I've started to watch him very carefully. He has a tremendous talent for taking people on and clearly relishes the task and at times the ball seems glued to his boot. I know he has scored a few you and created a lot of havoc with defences and in that respect he is priceless. However he has a propensity to do all the hard work and then shoot wide. I know he will score a few more goals over the season doing what he does best. But what I would really want to see him doing more is lifting his head up and knowing when the better option is passing to a player he has created space for by having a mob of defenders mocking him. There was one example yesterday where he weaved his way to the centre of the box and Jerry was stood in the d in plenty of space to have a good shot at the goal. Now I would suggest that jerry is by far the better striker than Josh so why did he not just lay it off. I think there's been numerous examples of where I think we would have stood a far better chance of scoring had Josh not being quite so greedy. I don't mean every time because you wouldn't want to knock that spirit out of Josh but what NC must tell him is that he is allowed to occasionally pass the ball to a teammate who is in a better place to score.
