To me the media have been getting it entirely wrong about Beckford. They have all been saying "oh it's the pressure of the Prem, he'd have buried that at Leeds". Not true at all.
I liked Beckford, but at Leeds he has has always needed 5 chances to score a goal. The thing was that his pace and movement meant he got an awful lot of chances in League 1 so you forgave his errent finishing as he still bagged a hatful. If you miss 5 chances at a struggling Prem team, you may not get on the pitch to have many more. When he scored the other week I said to my Everton mate "good stuff, but be warned he'll miss his next 5 chances". Sure enough... _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman-new.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] MARCHING ON TOGETHER
