Respect indeed. He also plays with genuine joy, or appears to. An apparent rarity in today's high-stress footballing environments. |

Nardi aside, he's surely our most consistent pre-season signing. Game in and game out, whoever the opponent, whatever the weather, or the angst surrounding our club he delivers, usually with a smile on his face. Sure, he's "what it says on the packet" type of winger. Take it to the goal line, trick your way past two or three defenders (that's the hard bit) and cross into the box where, ideally, a couple of strikers will be licking their lips. Unfortunately he can't do too much about the last bit at the moment. Maybe when Frey gets back his build up will show more results. |

He's an oddity. When he does something (rarely) it's often impressive. His crossfield passing ability is very good, just (cough) infrequent. I don't think he "hides," as many on here do. He wouldn't have stepped up and nailed the penalty goal he scored if he did. Mainly he's immobile and doesn't seem to know where he's supposed to be at any given moment. And when he does it takes him a leap year to get there. |

I'm probably wrong but wouldn't Morgan do better at LB than Saito? Kiko's all speed and footwork, he's never going to take anyone out. |

Totally with you on lack of pace. I think it's our biggest collective flaw. We're always looking for a player to pass to, instead of passing to where you know he's going to be. We did the latter first half against Hull and came up against an in-form keeper, since then we've gone back into our shell. It's probably a confidence thing. |
