He's crap
People judging this as if he's our main striker for next season. He's got experience in the premier league, physically strong, sufficiently quick and can score a great goal - that alone puts him in as our second/third best wide forward depending on if Murphy is a success and/or Hoillet stays. A little bit versatile too which we will need in improving our options for attack.
Has Bob said about the QPR fan saying unheralded signings being a success yet?
He got 3 goals and 3 assists in the league and was dropped for the second half of the season due to poor form (not speculating about it - it's fact)
Hoilett got 9 goals and 11 assists in a better division.
NML got 6 goals and 6 assists in a better division - suggesting their positioning and delivery must have been relatively decent.
I don't know how good Kennedy's positioning and delivery could have been to have be a "massive improvement" over those two, but hats off to you for your observations.
Basing it off the televised games I watched; he did suffer an injury which probably affected his form.
How many of NML's goals/assists occured in the first month of the season?
EDIT: Now if you mean https://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/f...sics-1-8400644 about Kennedy... that's something that can be taught out of him with a good manager, which Warnock is.
I did have a chuckle that you failed to note I said I'd like to have him in the squad. I'm sure you might believe everyone in a squad should start but sadly, only eleven can per game.
No, I meant that he's struggling to perform in League One and was dropped for the second half of the season.
NML didn't have a good season by any stretch of the imagination, but it was still better than Kennedy's.
You are definitely wrong about your last point and jumping to conclusions because I don't agree with you. I don't think everyone should start at all, that's ridiculous. What I would suggest is that our squad has players that are capable of performing in the higher divisions when called upon, not someone who failed to impress in League One.
Face it, Kennedy is 23 and has shown no signs of improvement in the last couple of years. To think that he could make the step up to a Premier League squad is, in my opinion, laughable.
In the games I've seen, he's shown himself capable of delivering quality crosses into the box. You can't seriously claim the same about either NML or Hoilett; our problem is we're not putting the ball into the box early enough.
He offers something different to Hoilett, NML, Murphy and Harris. On that basis alone I'd keep him short term to see if he can adjust; if it's a mentality where he needs to apply himself more, Warnock is the ideal manager for that.
Kennedy has been with us for 3 whole seasons following his loan spell. He has barely featured at all in that time and most of his games came when on loan. He has been a total waste of wages for City and successive managers ignored him. He'll probably get a club in League 1 or 2 but his career never really progressed in England.
He looked good after joining us, plenty clamouring for him to be a regular. If it's true his issues with us were more believing he'd already made it then that's a waste of his talent.
He's shown he can cross a ball, which is something our wide players don't really do. Better delivery than Kadeem Harris anyway.
A lesson in steadfastness from you to be fair - even when you’re making yourself look totally stupid you persevere with trying to make your point - and let’s be fair it’s a really dumb point you’re trying to convince yourself was good when you first wrote it. If only you could go back and edit it eh? 😂😂😂😂😂
Jesus... I'm glad I missed the replies.
