I keep reading comments about Demar being a lightweight and to small for this level, i cant find any stats on his actual size anywhere to compare with other players. Theo walcott isnt exactly big and his size isnt an issue, he is only 5,7' and weighs 67kg. anyone know how this compares

Hoping he goes out on loan too he needs to get used to the pace of the english leagues and a few steak pies before he gets in our starting line up.

he isnt that lightweight for his height, 5 ft 5 i would say he is, around 9 st 3 ??? but i think loaning him out would do him the world of good.
And i know it may sound hollow, but he does need half a stone of muscle on him. Im sure he is working really hard on that part though.
If you look at players like dyer from southampton, he has the same build has him, the shirt almost looks to big for him ;D, but he gets a few run outs, HOWEVER,southampton are a totally different unit to stoke.
Either give him a chance against scunny or farm him out on loan.

With Gally & Pugh in the squad I can't see Demar getting a game.

Everytime demar is mentioned theres allways this banter of how he is to small and lightweight to be in the first team.Persoanlly i think its a load of shite,so what if he aint up to everyones standard but if he is worth a go let him have half a game.

the 10 mins that we saw him against charlton he was quick, not afraid of running at people and had an eye for a pass.
give him a chance should we need him in the play offs, but i hope we dont need the play offs to get up to where we belong!!!
;D;D;D;D

I don't think we've had a decent look at Demar yet, he's not suddenly going to turn into Arnie, he's obviously match fit though and an established international - but I can't honestly see how he's going to get the run he needs in the immediate future. He's this season's mystery signing for me.

He should be on-loan or in the first-team squad. Sitting in the reserves is a waste of time, no one can improve their game there. Just look at Parkin, as fat as ever.
