PlayItLivo Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Using your terminology I'd consider a team's "primary striker" to be the one who is invariably the top goalscorer and not necessarily a target man. Wait, isn't that what I said....he's not a goalscorer, thus he's not the primary striker. He's similar to Tounkara, you wouldn't expect him to get 20 goals a season because his game is about creating chances for others with his hold up play, headers on, flick ons, etc. Hence when you play a goalscorer (primary striker) off your secondary striker (whether it be a target man like Abbott or a grafter like Feeney or Warne) you're hoping the primary striker can use the chances carved out by the secondary striker to score a goal. I don't understand what is hard to grasp about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlayItLivo Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 abbott is :censored:e simples. Still saved us from relegation last season. :-) No it's not what you said otherwise I wouldn't have queried your statement. Abbott not a goalscorer,haha. Obviously when I say goalscorer I mean he's not the main goalscoring threat of a team, he's not the 20+ goal scoring striker that will get you promoted. He was our main threat last season because we had nobody else. And he did well to play target man and goalscorer, manage 13 goals whilst having a spell injured. Wow, that's incredible when you think of it. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafcshuck Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Quality this lad, although i feel with Lewi/Evina/Black do we really need him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaticsLee Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 its just my opinion, he has only scored this season against league two side ( i think ) and he hardly starts at charlton, last season he looked good because he was surrounded by :censored:e players or players who couldnt be arsed playing for a like penny. now he is at a club where he is surrounded by good players he has been found out he is average player. just.

oafcprozac Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Still saved us from relegation last season. :-) Erm nope, the catalyst was Lewis Guy, Abbott did nowt from February onwards. When the chips were down he went missing. Whether he should have been playing or not is by the by. his poor form has continued to be pisspoor at The Valley culminating in him being publicly criticised by his manager and dropped. However, I did like Pav and felt sorry for him at times with the lack of service he received - my attitude changed when he went missing for the last 8 weeks of the season and Dickov has been proved right in selling him. Obviously when I say goalscorer I mean he's not the main goalscoring threat of a team, he's not the 20+ goal scoring striker that will get you promoted.

Scored at Mongs as well in the Freight Rover Trophy but still no league goal and that's unlikely to happen with him on the bench.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Let's not forget it was Pav who created many of those golden 1 v 1 opportunities for the mighty Keigan Parker. I rate Pav. But we've moved on and I like what I'm watching at BP these days, so lose no sleep over his departure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc-latics Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 with white coming in, we've got six players who could compete for 2 places. it's always good to have competition but i think dickov is creating possibly more than he needs, especially if the loaned-out players come back and want to play. i hope he knows what he is doing because we need to get rid of players like worthington, lomax, purdie, jacobson and even gregan unfortunately. im not trying to count out white before he even plays and i hope he is a useful loan player for us, but if we're in the :censored:, how can we afford to have a squad of 30-odd players. this move probably means jacobson is going, but it might mean moving alessandra upfront as the striker to play off tounkara.
