How good is Harris

[Taffster]

WOL have him rated 9 today. Seriously? Higher than Robinson and the same as Niels Nkounkou & Andy Rinomhota. Mad.

He rarely seems to lose the ball. Has a great first touch, no matter which lart of his body he uses, and then distributes a good ball from it.
He’s not an out and out goal scoring striker. To me he’s more of a Sheringham type player, great in the hole behind a front man, works well with just about any parter and cleverly drifts across the pitch to use wide channels.
I like him a lot. But you cannot play jim up top on his own.
He came on for Wales late in our Qualifying campaign. Forget which game. But he stretched the opposition and set up a vital goal, looking quality throughout the cameo spell he had in that match.

Another observation from yesterday was Etete did not have the same impact. The ball did not stick to Etete in the same way when it was fired up to or into him as it did with Harris.

Good post. Gives me something to think about and see things differently. I like that.
