I'm not as worried about Rom's first touch as some on here - it's a difficult skill to master when you're that big, and even this season there have been a few games where his touch and link up play has been excellent, so we know he has the ability in him somewhere.
For me, the major issue is his heading. He seems to always miss them by miles, having jumped about 5 seconds too early. And the thing is, he doesn't need to make a perfectly cushioned header onto the feet of our no 10 in order to be effective - on those few occasions where he has got something on the ball, even if it doesn't go straight to our player, it disrupts their defence and midfield enough for us to have a decent chance of getting possession in a dangerous area.
But instead, after the defence fannies about for a bit and the ball goes back to Howard, he launches it long, Lukaku misses the ball entirely, they easily control it and get the opportunity to launch another attack. Very frustrating.
