Bikey for me too.
He appears to be holding so much in reserve and only ever sprints at a stroll (contradiction in terms I know).
`makes you wonder how fast and agressive he could be if riled.

J'taime



For services to headbutting, headed goals, pushing paramedics and for looking like he should be in Aswad.

Bikey for me too. Just the type of player I have always liked, capable of moments of sheer brilliance, and others of complete ineptitude. I always like Tony Rougier for the same reasons.

Doyle for effort, goals, good attitude

Noel Hunt for irrepressible spirit and sheer guts

Kebe for sheer exhilaration and some of the best first touches I've ever seen

Bikey for the power and the unpredictability which I kinda like

Shane Long cos my daughter is going to marry him


Kebe edges it

Kebe for skinning players.

Cisse for his goals, and THAT chant

Fedders for stepping up to the plate and his hollywood saves anf that goal. :mrgreen:

N Hunt for his goal celebrations, commitment and desire.

Doobs for his celebration at the Cardiff (H) game.

Cisse, without a doubt.

He's strong, determined, focused and he can play both in a defensive position, or an attacking one. He can push up and support the midfield and drop back to support the defence. Probably the best player we have at the moment.

Aussie Fed!!

What a cool guy, distribution is second to none, and comfortably settled into the first team. Very happy for him.

Doyle - because he scores goals, he can do any job on the pitch (even goalkeeper - he has the shirt apparently), he has the power to get past defenders, links well with the other players and just enjoys being a Royal.

Also, he once admitted to writing down his positioning on his arm and can thus be read like a book.

(I still miss Kitson though)

It's got to be Harper, I am surprised it needs to be asked.

He has it all, he's an agressive tackler, wins every ball he goes for, can dribble round 3 or 4 players then pick out a 40 yard pass to a team mates feet.
He controls the centre of the field, opposition have no option but to try the long ball because there's no way he'll let them come through the middle.
He drives forward at every opportunity, side ways or backwards is just not an option to him.
Oh and he's really good at pointing.

Noel Hunt, plenty of guts, 110% effort and not short of skill either. His attitude is first class, will get on with his job whether he's in the first team or not. Football would be a fair better sport if their were more players like him. These traits also apply to Doyle and Harper.
