Just curious and keep the thread nice ;D
Was curious that you posted re Rory being sent off v City that 'He should never play for Stoke again'
You also claimed that Kitson would score a bag load of goals in the new look team!!!!!
Obviously you are on heavy drugs- Is Matty's suspension stopping the ginger useless one getting his goal target?
Surely Etherington should never plav for Stoke again by your logic?????
Explain and make up a pathetic excuse re tactics or some other bollox

It's not my fault that you didn't read the thread properly you thick cunter. If you had have read it thoroughly you would have seen that I was joking, being a bit sarcastic and ironic at the same time, but I didn't put a smiley in, so thats probably why you didn't understand. Just go back and read it again and realise you have made a twat out of yourself, unless you are too busy getting blown off by ladyboys that is? Secondly, I never said Kitso would score a hatful, but I did say if you played to his strengths, ie with someone like Etherington putting crosses in for him, he would actually score a few. Unfortunately TP hasn't seen fit in the last few games to even bring him on as sub, so how the fuck can he score? H

Someone who was described as Reading's bestp layer would surely not go from their best player to a "ginger useless one". You sir, are an idiot

Well kits can't score from the f**kin bench can he? If every player was given half an opportunity to play in their rightful positions, we'd get a lot more quality from our squad...is that so difficult?

Thank god James Beattie doesn't have to rely on passes from the wings at a trajectory of 28.453 degrees,and at a constant speed of 12.8 m.p.h to score goals...
He's a striker you see....Good strikers score goals regardless.
Fuller, Beattie, Owen, ......Kitson..erm....Nah..The Computer says nooooooooo.

But remember mumf when Shearer was playing under Gullit. His body language and everything showed how frustrated he was because he wasn't getting goals. First thing Bobby Robson did was make sure crosses went into the box and Shearer couldn't stop scoring. Service is important. Ian Rush wouldn't have been able score so many without Dalglish working with him so well and teaching him and the fact Liverpool spent so much time attacking in them days the service was always there.
Admittedly, the greatest of them all....Gerd Muller...was a bit weird.

He played in the Liverpool match and nearly scored twice....was very unlucky to not come away with a goal. I also think that if he actually played with the new players he'd bag a few.

I haven't seen any evidence to suggest, that Kitson, during his career to date, isn't likely to score goals, if he is played as a striker, in a team that's creating chances.

Personally I have pretty much given up on Kitson, we just don't have time to piss around trying to make it work for him when we have other strike options that don't need any time to adapt or build up their confidence or whatever. Think it was the last time he started a home game (liverpool/man u?) that I notcied he hardly even made runs into the box when it looked likely that a cross was going to come in - his confidence is absolute rock bottom.
Not saying he's a bad player at all, but we just do not have time this season to find the good one in him.

i feel sorry for kitson, hes a box player that thrives on decent service, so to be told hes got play as a link man, and service coming from richard the twat cresswell he was always on a loser.

Unless I'm on crack or something Mumfles, both of Beattie's Stoke City goals have come from new boy and left winger Matthew Etherington, one being a nice chipped through ball from a left/central position and the other being pretty much the dictionary definition of a "pass from the wing".

Anyone who says Kits is a bad player obviously hasnt seen him play too many games. He was played out of position and had no service, with ethers and a fit Liam this would provide the kind of delivery he thrives on and would no doubt score plenty of goals

cant believe there are a few people saying this about this sening off. Think some of its more af a jibe at the Ricci one. Etthers just kicked out at a player who deleiberatly cut across him and altho he should of known better it was a total over reaction by the ref towards a stoke player again

Yes you are on crack. That explains that usless c$nt Kitson missing a gaping goal v Pompey- two open goals v 'Pool? The rest of the time he was mincing around the pitch.
He's on the bench because he's shite. 14 games NO GOALS. .............FACT

Soi, Kitsons commitment has seemed a bit questionable but he isn't getting the starts to get into the game, is he?
Could it be (apart from lack of playing time) that he just doesn't play in our system...you can't deny his prem scoring credentials, so it must be us!

Post by Soi Cowboy on Feb 12, 2009 20:12:06 GMT
He had ONE good season in the Prem, I agree. When he has started he has been utter shite. Statistics don't lie. Mama has 4 goals-Kitson has NONE

Post by stokie25 on Feb 12, 2009 20:17:53 GMT
Mama is an accepted party to the 'hoof to mama' tactic, though...and i agree, he's pulled it off to our advantage. I do hate how Kitsons wanders about in anticipation of a good cross or throw in, but you don't become shit overnight, and this debate about his ability could have been put to bed if he had started with Ethers playing, and 'stop press' Lawrence on the right! There could have been no excuses for his lack of performance, but we're back to square one on the service argument again because of Matty's suspension and Pulis' reluctance to start Lawrence

Kitson has been disapointing but to be fair to him he made his name and was on the verge of the England squad playing as a Striker. A position in which he has not actually played that often for us against Liverpool he was unlucky not to score two goals. I dont understand why we paid 5.5 million and then decide to play him in the mama role, he does not have the strength or pace to do this, maybe he will now get a chance to play as a striker and can show us why we paid 5.5 million for him....

I wasn't that overwhelmed with Kitson signing for the money we paid - if he was that good he would have gone elsewhere. All his talk re not caring re money didn't wash with me. He had ONE good season in the PREM- I admit I wasn't impressed with his attitude turning down an Irish cap when he would have played alongside Doyle and (maybe) both Hunt brothers. He was that arrogant he wanted to play for England!!!!! Be real- he has been poor- easy to blame our system Even Rory has scored twice this season . Can't believe some (ok maybe one or two) are blaming everything else on Kitson's lack of effort/performances/no goals etc.Give him up as a lost cause and bad signing.

i can't give up on him as a total loss, if only on a business level, Soi. We need to justify a price tag for him, if only to result in a smaller loss to the club, otherwise, we're less likely to attract decent signings on the basis that he could walk away blaming THIS club for his downfall. I can't accept that! We have limited options for Pompey now and if he doesn't use this opportunity, if afforded to him...then i'll accept the invetable that he was never really OURS
