    You also said Leicester would finish second, which is hilarious. Honestly, you'd have to be fully mentally ******ed to think that, which clearly you are ... no offence. As for Schmeichel, I never said he'd come here, I always said I hope he didn't and now we've got McGregor I'm happy to say I was right.

    Fingers crossed then I guess.

    Oh well. When Hull realise Graham and Sagbo just arent going to cut the mustard they can pull out Matty Fryatt and Prossie.

    OMG ... as my kids would say ... (and most of the posters on the last two pages by the look of things - who will probably be sharing the same lessons today)

    Nugent - 32 goals in 97 appearances for Leicester.

    Fryatt - 25 goals in 75 appearances for Hull.

    You slate Fryatt but he's pretty similar to Nugent really with that strike rate (Nugent's only got 7 more goals in 22 more games than Fryatt).

    Having seen both play over a long period of time I would take Nugent. No matter what people say about Nugent he always gives his best and winds to opposition up no end <laugh>

    Im not saying Matty doesnt give his best but he needs too much managing by the manager. Too much of a confidence player

    Although you could put this another way

    Nugent - 32 goals in 97 appearances for Leicester in the Championship.
    Fryatt - 18 goals in 118 appearances for Leicester in the Championship.

    I'd take Nugent over Fryatt anyway, mainly because Nugent is consistant, some of the performances Fryatt put in left me like this

    Admittedly, he is pretty poor at one-on-ones (Fryatt). He could be on twice the amount of goals if he'd have put them away on a regular basis. Fryatt and Proschwitz will be going I reckon anyway. They had their chance at Leyton Orient and didn't take it.

    The main difference is that despite their perhaps similar records Nugent is a first team player at Leicester and Fryatt doesn't even get on our bench.

    and the fact you're a Premier League side and he's been injured for a season obviously makes no difference...<doh>

    I don't care about goal records.

    I've always said that Nugent's primary aim isn't to score goals.

    If you were to look up assists I bet Nugent's would be in the 20s and Fryatts would be closer to 0.

    Nugent is a workhorse, a very good passer of the ball and a leader. Fryup is neither of those things.

    He's had a lot longer than Aluko to recover yet Aluko is one of the first name's on the team sheet and Fryatt can't get near the squad.

    Point out where I said anything about him taking Aluko's position?


    He doesn't have Aluko's position because he's ****ing **** <ok>

    Matty Fryatt has and always will be an average championship striker and a top end league 1 striker

    Nugent has always been a very good championship striker.

    You made it seem as though the reason Fryatt wasn't playing was because of his injury, I was informing you that it wasn't as Aluko returned far later yet starts. I wouldn't say he was '****ing ****', just not Premier League quality, could probably still do a decent job for you.

    Either way, Aluko plays off the striker so its a pointless argument. The reason you've signed strikers is because Fryatt isn't anything like PL quality and his injury meant he couldn't take any form into the PL anyway.



    The only time he's done a decent job for us was in League One. He was dire before relegation and average after promotion, although he did score a few in our first season back he still played ****.




    I just don't rate Fryatt as a modern day centre forward. His all round game isn't anything like Nugent's or Vardy's, only his finishing is better but you have to be far better than that these days.
