I'm just more interested why you discount close range goals? You sound hard to please. Or is that an Aussy rules thing?
Higuain is a proven goalscorer. Better than any other striker we have except maybe Sturridge although he has glass legs.
Although you used the word "douche" so it's probably pointless engaging in conversation with you.
Sturridge scored a close range goal against Wales that showed his ability and class.
Lavezzi scored a close range goal that showed his movement and finishing.
Two great goals scored from close range that i haven't discounted because they show the ability of each player.
Higuain missed a one on one from 6 yards and then tapped home the rebound into an empty net (Lavezzi's pass, not Messi. My mistake) and then stood there with an open goal to tap into thanks to Messi for his second goal.
Why does this impress you? Is this an *insert your nationality* thing? Are you easily impressed? Do you glorify players because they're the flavour of the month? Have you watched him more than 5 times since moving to Napoli in the Serie A?
If you answer yes to any of the above, it is pointless engaging in conversation with you also
