Whitts one of our best players.
First on the team sheet,I've heard Brendon Rogers has been making enquiries.

Yes he scored our winner. But he was shocking yesterday. He's a championship player end of.
We need a premiership playmaker. Someone who scores free kicks and creates chances in the premier league. Unfortunately he's not doing this at this level. And in my opinion that's why our strikers ain't scoring and didnt score many last year.

Take Whitts goals and assists out this year and we would have scored about 5 goals.

2 goals and 3 assists he's got.
If we had a premier league quality playmaker we would have a lot more goals and chances created in my opinion

Totally agree. It was a good brave header from Whitts but he still isn't performing well enough. If Kim played instead of Whitts we would have had the extra engine, work rate and creativity to probably slice West Brom open to win 3 or 4 nil.

Very poor yesterday but scored a great goal. Malky is stuck in two minds at the moment as he doesnt want to drop Whitts cause of his set pieces but cant play him in the middle when we're playing 4-4-2. He just doesnt have the pace to play outwide either

Golden Boot I hope you're right. Perhaps Brendan will relieve us of him!

My friend from way out west is right, extra engine and work rate are synonymous. I think you meant EXTRA FLAIR! Kimbo is magic! 8-)

How are they the same thing? A player could have the engine to get around the pitch, but not have the attitude or work rate to bother using his engine to full effect! A player could easily have the engine to get around the pitch, but duck out of a 50/50 tackle, so therefore doesn't have the work rate. I will use Bothroyd as an example. You could say Bothroyd had a decent engine drifting wide, picking up the ball and running at players, but he only did that when he wanted to. Why? Because he didn't have the work rate. Having a good engine and having a good work rate are completely different things.
