BoroDownSouth 60 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I absolutely loved Leroy Lita, he was just a funny player to have. But I wouldn't have him again with the team we've got. Link to post Share on other sites
Somerset Boro 98 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 lita? god we are not that desperate are we? and for the record i wouldn't have bellamy either, he may have pace but the baggage he brings isn't worth it. Link to post Share on other sites
MMC 1,000 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 No need for Lita at all. The only thing he's increase is the number of times we'd get caught offside. Link to post Share on other sites
Downsouth 6,326 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 And his automatic yellow card every time he scores with his silly taking off his shirt...how many times that annoyed me in the past! Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Spirit of 86 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I can't believe Lita's name has been brought up yet again! There's a reason he's not at the club, and there was a reason the majority of people thought it was excellent business moving him on... let it be! Link to post Share on other sites
Prowler 197 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Lita was ace. Was just pure power and pace and absolutely terrified defenders with tired legs. Had one heck of a shot on him too. Link to post Share on other sites
holgater 6 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I rated Lita. Was a bit thick with his many, many offsides and taking off his shirt, but I thought he was a really good striker at this level. When we were in the Prem I'd looked at him and thought decent player him, and when we went down I really wanted us to get him so was happy when we did. Don't think he done too badly here at all, 20 goals in 51 starts (27 sub) is pretty good really. Thought he was exciting to watch as he was so pacey and powerful. I remember being right behind a shot he had at Hull in the dying minutes that seemed to almost snap the bar in half. He showed with his loan spell at Wednesday last season that he's still a goalscorer at this level - 6 goals in 13 starts (6 sub). If we were still looking for another striker in a couple of weeks I wouldn't be too adverse to him coming back at all. I think he'd do well and cause problems for defenders.

Air Resistance 26 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 If we were to sign another deeper lying forward, then i would take lita back in a second. lita>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>miller. Leads the line and a different type of footballer to what we currently have. Not really the answer to our problems, but he would be a reall assett to have on the bench.

holgater 6 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 has anybody mentioned Stephen Dobbie yet? Just seen that Blackpool are after him on loan after Palace have left him out of their 25 man squad. He is a great player at this level and fits the player profile of what Mogga wants perfectly. Would be a quality loan signing. Link to post Share on other sites

LinoJo3 3,191 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 The whole point of what we are trying to do is only spend on players who are worth it, theres no point spending money on Lita on loan. He has a 1 in 3 record, isnt really anything special and is coming towards his 30s. Then you have to consider it would only be a loan, so absolutely no return on the money.

Guest Spirit of 86 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Those suggesting Lita can't have watched him regularly in a Boro shirt, the guy was frustrating and, more often than not, a liability! Link to post Share on other sites
Prowler 197 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 His last 4 or 5 months with us, he was fantastic. Link to post Share on other sites
