Muzza had falling over at the slightest nudge in the back down to a fine art. A serious amount of free kicks won from Glenn.

Yep he never dived but certainly made the most of the contact.

Glenn was an absolute master of drawing contact and getting a foul. He got better and better at it with age too. He should be passing on his knowledge to our young strikers. Could probably run a few sessions along side the ones that Steve Sidwell does about when to foul and take one for the team, I believe he referred to it as the dark arts in commentary earlier this season.

This was ‘suggested’ at the Murray & Zamora event at the theatre royal. Glad it’s been enacted. I believe Bobby spoke about the advice Barry Hales gave him and how useful that was in his career and how he’d be open to passing on his knowledge too.

Watch Ferguson fly now!
