    he did OK - i'll say that. comparative to what i expected from him, in any case. there's still absolutely no way he should be a football league professional player though.

    Whilst we absolutely need better than him.. it did highlight how much better Doyle, Ball & Payne player with having a player of that ilk about ... and he can direct a header better than Hanson

    I feel really sorry for the lad - doesn't matter what he does he'll always get pelters and sarcastic cheers but he puts in the effort - can't say the same for a lot of our other players in the last few months.

    Clearly he hasn't been good enough for this level and up until Saturday he's shown nothing to suggest he could do anything for us. Saturday he looked like a potential player. Won headers, bullied defenders, ran all game harassing Oxford and took the pressure off a lot of our other players - even if he didn't contribute in terms of goals and assists directly he did contribute to build up and also offers extra protection defensively.

    He can only improve with game time.

    It's doesn't matter if he's shit, or if he's a Rahic signing. He's a city player, he puts in a shift every time he plays, get behind him and the manager at least until January.

    I gave you a like but really no need for your last comment, the rest is correct IMO, did everything you said, actually helping make Doyle, Ball and Paynes jobs easier.

    to be fair, I desperately want him to score in the league at VP - the roof would come off. if we had one.

    I thought he was pushing for a booking when he was milking everything from his substitution - classic

    He's living the dream and fair play to him!

    Also look at the games he's started and our results from those games.. yes it may just be coincidence however it's quite telling

    As you all know I don't agree with any of this slating of Bruenker.............but at least when he plays it keeps everyone off Chicksen's back.......who I thought also had a decent game Saturday after the first 10 or 15 minutes

    I thought that he did well against Aldershot and generally looked to have the beating of their central defenders. Oxford, like other most other L1 defences, had him in their pocket for the first 20 minutes but that changed with the 2 goals and when their confidence crashed he had an effective game.

    If some of the more talented players we've fielded in the last 12 months had shown even half of his commitment and enthusiasm, we would not be propping up the table right now. If we have a good transfer window I doubt that we'll see much of Kai in the new year but there's a couple of home games before then and I'd love for him to be able to take the memory of scoring a goal in front of the kop back to Germany with him but even if that doesn't happen, he can still leave with his head held high because he really has given it his best shot.

    Ha ha ha, yes ! People were initially bemused by the eight minutes 'added time' ........... Kai will probably claim every second of those ! :D

    Doyle couldn’t do that job, so why would you be able to?

    Not having it. He contributed to a good team performance. Not perfect but good enough. He deserves his praise in that performance. Whether you or I like it or not

    I agree with you Bronco,being a pest in attack is less risky.Putting him in defence might be stressful to say the least!

    Haha I agree with that. He did win a couple of headers in defence but seemed to be doing an awful lot of wrestling. I was dreading a "centre forwards tackle" coming at any time.
