He covers a lot of ground, has a good touch and defends well from the front. I don't see anything that makes him not RDZ's type of centre-forward. For example, he has better attributes that Everton's non-scoring international beanpole.
In the last 3 months he has regularly come deep to link up...
Too young to have seen Peter Ward? He didn't miss many, even on piles of mud and sand. Similar to Jimmy Greaves, passed the ball into the net most of the time. I like the way Ferguson does that too. Places it in the corners.
