    He's had his knockers this season. Me included, he came back overweight and didnt really look the same player (apart from the Southampton game IMO).

    Im sat watchin a re-run of the OF game last year, the 2-1 game.
    His touch is awful lol. But he is bustling about being a pest and gettin involved in the play. He knows how to use his body to draw free-kicks from bigger defenders. In that sense, he is a very clever player.

    He's a moany wee * but he never gives defenders a moments peace and winds them right up. That and his goals make him well worth the £700,000.

    I cant wait to get that player back from injury.

    Agreed with everything you've said really, his first touch is woeful and could be doing with being improved but he's a goalscorer and he'll always score goals!

    Added bonus is he gives you the work rate as well which more conventional strikers don't tend to.

    I was going insane for a couple of weeks, I thought I was the only one that had faith in the wee fella. All this critisicm and being sidelined will make him come back stronger.

    get off his back, well actually maybe he needs a few on his back to get that weight off! He'll be back fitter and scoring more than ever, a natural scorer! Lets get behind the boys not put them down all the time cause sometimes thats what feels like happen on this site

    I didnt think i was gettin on his back at all. The reason i posted was to do quite the opposite in fact, get behind him. I thought that was obvious?

    Lets get behind the wee man! aye i have knocked him for his wieght, but only because i love the wee guy! i want him to be back in shape, he was our best striker last season, and he does have alot in common with BBJ Hartson! the guy is a natural goalscorer and uses his body well.

    lets hope he gets rest, looses a few pounds and returns and scores a hatrick!

    Hail Hail!
