He has, but nothing near what a striker is supposed to be receiving. I don't know why you are amazed by this. Have you forgotten how bad we were last year?
Actually, yes, that's exactly what everyone is saying. Go back a page and you'll see how everyone thinks it's impossible. Sure I don't think it's very likely, but I certainly believe it may very well happen. I don't why people are so hung up on the fact that he hasn't scored in so long. We had one of our worst seasons ever last year. The entire team was terribly disappointing. We've barely started the season and everyone is calling this guy 'finished'.
I'd just like him to play 4 or 5 games in a row, get some decent service. And if he does nothing, I'd join the bandwagon. But all this talk right now is uncalled for. Name anyone other than Chiellini and Diego who had good seasons last year. Did you expect Amauri to finish as top scorer with last year's team?
They all play for the same team, yet Amauri is the one who most of the crosses are aimed for. And I believe he has more playing time than Iaq. With his potential he shouldn't have the least goals on the team.
What about the 2 hearders he had on straight on goal with one going wide the other right at the goalie? Was that not service or am I just confused as to what service really is? It doesn't get much better than that for many strikers and many strikers deal with much worse service and still score goals but lets just keep making excuses for Amauri.
Give him time.
He needs better service.
Needs wingers.
Needs more crosses.
He isn't a fox in the box.
He isn't an out and out striker.
He has a strong physical presence that draws defenders away from our other players.
He is good at chesting.
He is good at heading.
He works hard.
He is always trying.
He has bad players around him.
He has coaches that play him out of position.
He has coaches that are bad tactically.
He is getting double marked.
He has low confidence.
He isn't fit.
He just came back from injury.
He did well at Palermo.
He was a late bloomer.
He had two goals against Shamrock Rovers.
He did well in preseason friendlies.
He scored 3 times in a 5 v 5 match on a rugby field with no goalies.
So many new players to gel with this season.
Nicholas is his biggest fanboy.
1 goal every 15 games to shut Cameron up.
Cameron is a broken record but his droughts for the last 2 seasons aren't.
He showed promise his first season, lets give him more time.
He needs more time.
He needs more time.
He needs more time.
Seriously though, lets give him more time.

I'm even more tired. I think this might just be my last post.
No, it's not reasonable. But none of our attackers did well last year. We were really bad. Do I have to say it again? We were a shit team. It would have been a miracle for any striker to get anything going with the way we were playing last year.
Yeah, because he hasn't been able to score TWO goals like Alex and Quag. You're right. I agree.
