I agree, it should be easy. But if it was easy then surely he wouldn't show signs of tiredness as regularly as he does. At 25, he's had a good period of time to improve on it. Our fitness/endurance/conditioning training can't be too bad, or we'd have more players looking exhausted halfway through the second half. I think it's just him. Would be interesting to see his stats to see how far he runs on the pitch during an average game. Maybe he covers loads of ground, or offers up more sprints than others. Could be a contributing factor I guess, but I don't think he particularly chases down balls or players more than anyone else.

I think he's a good player, but I do agree with this. For all his positives, it seems his fitness is something that is might be an ongoing issue for him in his career. As a professional footballer he should be able to put in a good 90 minute shift, but so frequently tails off fairly early on. Might have asthma or something (?) Should do well at Reading, think it was a good time for everyone for him to move, but would have been happy for him to remain here as a squad player. Just Facebooked a Reading mate of mine - probably over-egged the pudding a bit, but thought he could do with cheering up: Danny Guthrie - bloody good signing Stu. Excellent distribution and creative in attack, he can play on the wing, but is best through the middle. Quality corners and free kicks as well - he should weigh in with a few goals. Does tend to visibly tire beyond the 75 min mark, but keeps up with the game and reads situations well. Sad to see him leave, but he was going to struggle to get games. Hope he settles in well and helps bring success to Reading... and just for your benefit mate - come on URZzZ!

Kieron Dyer signs one-year contract extension with QPR
Mister_Glass replied to LoveItIfWeBeatU's topic in Football
From wikipedia: "In July 2011 Dyer signed a one-year contract with Queens Park Rangers.[41] He made his debut on the opening day of the Premier League season against Bolton. He made a bright start having a goal disallowed, however was stretchered off with a suspected broken metatarsal after just four minutes." So maybe not so bad for the lad, which is good news for him and QPR I guess. Still - he is a proper sicknote. Whats the betting that he's injured in his first game back following recovering from this latest setback? -
Tooj what is your avatar? I can't make it out. I was looking at that - it's Gazza sprintin with the police towards Raoul Moat. He's carrying fishing rods, beers and chicken. BRILLIANT!

We've had some tremendous players join us, but well past their sell by date - Kluivert and Butt spring to mind. Not so hot when they've been here, but elsewhere they were immense. Butt still is obviously. Like a ginger Dunga but with better vision, distribution and overhead kicks.
