    so far he has been used as the player who receives the ball holds it up and lays it off for someone else-perhaps he ought to be the one playing off a target man-he was a genuine goalscorer at Preston </p>

    I personally think to be the player you mean you have to be quick. I dont think he's quick enough for that role. The Sheringham role is what I think macken is best at, he simply needs to have a player alongside him that can read him, that can make that timed run.

    Only my opinion, mind.

    true -he is 6 years older-trouble is KO is just so unaware of what's going on around him-he rarely anticipates a pass

    No he did not make a good run

    instead of heading straight towards the goal he veered to his right , that was the only way he could have hit the side netting. He always goes away to the right, same against Chelsea!
