What a game today but watching Keane and Pav again this year I really feel there is a gulf between them two and Crouch and Defoe.
Pav just lacks the pace to run a defender or get on the end of things when he needs do. Kolo Toure was immense but late on there was a chance Pav had that I just feel Defoe would have been first to.
Keane struggled with the pace of the game too but I see move value in keeping him (look at his positioning for the bale mis-cued header) than Pav as you just know keane can help unlock crappy teams.
Dos Santos looked poor to me, him and keane kept giving the bloody ball away, but I hope Dos Santos can deliver because we need some wide pace on the bench.
I think we can be happy with Defoe and Crouch but we need better boys, we need some quick bugger upfront that can score!!!!
