The one problem I have with Fernando is how injury prone he is, he missed a large part of last season with injury and I have no doubt if he was fit for the whole of last season we would have won the league and this season looks like it is going the same he seems unable to play ten games in a row. When you are watching him play every time he gets a kick your heart is in your mouth.
I think it is daming on Rafa after 5 years he hasn't a suitable replacement for this lad when he is injured. Crouch, Bellamy and maybe Keane(I'm not sure about Keane though) would have provided us with a lot more back up then we have now.
When we sold Keane I thought we were meant to buy a replacement as Keane had replaced Crouch but for some reason we have been left very light up top.
