It's not even the fact his twenty goals are against poor teams/lucky (Moses is the same), it's just the fact people ignore that he has 60 appearances this season. 60!

Drogba in his last two seasons had 26 goals in 86 appearances. Which is 0.32 goals/game. Torres has 0.33 goals/game exactly this season. Make of it what you will.

because Drogba played shit under AVB and it was clear to everyone. however, Didier had that special power to win important games, when you saw him in the line-up in the cup game you knew he was going to rape someone.

20 useless goals?

Since when has a goal been considered 'useless' in a game of football?

maybe not useless but unimportant. you would expect a 50m striker to do more than score numerous goals in comfortable wins against rubbish teams. the main goal that stands out for me was in the 2-1 win vs arsenal and that was so long ago.

Useless might not be the right word, but if you are up by 3-0 and you score 4-0 in the 87, usually that goal doesnt mean much.

But most importantly, you want goals that are game-changing or really important. Like the goals Didier scored in CL, or always scored on Wembley.

I think and feel the same way as you both about the contribution of Nando's goals. For the sheer favt that a 50 million pound striker should be scoring in big games with big goals and the Arsenal game is one of the only games I can remember him doing it. The open goal miss against United still sticks out a mile in my memoirs of Nando's time here lol. Though they have been of little importance let's at least give him some credit for scoring them and actually helping us get to the Europa final. They might not have all been winners but they can be considered as cousion goals thay let you take your foot of the gas and make substitutions to rest key players in such a busy schedule. Call me an optimist and generous for giving him such credit but I think his 20 or so goals at least deserve as such.
