He continues to deceive doesn't he...? He had a good start when he first came here , and some would argue that he was a major factor in keeping us up last season, but then this season his form has flopped. I've watched the guy with great interest and I think he's got what it takes, but I'm not sure if he wants to share it with us on a regular basis if you get my drift.He seems to lack the motivation and hunger , and after his spat with Tony over Xmas, it is now difficult to see where his future lies.?Personally, I'd like to see him stay ay Stoke as he could quite easily fall into a role not too dissimilar to Phillips at Birmingham (an ageing super sub) although to be fair, Phillips seems to have the edge in terms of the hunger and eagerness to fulfill the role. Beattie likes the limelight but not the hardwork ....The Lambo ,but not the laps around the track... Am I being fair or have I been led astray by the gossip and rumours..? ???

He's been the same at every club he's ever been at.

Yeah if you look at his history, he will join a club, bang in a few then fuck off to a different club. He is good enough for any club in the division for a few months. Travelled to the game with some Man City fans before our cup game and they said theyd love to have him for a few months because he will get 8 or 9 goals in that time. But then hes no good after a while, cant be arsed etc.
Hes our only natural goalscorer. Shame he was an idiot.

I'm not too pleased with him this season either BUT calling him an idiot is harsh IMHO.

The Evervton fans I know were not very impressed with him both on and off the pitch , in most instances his general attitude was mentioned. I suppose when you get to a certain level of wages it can become difficult for some players to maintain the hunger and desire. I suppose the counter argument is Ashley Cole, a man who no one could accuse of losing his passion or desire .....but not quite in the same context eh..? ;D

Don't be surprised if TP isn't using his Freeze 'em out/Ease 'em back technique. Treat them mean and keep them keen. It seems to work well with Big Dave.

I don't think it's possible to keep anyone mean and keen on guaranteed wages of 25,000 a week...
I be tempted to do a fortnight , and then retire.!

He was top drawer at Southampton though, after that he turned into a bit of a knob again.

At least he knows where the bloody net is He hasn't really shown that in his numerous garbage performances this season though. He knows where the net is, but can't be remotely fucked to get anywhere near it.

Disagree? Even Sidibe must admit that Sidibe's wank surely?

Beattie always plays as if he,s trying to get another club!! Starts really well,gets goals, gets headlines, makes people look at him. Then goes off the boil, Shows total lack of intrest, causes disruption, gets dropped !! Suddenly,he,s out of favour but people remember what he did at the start and hey presto , he gets a new club and another signing on fee!!!

To be fair to BT, he suffered a bad knee injury at Brum in August and has not looked fit since. Is the knee op remedying this injury?
Similarly, Tuncay has looked unfit since damaging his hamstring against Fulham.
And Mama hurt his knee, but we kept playing him until it went completely.
Hope we are doing better for Ethers.
