I thought he looked a bit tired and slower today. Not as sharp and fast as he was before. But we have a week until next game. He should be well-rested by then.

Gotta say it's a great feeling not to feel surprised when our striker scores in every game.

Tbf, he was constantly passed from one defender to another and I think he'll have better games against more open sides, where teams will try to sht down Hazard/Andre or Oscar.

The more I watch him play the more he impresses. He scores goals but also knows how to link up and bring in teammates.

This guy is perfect for us. A real striker that we have missed for too long.

He score 30+ this season..

When was the last time we had a centre forward score in his first two games? Off the top of my head, Deco (Portsmouth H, Wigan A) and Malouda (Utd, community shield, Birmingham H) managed it, but the last centre forward would be Adrian Mutu, who scored in his first 3 games running (Leicester, Blackburn, Spurs). We've had a hell of a lot of centre forwards since then.

We've been talking about this guy and fapping about him (please someone teaches me some slang, fapping sounds so crude, but I don't know another word), but it's understandable when we haven't had a striker of this caliber in so long.

But I wanted to dissect a bit of his instinctual and superb movement and goal awareness.

Look how just after Iva cuts he two defenders (and how priceless is it that he leaves the two of them sitting on their arses? This reloaded Iva is mouthwatering) everyone keeps running forward. André - who's also a master on positioning and movement - also stops, but he's a couple of seconds later in his decision. That's why Iva can find Diego unmarked two meters away from the 6-yard (I suppose?) box. That's the awareness and the instinct of a goal scorer making him do just the right thing, at the right time and be in the best possible position to score.

It's not only about being a poacher, but being smart and instinctive about how to score a goal. He's really been amazing to us.
