Michael Kightly

[Hull City AFC (HCHKR)]

Since Cameron Stewart is injured, could this pave the way for Kightly to come on loan? Or would Jamie Devitt be the preferred choice? I personally wouldn't mind because Kightly is a talented winger, but Devitt is a good replacement as well. I'm caught in two minds.

I've seen a number of folk on here say they can't see it happening due to him not being fit and wolves seeing him in their plans for end of season run in so only a short term loan. I agree and can't see it. I do think somebody of his ilk may come in though

as I've posted earlier on another thread...

just to add my tuppence to the Kightly rumour. I believe he's got the same knee problem that I have, namely patella tendonitis. It's the same thing that kept Owen Hargreaves out for 2 years. I've just had surgery on mine and my surgeon expressed surprise that Manchester United included Hargreaves in their 25 man squad at the beginning of the season. He said that if it had been up to him, he wouldn't have done. Going by that same logic, I'd be very dubious about Kightly, even if he was available and "fit". I know that I've got another 9 months before I can even start to think about playing again, and even then, that's a big if.

...I think it would be a risk for whoever takes him on, but it makes sense for Wolves to see whether he can get back to his best

Burnsy said on Sat (I know that doesn't set it in stone) that there was nothing in the Kightly rumour.

Expect it to go through any minute now then

He's only in light training, he's a month away from full training, by the time he's ready the season will be over, a non-starter.

Greening's a far better bet.

Judging by this mick is will to let him out on loan maybe for a month :http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/w/wolverhampton_wanderers/9404288.stm

he would be a good addition, but he doesnt no match fitness after being out injured for so long, would he really make a good enough impact??

 

[merchantman5]

We need a player who is match fit not one who would use his time to get match fit

 

[WithsHC]

Well I do like Devitt but I also quite like Kightly ... but who's better .... only one way to find out ..... FIGHT!!!

For the 2 wing spaces, we've got:
Koren, Belaid, Barmby, Devitt and Garcia set to come back into contention and Solano at a push too, with ***an back - April?

Plus the option to revert to a 4-3-3 with Simpson, McLean and Fryatt upfront - which I think we'll see more of, mainly because without Stewart, we don't have much pace in midfield - with Simpson, Fryatt and McLean, we still have pace in the team.
