    He'll be objectively fit, but no way will he be anything near match sharp. Last played a match in October in a league which is probably the equivalent of a soft version of League 1, albeit with a few ageing stars thrown in. The Championship is one of the toughest leagues in the world. Now watch him go and score s hat-trick.

    I hope he's crap but I wouldn't count on it. I remember a few years ago when Scott Parker barely moved from the centre circle but absolutely ran the game.

    Charlie Adam did exactly the same for Reading against us a few week ago - 34
    Steven Fletcher tore us to pieces as well when we played Weds away back in August - 32
