I selected Killa as he has been one of our best & most consistent performers this season
I was highly critical of NK in the last few months of last season even though i have always been a fan of our No.8
We have played 4 and won only a single game against Championship opposition this season. We are [and have been for many months] incapable of keeping a clean sheet. Derby strolled through our midfield like it wasn't there. Forest cut us to shreds for 20 minutes. 'V' Foxes our second half performance collapsed when the big lads pushed up on our centre mid where Killa had been playing unfettered in the first half - he was very good in that first half as well. The glaring omission in Larry's recruitment policy to date is a tough tackling midfield player. So I for one will not be weakening - our jolly little swagman has to be replaced for me if we are to 'compete' with the 'big' boys:
Howson [Captain/leader/finest passer of a ball at ER with the rare talent of a Bowyer/Peters and for many MOTM in the only game we've won]
Gradel - match winner and a total star
Watt - raw talent, unbelievable skill, pace and no fear. Terrorises defences when played up front. Sign him up!
Sam - totally exceeded my expectations and turning out to be the goal scorer he never was at Charlton
Kasper - a legend in the making. His distribution is out of this world.
These players are the ones who change games. Kis would displace Kasper in my 5 if fit. Gradel is in because he [almost] single handedly turned our season round when we were doomed last year. For that he will always be a hero to me. He has real competition now though . . . I back him to come through!
