Good to see him back in training.

 

We all have the right to be sceptical about his injury record, and I think we're going to continue to see him pick up this and that throughout the season. Him coming back into the side gives us a dimension that we don't have with any of our other players. They try to use Smith to hold the ball up (to both our detriment and Smith's) but everytime a long ball comes through Smith either fouls the opposing defender, doesn't get it, or has a shocking touch. Viduka is one of the best players in the league at holding the ball up, and has great touch to boot. i think when he's available we'll see more goals than when he isn't - both Owen and Martins have both explicitly stated that they love to play alongside him.

I agree with this.

 

We look a side transformed when Viduka plays. If he could keep fit, his influence on the side would be massive. Big if, though.

Well yeah, Id happily have a fit Viduka in our side. Keeping him fit seems to be the hard bit. I've said for a while that before he came, I didnt realise just how strong he was and good at holding up the ball.
