Better strikers? Pavlyuchenko, Keane and Defoe? He outscored the lot of them in his time there in regards of goal to game ratio but he was Defoe's foil and 'Arry loves Defoe.
This guy was banging in at least 15 goals a season for Charlton when he was a teenager and has kicked on from there.
He has pace, strength and can finish. He's done it against all the big sides and doesn't fade from a game. If he signs for a bigger club i guarantee his success because he's a damn good player.
What part of his game don't you rate by the way? The only thing he doesn't do is fancy flicks and tricks. Brilliant positioning, excellent movement, strong on both feet, can head a ball.
