brendywendy based on what?!

ffs the boys done nowt except one game in the cup
and kebe really wasnt the problem yesterday-thought he was one of our better players, did alot of work in both halves, and but for cheating preston and a crap ref would have won it for us


Henry came on and was instrumental in winning us the Norwich game as well want he?

He also played pretty well against Birmingham. He had a quiet performance in the first game he replaced Kebe during his suspension

Henry offers us a bit of variation on the right and Kebe has been found wanting recently after his flurry of good form earlier in the season

Tabb may be the one to come in for him, but something has to change as our productive wing play has dried up

Snowball Lita, a STRIKER, on for the whole 90 minutes, gets one legal shot on target
but hits it straight at the keeper. He has another shot (offside) and this is also
straight at the keeper. He has a soft header straight at the keeper.

Two legal shots on target in 90 minutes.

His job is to score goals. I don't remember him setting up any chances for others.


KEBE, a winger, NOT there to score goals has one shot saved very well, then
he creates a chance by hassling the keeper, beats the keeper, has the ball
come off the inside of the post and hand-balled by a Preston player

Two legal shots on target in 71 minutes.

On top of this Kebe got to the by-line twice and crossed low particularly well
and it was just our bad luck nobody got on the end of the low cross. He also
had one deeper cross which found a Reading head in the first half.

But, from that Lita is a near-God and Kebe is crap. Idiots.


And Lita's strike partner on the day? If you want to use their inability to score, due to a diabolical lack of service from their team mates, then Doyle was probably an even bigger failure yesterday (and that's not meant to be having a go at Doyle).

Incidentally Lita's shot was not hit at the keeper - the keeper had to dive to produce a good save. Presumably you had gone for a drink/pee when Lita did set up a couple of chances for his team mates.

Kebe has some ability but at the moment he is turning into a very inconsistent one trick pony and the opposition have worked out his one trick!

Kebe's finishing is one the worst i've seen from a pro footballer, I don't even leave my seat when he attempts to shoot in the box.
I still remember him blasting one at a keeper from no more than 4 years out earlier in the season where it was harder to miss than score, LOL at the idea of him playing up front.

Lita however, won several flick ons, struck a great shot and generally did a whole lot more than doyle did all game. Lita put the most ground in on the pitch in terms of work rate IMO.

Kebe tries too many tricks for my liking of which it looks like he hasn't practiced enough on.

Keep it simple.

EG: He was down by the corner flag with the ball facing a player, and he tried some little(excuse the pun) trick which ended with him just passing to the defender 3 foot away from him. :roll:

He is no Glen Little, not by a country mile.

Personally replacing Kebe with Henry (who's also scored more goals this season) is the first change I'd make for Bristol City, I'd put him on the bench though.

if it means coppell will give matejovski a go, id accept dropping kebe for the harder working henry.
personally though id stick with kebe-he still provided a couple of dangerous crosses, and should have scored but for an opponents arm, if the problem is our wings ill wager its more on the other side of the pitch

I still think Kebe looks fantastically dangerous without really delivering anywhere near what he should.

Go to a circus if you want to watch him perform, he's a good act.
I want a right winger than can deliver some good crosses, hold the ball up and provide us with a RELIABLE outlet, chris eagles please.
Kebe is a 1 in 4 game man, not consistent enough for a championship side, god forbid we play him in the prem.
True to form he was good against wolves and has been crap ever since and crap the few games before. Maybe bristol city might see him turn up?

He was pretty crap to be fair. Very few of them had any sort of decent game.

I think his general habit of giving the ball back to the opposition by twisting and turning before the ball bounced off his shin to the defender meant he wasn't having the best of games.

He did get a couple of decent balls into the box though, so it wasn't all bad.

He made that one good tackle whilst tracking back and covering for Rosenoir too, but I have a feeling it was him that gave the ball away to set up the breakaway in the first place so it's a bit of balancing out there.

Generally I don't think he had a good game though.
