Re: Rafa's Success

Unlike some on here (& YNWA) I thought Kuyt played very well on Saturday.
BUT well as in he kept the ball,laid it off, found a man, moved into another position etc but ALWAYS 30-40 yards from goal!
Crouch has also impressed me in a similar way this season, but give him a quick gilt edged chance in a big game & he'll miss you think.

In fact if we had one chance in the box on Tuesday that we had to score, I'd go for Robbie alone.
BUT he is shot & can't give it 60 mobile enough minutes, let alone 90.

We need a lethal finisher (Eto, Villa etc would be fine, so would a fit Owen).
Kuyt (1st choice) & Crouch (2nd) would play well with such a striker.
As for Bellamy I can't quite make my mind up, he's 90% there but like the other two I wouldn't trust him to put away the goal in Athens in the 'must score' situation (or even at Anfield on Tuesday).
