exactly. same reason why i liked sonko and bikey

[howser]

Yeah I'll go with that as well, the lad has got so much ability maybe its the arm round the shoulder touch that he needs more of.

[Maguire]

He needs a boot up his arse and also to be more direct. His strenth is his pace which is how he should stretch people - turn and run at them, shit them up.

Pretty sure he read this.

Run, Jimmy, run!!!

I'm 100% sure you ain't too far from the truth.

I love the bloke because of the flashes of genius and knowing he's going to come good. Same reason I loved Seol.

I think we should have a Jimmy Day at the mad stad.

Reading the "Back from the Game" thread, reminded me of a theory I had about Kebe last year when he went through one of his good spells in October/November: that he was influenced by having a good winger on the other wing (Hunt playing well at the time). I noticed that he was upping the physical side of his game, including, believe it or not, tackling, in imitation of Hunt. If that was true, could it be that the arrival of Macanuff has similarly got to him? Hope so.

Have seen his goal from last night, that first touch to send him through was exceptional

lol at any clown who thinks he has 1 good game in 50

if he can bring it down from the 1 in 3/5 hes on now, hell be a great player this season

[Hugo Boss]

Kingsley would be better than that piece of sh*t.

would kingley have scored at Preston tonight you prick?

He'd have had a hat-trick.

Kebe will be back to his usual sh*t on Saturday i.e. looking half-a*sed, running the ball into touch and pretending to tackle.

I expect he probably will. But that'll probably be because his confidence gets shot to pieces at home. Hardly suprising. There's booing when his names read out and half the ground simply cannot wait for him to make a mistake so they can strart shouting abuse at him. Like the moron who sits behind me (who funnily enough couldn't answer me when I asked him who we should play instead!).

I think he's immensely frustrating and can be lazy, but he does show flashes of brilliance where he goes past people for fun or puts a great cross in. People expect him to win every header and fly in for every tackle. That's not what wingers are in the team to do! Until we have several better options, lets give him a break and get behind him. We are supposed to SUPPORT Reading, so lets SUPPORT the players.

Come on Jimmy.......prove them all wrong on Saturday!

Hopefully he'll begin to be more consistent which Rodgers stressed the need for him to become.

Back when we were actually good, Kebe tended to perform when he had an inform winger on the opposite flank. Hence why we were so good pre Xmas. Hunt on form, meant Kebe on form, which meant two of the best wingers in the division supply one of the best strikers.

Hunt goes off form, Kebe has to do it all himself so goes off form, means no supply to Doyle who spends all his time plugging away at the channels and suddenly it's no more goals.

SO .... Now we have a quality winger in McAnuff on the other flank, Kebe's performances hopefully pick up again and are back at around 1 good in 2/3 games, rather than 1 good in 5/6 (being generous).

Nonsense, I've never heard his named booed when it is read out, but why not just make things up in order to reinforce your imaginary point? Your assertion that somehow it is the crowds fault every time he shanks a cross into the North Stand under no pressure at all is just plain insulting to all those who pay good money to watch this kind of crud.

Just because the other winger isn't having the game of his life, doesn't mean Kebe should let his standards drop though - he doesn't have to do it all himself, he just needs to put the effort in and produce to the best he can.

You might not of heard it from where you sit, but i will back The Royal We up on that. I sit in Y20 and have heard people booing Kebe when his name has been read out.

Kebe isn't crap at all, he is just more frustrating than crap because we all know what he can do, it's just a case of him producing week in week out on a regular basis.

Don't disagree, just something I've noticed.

He's not got the best brain, he's much better when he relaxes and doesn't try so hard. Or think.

Completely agreed, I sit in Y24 and heard Kebe's name being booed when read out.

Hes a professional footballer so it probably shouldn't affect him but the boo boys at home don't help. I don't think its a coincidence that in his last few away starts including the back end of last season he played really well. You can tell Kebe needs an arm round the shoulder, for e.g when he scored against Plymouth last season he looked almost apologetic (one of the most peculiar celebrations I've ever seen).

At home games I think that some people almost want him to mess up. So many people around me blamed him for the goal on Sat (maybe im wrong), but considering that every player was behind the ball when kebe cleared it, its wasn't Kebes fault probably Fed or O'Dea.
