On paper. But we play on grass
Absolute bollocks he's played at plenty of clubs with decent strikers it hasn't changed a thing. He's 31 for christ sake he's spent his entire career being slow and lazy woefully inconsistent I just cannot understand why any thinks anything is going to change here and now when absolutely no inclination has been shown that he might even want to do that.

This season it would have read 13 appearances and 3 or 4 assists if we had strikers with some anticipation or ambition. I agree that his last few appearances haven't been great, though.

Absolute fancy dan with no end product. Doesn't defend at all.
I would have him on the bench though, a player to bring on in the last 20 minutes if you are struggling to break a side down. I'd imagine that's what he was signed to do as well.
Anyone claiming he should start needs to watch the game a bit more carefully.

Is that on FIFA 15 ?....only seen him create 1 chance when he went mental when the forwards were not in the box to tap it in.
Would not be in my squad or club...

Equaliser against Reading? He's had precious few chances and has on most occasions looked a threat. Agreed there is a problem of fitness but how many in our squad would I boot out before reaching him

Up the Albion!
I must say that all the times I've seen him play, (I came away mid November) I just couldn't see what the fuss was about. I think the NSK or whoever they are seemed so desperate for a new cult hero that he seemed to fit the bill......except he's just quite a poor very unfit excuse for a footballer.

Same as Kemy. Not fit enough for pro football. Incidentally, best laugh of the week was seeing a photo in The Argus of Kemy at - the opening of an all you can eat restaurant

I don't think anyone who initially sang the McCourt chant which began the desire to see him play ever took it particularly seriously. I always thought that it was just a joke, maybe I was wrong. Though based on what we have seen of him, I really hope it was a joke...
