we negotiated the deal for cisse when silly money was being thrown around for average players. he was scoring goals for fun in france (28 in his last season i think) and at the time because of arsenals dominance and the gallic influence in their side everything french was being held up as brilliant.
being fair to cisse he has real pace and a terrific shot but his ball control in traffic is poor and to me he`s not the type of goalscorer that gets the tap ins that are the bread and butter of any striker worth their salt. when he plays with crouch his movement is not that of a predator always looking to get in behind.
his body language isnt the best either.
i`d try and convert him to a right sided attacking midfielder, when he has played there he has given the opposition plenty to think about using his pace to good effect and like ray kennedy his striking instincts mean he will chip in with a few goals too.
