Do people on here honestly believe that Whitts is a better player than Bellers? I'm a massive fan of them both, but I would have to say Bellers is an all-round better player! :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I think because we had one good game without Bellamy people are now underestimating his ability and performance. He is without doubt by far the best player in this league.

You only have to look at the reaction of our fans after the Bristol game about witts. He had lost it and a lot of people saying we should have cashed in, now he is class.

IMO we have the best two players in this league.

Kevin McNaughton's only the best right back at our club because we haven't got another one! Although I'd like to see one of our wide men play there like Valencia occasionally does for Man United.

Can't believe no one has mentioned Paul Robinson of Blackburn. Easily the best keeper in the championship

Robinson has far more experience then Kenny as a footballer, and is much better in my opinion. Robinson made many appearances for England and has played at the highest level of football in his career, whilst Kenny has only play in the PL for two struggling sides (last year QPR, the other time a relegated Sheffield United). Kenny is a good keeper, but Robinson is better and should be playing in the PL.

Tom Ince, Whitts and a fit Belles are a level above anyonelse in this division.

Players like Kevin Davies and Danny Murphy obviously top drawer but both old.

Ability wise Ince is goin to the top and wen you see the likes of Jonny Howson, Leon Britton, Jonjp Shelvey playing PL you wonder why Whitts is still with us.

Class but Angryman wanted to cash in :lol: :lol: : lol:

Are you on crack?? McNaughton is not only our best right back but he is also our best defender for f**k sake. Just because his crossing isnt that goo,d which is why he is not a winger, doesnt suddenly make him a bad player. :roll:
