Morientes' partnership with Crouc his a huge reason behind our unbeaten run (I refuse to acknowledge the United game ever happened. Same with the Chelsea game). The pair of them together just destroyed defenses and allowed our midfielders to get in and score the goals. Lets remember, Morientes beat Middlesborough with his goals, Newcastle's defense absolutely couldn't deal with his close control and lay offs, Wigan were much the same. Before the Merseyside Derby, Morientes was looking every inch the classy composed striker I knew we'd bought, and the partnership with Crouch was not one of rampant pace, or goals from no where, it was one built upon guile, speed of thought and technique, and we reaped the benefits of it. Morientes is an absolute class act, and I'm still made up that we bought him. Crouch, Morientes and Fowler I think has the potential to be absolutely devestating. I don't care who scores our goals, as long as they go in, and Morientes brings an extra dimension to our front line that we have sorely lacked in recent years. He is a wonderful link between out midfield and strikers, and I don't know of many other players we could have who are capapble of just opening up play on the edge of the box in 3 touches. Morientes can, and does do that.
