I'll take the missed chances as long as he finds himself in many chances. Just like I was supporting Iaquinta too. Ideally we'd have a great striker who will have a great chance/goals ratio, but after Amauri everything is improvement and in this particular season when we manage to put the ball in the box much more often than last year, we desperately need someone who will follow the ball movement and find himself in chances. We aren't in position to choose much in the next 14 rounds. I only want someone to make connection with the balls sent in opponent's box, unlike that guy we shipped out in Parma.
Gretzky's quote that you miss 100% of the shots you don't take is valid in this case too. Better score 1 and miss 2 than not score at all and not miss a chance either.

I obviously hope for improvement in Matri's finishing, though.
Exactly my thoughts. He and Iaquinta are very similar. Very good positioning both have, but this guy has better finishing and Iaquinta can assist and keep the ball better than him, I am excited to see how both will play together, hard to predict if they can complete each others. But Matri next to Quagliarella will be the bomb.

The haters will focus on the missed chances all the time, just like Iaquinta's case :)

Bianconero81, no respect for you man. You give me bad rep because I disagree with what you say about Matri. (Which I am right)

What a joke you are...

The thing I like most about Matri is his positioning he seems to be in the right place at the right time and has a pretty good shot, 2 very well taken volleys today..

Imagine him and Quag upfront
