West Stand ManbrendywendySnowball Jimmy made, not surprisingly, the Championship Team of the Week
so did Marcus Williams!

yet another player written off too early?
Written off by who? The club has sent him out on loan - not yet disposed of him. Usually when they loan a player it is to help him develop, so maybe they haven't written him off quite yet?

The guy is playing with more confidence enjoyment and desire than I have ever seen - he gets the crowd on their feet each time he gets the ball. He is lighting up every game he plays
And apparently this is not enough
Who said it wasn't enough?
If you read what I've posted I've said he had a good game but that some of his play showed why we've been able hold onto him despite him looking a class act at times.
I wonder how much some of you can actually read whilst maintaining a sense of perspective at times. Highlighting a passage of play where he didn't get everything right isn't being critical or pulling apart his performance, it's just pointing out a flaw/mistake which is why he's at this level.
It's typical HNAism. When we've won anything that isn't gushing praise is evil negativity.
intelligent commentary with some perspective isn't allowed.
Kebe had a superb game, but as you say, utterly fluffed two shots at least and put in a relatively weak cross.Leicester's indifference in tracking back may have helped Hunt be able to burst onto that ball unopposed and put it away. The ball was meant for Long and didn't have a hope of reaching him without a defender error. The speed of the break, plus Long's proximity meant the defender fluffed his clearance to Hunt, so the ball was good enough, but it wasn't good.
Anyone thinking that is an argument that Kebe didn't play extremely well is a bit weird in the head.
And there wouldn't be a lot of point in HNA if all anyone ever did when we won was gush enthusiastically about how brilliant we were.

Maguire This board never fails to make me roll my eyes and smash my head into my desk.
Why on earth are we arguing about or even suggesting that Jimmy Kebe was something other than superb? He's just totally unplayable on days like that, yet apparently we're finding something to moan about after he's sprinted the length of the pitch, rinsed a couple of players and crossed for a goal?
You bunch of utter helmets.

brendywendy pointing these things out in balanced fashion is fine.
just pointing out the two or three negative bits of his game is not allowed, and is punishable by death.

leicsRoyal Quote from Dean Kiely on Late Kick off East Midlands version.
' on paper you would take Leicesters team above Reading every time, but football isn't played on paper. This isn't some fantasy football that you play on the computer. It's what happens Monday to Friday that can affect Saturday and Reading seem to have that just right! '
