That was also the last time he was used effectively by any of our managers. It's clear that he wasn't - and isn't - a striker. But as an attacking centre midfielder bursting into the box and getting on the end of crosses, he was brilliant. One of those players with a natural knack of being in the right place at the right time. Unfortunately he spent the next two years with his back to goal doing nobody any favors.
I'll also venture that he was the most instinctive finisher we've had here since Chopra.
