I see that Blackburn had a perfectly good goal not given, which is a massive shame!

I watched some highlights on that internet. Clearly got teh skillz, and pace, but some of his decision making can be a bit infuriating. Beat half the team and instead of passing it try to beat them all again.

Aye he's not bad though I suppose :)

Yeah, well you can prove anything with facts, can't you?

(Seriously though he's awesome, but if he could make the right decision more often with his passing he'd be better)

Aye, he's great for Leicester but wouldn't make it at a top club for the reason you've outlined.

He only came on at half time! Wow.

His fifth goal is pretty special. Fantastic technique.

Just about to watc Forest at Huddersfield, will be interesting to see how they fare.

Apparently Dougie Freedman is 'building a team that will capture the imagination, that will thrill and excite' according to the commentator. I'd feel a bit cheated if he manages it.

He won't. His usual bullshite. He'll be giving the fans little presents next.
