We were asked who we would cherry pick but at no point did anyone suggest they would be in the first 11... in fact if you read carefully just about everyone to a man who has mentioned squad status for these choices have said back up. In the specific case of Kiston for example, he's been firmly placed in the 4th striker catergory.
The idea that not one of the players in the relegation teams is good enough for a squad place at a higher team is silly. you tried to put a west ham one off get out clause but West ham are not an exception. For christ sakes a squad memeber from our own 5th placed finish last year, plays for Derby. Lescott was mid table championship last term, Davies was at play-off failures westbrom...
It's nonsense and does you no credit to throw a blanket over all the players in the teams getting relegated. Almost as little credit as posting accusations of us promoting Kitson to fill berbatovs boots, when we quite clearly posted in English (all be it spelt iffily) that we consider him a good punt for a 4th striker.
I was merely making the point that if Berbatov goes we need someone else of his quality - I wasn't suggesting for one moment that you were offering Kitson in that role, and I would rather focus on that than getting in more average squad players when we have a good squad already. Kenwynne Jones is the only person mentioned who offers us something we lack in my opinion.
I'm not sure why you are questioning my ability to read English either - just because I misguidedly thought Mido was going to be the dog's bx doesn't mean I'm Egyptian or illiterate.:wink:
