I still think his move is good for both sides. I felt he just wasn't good enough to be honest.
Yeah, he is a good finisher but that's just not good enough for me. His overall contribution is just poor, IMO.
Being with us for almost 3 years, he's too lightweight, hardly has the pace (i heard that was his best attribute) to beat anyone and is just too greedy.
I understand strikers need to be greedy at times (if not, they won't score) but when you've missed tons of chances, give someone else a go as against Braga (I think) where he's missed 3 or 4 chances and steals the ball off Joe Cole when he was about to shoot and missed! Cole, may have been poor throughout his time here but he was in a better position to shoot and would have scored, IMO.
All in all, bought for 1.5 mil, sold for 4 mil? It was time for him to move on.
However, all the best to him at Bolton and hopefully he scores in his first game!
