Kez Staying Positive

Last updated : 22 October 2004 By Rich Godden
Kezman, a £5 million signing from PSV this summer, was in electrifying form during pre season. The Serbia & Montenegro hitman scored some excellent goals on our US tour, and generally looked to be our best striker at the time.

But since then, he has looked lost. Kezman said "I am still very confident because I am the type of person who is strong mentally. I will just keep fighting for the first goal and then I will be okay.

"It is just a period of settling. I am new in the Premiership.

"It is a different type of football with new team-mates, a new public and all things new so you feel pressure.

"In Holland I had almost the same problem in the first few matches when I didn't score and then after the first goal all the pressure was gone."

"I expect goals, of course, and I hope on Saturday against Blackburn will be the first goal of Kezman."

We hope so too!
