20 goal striker 07:30 - Dec 4 with 1261 views | Gloucs_R | Hope I'm not jinxing the lad but Charlie is well on the way to becoming our 20 goal striker. Glad he is Coming good after the grief he got for the first few games. Who were the last 5 players to get 20 goals in a season for us? | |

20 goal striker on 08:54 - Dec 4 with 1169 views | hoops_legend | How many has he got now? Its only a matter of time before the official site run a competition giving away his boots like they did with agyemand and countless others and he won't be able to score for toffee!! | | | |
20 goal striker on 09:02 - Dec 4 with 1155 views | Charlie1 | It's his all round play as well. Last nights goal differed from others so he's got a lot in his locker. Don't under estimate the defensive work. Some cracking headed clearances last night. | |

This, he was also the last man chasing back on a few occasions blocking crosses, his work rate is as good as anybody I have seen up front for us and he is physical without his strength negating his mobility which is pretty good overall. As I said on the other post I was one of the people unsure about him after he was missing opportunities but the range of goals and his overall work rate recently have really impressed me. | |

20 goal striker on 09:49 - Dec 4 with 1048 views | Antti_Heinola | Very good signing. Easily our best of the close season. He will do his ACL next game after this thread though, so to guard against that, I think he's been extremely lucky and is not that good at all and his knees are shot and he mishit that goal last night. | |

Agree about the defensive work, somewhere around the 80th minute he popped up in the right back position to block a cross, incredible workrate. | | | |

19. Austin would have got more had he had more than 1 or 2 shots a game to work with. | |

His work rate is indeed mad. Might be something to do with him getting to this level fairly late on. He knows whats its like to have to really work for a living instead of getting paid for doing something he loves. Remember that other late comer Ian Wright? He didnt mind putting a shift in either.. Well done Charlie. Top lad. | |

20 goal striker on 12:56 - Dec 4 with 741 views | smegma | Not only is Austin our top scorer this season hes also our top scorer in the whole squad !! Quite lamentable when you think about it but well done to Charlie all the same. Austin 19 starts + 1 sub = 10 goals. Ephraim 76 starts +41 sub= 8 goals. Zamora 36 starts +8 sub = 7 goals. We may have a prize asset on our hands. | | | |

How did Ephraim get in there?He's a winger. | |

20 goal striker on 13:02 - Dec 4 with 711 views | WeaverQPR | Definetly feel we need to add another forward in Jan, to help take the pressure off Austin or indeed if he gets injured. I can see Chevanton being released and maybe AJ moved on, although if Palace don't want AJ i doubt anyone else will with his wages and injury record. | |

That is lamentable.... I think even if all our loan players were back the only one that would be ahead of him is Taarabt. | |

What's wrong with having shot knees? | |

Firstly he'll piss 20 goals plus this season. Secondly I posted this last night on Charlie's thread when I got home *Watch Charlie Austin and the work he puts into a game, and I'm talking about at the back too. * I'm no football expert but I know for a fact that even when CA isn't up front trying to score he's working his nuts off for the team, I've noticed him countless times defending in our penalty area since he joined us. He's a diamond and after the last two seasons of me watching lazy cnts wearing Rangers shirts pulling good money God bless him or any other Rangers player who puts the effort in. | |

20 goal striker on 19:07 - Dec 4 with 512 views | BlackCrowe | He's everything I want to see in a player, guts, honesty, work rate and ability. Long may he stay with us....the best signing we've made for years and the first genuinely lethal striker we've had since Furlong. | |
