What a load of bollocks.

Why would you ask him to stop something that has generally been successful? Being direct and taking people on/shooting early and aggressively is one of the things that has made him special and stand out.

Its not as if we have loads of other capable goal scorers and I can't recall many situations when he clearly should have passed and if he had we would have scored.

Your clearly the never happy type of fan. The "Modric doesn't score enough" type of fan. The "He plays on the left" type of fan.

From my point of view its down to the others to step up and offer something more offensively, not down to a 21 year old striker to make it his job to start giving more goals to other players.
I think what @Strikeb4ck meant was that at times instead of playing to team mate who is in a better position, he at times over plays / dribbles then loses the ball, which is my only criticism of him. IMO, he has to be aware of other options at times.

Yes I understand but what I'm saying is that on the flip times sometimes him pushing forward leads to a goal. Against Chelsea on NYD to example, his first goal he was out wide and the "better option" would have been to pass to someone else. Instead he pushed inside, created a gap that wasn't there and scored a great goal out of nothing.

I wouldn't wish to discourage that so if a few times he comes across as greedy or loses the ball then so be it.

Oh don't get me wrong, I understand why he does it at times. One thing I am very negative on is our attack, it's been pathetic for years. Just so slow and unimaginative.

If Harry Kane wins another player of the month, he would of have won 20% of all player of the months awards given to the club. He would also be our joint top recipient with Bale.

Not bad for a player who some people didn't feel he should be in our squad at start of the season

If he does that I'll eat my pants.

It's ridiculous. Honestly makes a mockery of how great social media can be.

The best one was when Wilshere won goal of the season over Kasami last year.

Does anyone know when the winner will be announced? (the official one, not 90min)

If Coquelin or Henderson win, mods have permission to ban me for life
As much as I hate to say it, I think Giroud will win it. Kane and Giroud both scored 5 goals in March, but Giroud scored in all 4 of Arsenal's matches in March, whereas Kane only scored in two of them.

Yup Giroud for me as well. Don't think they'll give it to Kane purely for the fact it almost seems ridiculous that a 21 year old in his first season is winning it three times in a row when you think the likes of Ronaldo, Drogba, Henry were never able to do that.

I like how i wrote the same sentiment and got a few WTFs followed by a bunch of people writing about Giroud deserving it.. makes sense

Q....

Not that I gave you a rating, but I think it was because when I first read yours it didn't make sense due to the grammar or spelling (cba to go back and check). I also was wondering what you meant initially.
