Kai has gone.

First of all good luck to him.

Second of all for all his desire he was bloody shi&e and not good enough.

We need a lot better than him.

 

Lovely bloke too, and great attitude. Will miss Kai, all the best in Germany mate.

 

Agree with @BoingBoing on this one, for all his effort and endeavour, the fact is Bruenker was short on talent and ultimately, this is what we need.

Weve tried with him, he has improved, probably with fitness and yes hes a unit, but the fact is he never really looked likely to score, and to progress we need players better than him. A likeable character, good luck to him but theres no room for sentiment in our position. We need better and I for one am glad to see him move on

 

All the best Kai, look forward to tracking your career at Bayern.

 

Nowt against Kai as a bloke, said that from day one, but the whole affair has been ridiculous. Brunker was nowhere near League One standard, however he was fine for those last 5-10 minutes when a game was either already won or lost. The fact we, at times, seemed to rely on him as a first team player was extremely concerning and indicative of everything we got so badly wrong.

If he's improved due to the level of coaching post-Collins, great! Hope he goes back to a slightly higher standard in Germany, or shows off whatever improvements he may have made, and if it helps him earn more money (or even continue as a pro) then it was all worth it for the lad!

 

I hope we bring in another Jonny Foreigner. Can’t be a respected team without one these days. I’m in full anticipation that DH has been scouring the Scandinavian market ala Kammy, and we see some Nordic talent before Barnsley.

 

What's Norman done wrong to be labeled with that comment .

 

So if we had picked ‘Charlie’ to play midfield and he tried his best and gave 100%, we should bow to him, even if he was out of his depth?

Tony McMahon gave everything for City and had more ability than Kai will EVER have. Was that good enough for our fans? No, many still wanted him gone.

Another? What about Hanson? Received dogs bollocks abuse on these threads, but was Ronaldo compared to Kai.

I just don’t get the “he was poor but tried hard, so I should hero worship him” crap

 

Liked the lad always tried his best,unfortunately his best was never going to be good enough

 

Unless we have paid them off

 

And a fair few others that haven’t rushed to post their criticism

 

Hopkin ain't messing about. He's getting rid of the dross pronto.

Must mean we've got someone lined up - or if not, it's inevitable we'll add a forward. Surridge....?

 

He’s actually signed for Real Madrid and they are loaning him straight to Bayern.

 

Isherwood next.

 

I heard Edin has his agents badges and promised him he'll fix him up at Bayern Munich.
Good luck with your attempts to convince any manager you're a footballer Kia, Mr Nice Guy without doubt but footballer....................................................your not.

 

Norman was always a trier too he used to coach me at Junior School some of my team mates used to run rings round him but he was always the eternal optimist but never very good

 

Don’t think you could ever doubt his comment and endeavour. Good luck to the lad he tried his best.

Obviously, Hopkin doesn’t understand football that much like Rahic. How will we cope with this lose.

 

No one's asking anyone to hero worship him, except in the ironic cult hero sense.
I don't actually think he was as bad as you and some others make out. He showed in the Oxford game that he could give L1 CBs a tough time. He was far more effective in that game than Doyle had been by that point in the season. If we'd had any wingers he'd probably have bagged the odd header from time to time.
If it means we're getting a better striker in then of course I'm glad about that. But I still have a soft spot for Kai for his attitude through a very difficult time when others were giving up the ghost.

 

Absolutely spot on.

Still miss-times headers. Doesn’t hold the ball up and rarely gets headers on target. Can we bring back Achille Campion or Chib Chilaka and rave about them too?
