Everybody talks of his shoulder injury as the turning point, but he was already playing poorly by then. Perhaps he has just been worked out. It often happens once Prem defences have seen you a few times.

My problem with him is his work rate. Used to track back and hassle defenders. These days just stands around as if he is something special. Needs a rocket up his arse that's for sure.

Suspect confidence is a lot to do with it too - has the quality and skill as we've all seen and that will come back (i hope!)

However, first half yesterday, there was virtually no service to them. How much is down to lack of effort up front and how much is down to lack of support and decent passes is hard to say, but as a team, we need to work it out. Chelsea's strikers are still shit, yet they're still scoring goals. Our goals are drying up which is making the defensive issues more of a problem
