Viduka Nowhere Near His Best!

Allardyce: "He's a 6ft 4in centre-forward who has got a strike-rate of one goal every two and a half games. He is obviously one of the best in the Premier League.

"We don't play enough to him with the right quality balls just yet, but that's because we are all new together.

"When we do, we will see the benefit of that, not just his hold-up play, but his goalscoring ability.

"The more that gets used, the better we will become because the old saying is if your two strikers play well, then the team plays well, and that will never, ever change.

"Having Mark Viduka on goalscoring form is crucial for our success."
