Yeah his general play was fine, but his finishing was basically abysmal, like some kind of mental block. When you consider how he finished that header in the Supercoppa it is surprising.

He was playing better than most people say, IMO. His first touch, movement and build up was good.


Only problem is there is a guy who is better than him, and that's Morata. But it doesn't take Mandzukic qualities away. It just means he should be a rotation player, not a starter.
Noup, it was not the only problem...read below

This.

I think he was going to be our answer to llorente..but is equally wasteful. Better gameplay but wasteful as hell for a pocaher.

In fact, llorente on his best days had a very decent gameplay...so he is right now ,like a minor improvement over fernando tbh

The story of our "poachers" ever since Trez left. The same has happened with Iaquinta, Amauri, Bendtner, Matri, Llorente...am I forgetting someone?

Amauri was more than a poacher, but he was crap whatever he was for us.

I don't think he was ever a great finisher
True, he plugs away to get his goals. But if he always finished like that during his career he'd be playing for NK Zadar right now.

Morata and Mandzukic is different type.
But i think they are in same level.
In future, morata will be better and more complete player.

I find it hard to believe that Mandzu's finishing is often abysmal.

2004–2005 Marsonia 23 (14)
2005–2007 NK Zagreb 51 (14)
2007–2010 Dinamo Zagreb 81 (42)
2010–2012 VfL Wolfsburg 56 (20)
2012–2014 Bayern Munich 54 (33)
2014–2015 Atlético Madrid 28 (12)

Dude's statistics are insane.
