As suspected the majority of this board have gone off down a predictable route. We need goals, Lita has been scoring for the RESERVES, so why is he out on loan?
Well if I can put a possible theory forward.
Firstly the truth is we haven't created chances to score goals. Doyle has been playing on the right midfield and Kitson seems to be out wide more than Hunt FFS!!! How many clear chances have we created in the last 10 games? How many times has Doyle been running through on the last defender? How many decent crosses have been swung in aimed at Kitson? The simple answer is NOT enough. If we had had Torres up front in those games he also would have lacked any chances. So the there is more to the view that Kitson and Doyle can't score for toffee. They, as any stiker does, need quality service. This is where we hope Matejovsky, Kebe etc can now start to provide.
Lita has scored for the RESERVES and in the last few first team matches he has played TBF he has not done much. He gave away a freekick against Bolton for the first goal because of his attitude. At this stage of the season any player who is frustrated MUST be able to channel it, into their game. I don't think Lita can be trusted, at this moment to do this.
I would rather have Doyle, Kits and Long. All hard working, all with a good attitude and all WILL score if given the right service.
I am more interested in Convey getting back than Lita, as he has been impressive in the lats 2 ressie games. Much more so than Lita.
And the last point, is that yes it is for a month and we have big games left this season so he wll miss 4 of them but if he finds his scoring touch in FIRST Team action and proves his attitude he will be back and in line for the game at Newcastle, if we need him.
