He's the best striker at the club when fit, no doubt.

 

But he'll probably be back in the treatment room soon.

 

Let me put it another way but with a subtle change in the probability to make it more accurate in my opinion:

 

He'll be back in the treatment room soon, no doubt.

He's probably the best striker at the club when fit.

Was sat next to the subs bench today. As Connolly was about to go on Adkins said to him "It's your turn now to get the goal"... Star :)

 

Yeah I was right next to the bench too. I heard Adkins say "You're a great striker but you'll be back in the treatment room soon"

I would agree with your sentiment

As for higher level - i'm not sure if anyone has any stats for this but i believe he is prone to injury

 

This is true, IMHO he is prone to injury, and this concerns me somewhat.

 

However, I would argue (dont shoot the messenger) that he is probably the best striker at the club (IMHO) when fit.

Apparently the issue Postman Pat was on about Re waiting for a story re Connolly. was/is true

 

NC is about to announce that the new phyiso and medical facilities about to be revealed at Staplewood will be called

the David Connolly Suite. NC wanted to keep it under wraps but it has been leaked to media

I've done some research into this to see if anyone else can confirm it.

 

I notice Chris Hutchings had the following to say:

 

Connolly could be back in the Saints team to face Walsall tomorrow after recovering from a groin problem, and Hutchings is fully aware of just how good he is.

 

He said: “He shouldn’t really be playing at this level. He’s been injured on and off in the last couple of seasons and it’s a fresh challenge for him.

 

“When he’s fit he’s a good player.

 

“He was a big star at Watford and went abroad to Feyenoord. He has played at the highest level and knows he can score.

 

“He’s has had an injury, he wasn’t playing in midweek (in Saints’ 1-0 win against Wycombe at St Mary’s) so it remains to be seen if he plays.

 

Pretty much confirms our general feeling, that he is prone to injury, however quite possibly the best striker at the club when fit.

He also said this:

 

"He's the best striker at the club when fit, no doubt. But he'll probably be back in the treatment room soon."

 

Which echoes a lot of things other people have been saying on here.

I'll probably get slated for this, BUT a VERY good source (my fictional friend who "works" at St Mary's) has it on very good authority that both Cortese and Adkins don't doubt that DC is one of the best strikers we have; HOWEVER, they also believe that he'll be back in the treatment room soon.

 

Not saying I'm ITK or anything, but if the Echo get hold of this then remember you heard it here first....
