i believe he can
getting a bit of stick for not being able to cross or only scoring meaningless goals when we are 3nil up
well as a club that have won the league on goal difference i would say there is no such thing as a meaningless goal and to add to his goal at portsmouth in 08/09 we can now add the goal scored home to bolton this season when we were 3-1 up.
his stunning hat trick v sheff utd in the cc happened at 2-0 up 08/09.
he put us in front v burnley in the fa cup[h] in the same season after taking a pass from arshavin,nutmegging the defender and chipping the keeper.
his goal in the cc v west brom last season following up randalls 20 yard chip was the 2nd to put the game to bed having improved us when he came on
as for crosses? it was his after an exchange with eduardo that lead to velas cross for eddy to score on his emotional return v cardiff for our opener in the fa cup 08/09 and last season it was his accurate cross at west ham for eduardo to score the winner.
