I have to say though, I like my strikers to be capable of scoring goals. I guess I'm just old fashioned.
It's a good point well made, me too. I like my singers to be able actually to sing, in much the same way.

Comparing Chris O'Grady with Brazil 1970 is like comparing Dawn French with Michelle Keegan.
Give it till Christmas when they are floating around the drop zone and he has scored barely any goals.
See how good they think he is then.
I guess you don't want Zamora? Most of our strikers struggled in our 1 up front system, Chris would have done better in our current set-up. But Hughton doesn't need him at the moment, so at least COG is doing well somewhere.I have to say though, I like my strikers to be capable of scoring goals. I guess I'm just old fashioned.
Is this right?Injured
Gone back to Brighton
I remember the first games of Leo at Leicester... they thought he was the bee's knees ( I actually still think he is). However his form dipped and the fans really were on his case on the chat lines. CoG is in the same position. Great start but give it 10 games and he's scored one goal and the chat show will be at his throat. Thoroughly honest nice bloke and footballer but probably League 1. I still wish him well!

No, it was a joke
This could - I said could - be another sign that there are a fair few teams in this division who simply aren't yet playing to the standard we're currently setting, even to a greater extent than that suggested by the currently league table alone.
There. I've just absolutely TORN it.
Oh, right. Cheers. Was it funny?
If he does well it will add to his value next summer.
OK. Nothing against COG, but I think getting an O'Grady tattoo might just be funny (in a sad sort of way).I think he was winding up the guy who said he is going to get O'Grady's name tattood on him.

He was absolutely slaughtered after that shocking game against Walsall but at the very least this proves he does have the ability. Proper target man.
You sound like you want him and them to fail miserably. I hope they do well, but fail to make the play offs, but well enough, to want to buy him off of us. I liked him as a player, and he's clearly got ability at this level scoring 15 for Barnsley. He just wasn't the right fit for us.
