I hadn't realised that Assambalonga was so short, until he squared up to Matty Taylor on Saturday and I realised they were pretty much the same height. I'd always thought of him as a tall geezer, but he can't be more than 5'9. Completely out-muscled Hunt though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
