from the 2014/15 stats page on the offical club site:
Kazenga LUALUA (Midfielder) 3 assists, 2 in the league & 1 in the cup.

For such a good crosser and creative player, that is a seemingly poor statistic.

I think you'll find that's more down to the ability of our strikers/midfielders not being able to get on to the end of the balls put across the box.

He's quality, but this season I have seen him do that more than once, that is burst down the wing 3/4 of the pitch, then check his run and hold the ball up. Under some circumstances that might be the best option, but the general rule for a player like Kaz is either cut inside and shoot as he sometimes does, or otherwise get yourself to the byline. This in between stuff of getting 30 yards out and then dancing around trying to figure out what to do, it doesn't work for him. It's not his game, it sacrifices the burst of energy and pace that he brings, and I don't understand why he keeps doing it.
