    He should try less of the Hollywood passes and focus a bit more on keeping possession.

    We have enough players who play keep ball and always make sideways passes ie Ledley, Brown and Kayal - we need someone like Kris who trys something in the final third, especially with an intelligent forward like Hooper who makes good runs.

    I think he's joking. At least I hope he is.

    I'm not saying he should always pass the ball sideways. I just think he tries too many passes of the 30-40 yard variety. Sometimes it's better to keep possession than give the ball away.

    Didn't he cost a few hundred grand? Thought it was about 400-500k?

    On his game he's a great player plenty of flair and imagination when he's not he can be a bit greedy and becomes a bit of a passenger.He's well suited to the away legs in Europe sitting in behind a loan striker.

    Looked a threat at times today with 3 chances of note. The save from the Sammy flick on, the shot that looked like it was heading for the top corner that got deflected and the goal. He wasn't even near his best today but with 2 goals in 2 SPL games, do you reckon he will be on the scoresheet as consistently as he was when he first joined?

    Mark of a great player, even when not at his best, he was still the biggest threat.

    Was unlucky not to get more goals today.

    That's him doubling his last season's goal tally already, not bad.

    Despite his goal he was really poor today.

    2 league games, 2 league goals. What more can you ask from an attacking player? He may never recover the form he had when he first signed at the beginning of last year, but there's no doubt he's still an integral part of the current squad.

    He was the only player who looked like scoring.

    He's always a threat though, because of his shooting ability.
