    To please the fans

    People wanted a signing (of course we got 4) but he's not added an awful lot, granted he's had decent performances. No goals though, and as everyone points out, goals make strikers.

    He's hardly even demonstrated that, has he?

    Can I change it to "He's meant to be fast, though"?

    Did You People Not Read The Yorkshire Sport Last Sunday ?

    Knight was so out of favour at Swansea that he wasn't allowed to train with the team or even play reserve matches. In the past few months (since about October) all he's been able to do is use the club gym on his own to stay in shape. He is currently as of last week only 60% fit. Lets judge him once he's 100% fit and not slag him off now. It will only result in egg on your faces when he knocks them in like it took Chopra a while to do. You cannot knock the effort he puts him.
