I predict that this will run and run to about 50 pages, and it will alternate. One week it'll be 'we knew he'd come good, pace is the best thing you can have in this division, he's raw but he's a good player', next week 'we knew he was shit, pace is no good without skill, he's just raw'. The second one will probably be after a) an away game or b) against a team with a left-back.

Can't we save time by just cutting and pasting an Andy Hughes thread?

Also, my posts will alternate between superlatives and "Get James Henry in the side ASAP." In the second instance I will describe the pros of Henry as usual. This will usually happen a) after a reserve match or b) any time I see James Henry play.

i think you represent the views of most reading fans towards kebe perfectly
i personally like kebe for his comedy value. he gives the fans a good laugh as they wait for him to trip himself up again or somehow get round a defender without seeming to know what the hell he is doing

You're mistaking Kébé for Savage. I have yet to see Kébé trip himself up. Beat defenders, yes. I've seen that, but it always looks intentional to me.

if you honestly believe that kebe has the ability and self awareness to take it round defenders then i am not going to try and change your mind
also you would have to be blind to get kebe and savage mixed up

Kebe can go on good runs, but he's no where near Little's level and never will be. Oster was just as competent a dribbler as Jimmy, yet he got more stick. I think it's because Jimmy's taller.

(I have nothing against either player BTW, unless you count not being as good as Little...)

not sure many people would argue that little is better than kebe
kebe does have more pace than little - although a three legged cat could get around faster than glen

I have just seen his chance at Ipswich. It's not like he missed,it was just well saved.

I'm not going to continue with you beyond this. You are clearly not worth the debate. How anyone can say he will NEVER be as good as Little is beyond me. He not a million miles away now and still young. Little wasn't always as good as he was playing for us.

That is all.

This is the problem, isn't it. He does waltz it round defenders and midfielders...some of the time. The other times he loses it and just looks silly for trying. When he does manage it though, he looks very special indeed.
