Anyone rate Keiron Dyer?

[Mark P]

I know he's a bit injury-prone, but if he was available cheaply, I reckon he could add a bit of guile and energy to the right side of our midfield? Just a thought.

[Guest Nic]

I rate him very highly, wanker though he is, but I reckon its more like £15 million.

[MLB]

Good player, but injury prone and a bit of a wanker. I'd much rather we went for Wright-Philips.

[Paul]

It's all been said: an injury-prone arsehole who isn't fit (in both senses of the word) to play for Liverpool.

[Agent Smith]

Agree with everything that's been said.

 

Injury prone, much rather have Wright-Philips and what do you consider to be cheap? Because if he was available I can't see him being sold for anything less than £8-10 million.

[Hoddy]

At this stage of each man's career, Dyer is easily the better player. However, whether the baggage that he brings with him is worth it is another question. For some reason or another, Kieron Dyer is constantly surrounded by some sort of trouble, and whatever is splashed around about Gerard Houllier, he's kept this football club off the front pages ever since he got here.

[Hermes]

He's crap, I dont understand how anybody rates him. He is very aptly named.

[Bellflower]

Second that...........

[Vivaldo]

No I think he is overrated, overpriced and was one of the reasons why shearer was gonna leave last jan.....apparently as some of peeps on the board were led to believe

[Duncan Clench]

Oh come on! How can you not rate him? Great player. Fast, goalscoring midfielder who holds a position on the wing.

 

Saying all that, I'd sooner have Wright-Phillips or maybe Jermain Jenus.

 

Let's just wait until the summer to see which over-rated French nobodies our illustrious coach buys!

i'm asking this as i honestly don't know, but how many goals has dyer scored in the last 2 years? i know he has a reputation for scoring, it's just i don't remember seeing it too often.

Don't know how many he's scored this season (not many) but he's had at least one bad injury hasn't he? Last season he was on fire and got his England call up as a result didn't he?

[Barrington Womble]

i got some league stats from the premier league web site (doesn't include cup games)

 

looks like 1 goal from 8 shots in 23 appearances this season. he's played 2085 minutes - so he's not been so good if you can believe the stats. certainly not a goal scoring midfielder this year.

 

a lot of people have slagged kewells contribution this season (although I think he's been ok) but he's scored 7 goals with 54 shots in 34 games (playing 3054 minutes).

 

now imagine if kewell had only contributed to us what dyer has to newcastle this season, plus you've got all the off pitch baggage - imagine the sh1te he would have got.

[Barrington Womble]

i've managed to find older stats too for dyer ..

 

2002/3 app 35 goals 2

2001/2 app 18 goals 3

2000/1 apps 26 goals 5

 

so to me it seems like he doesn't play enough and when he does he doesn't score enough.

I saw him do the H*skey type goal celebration once, so he has at least scored one goal! And that alone is a reason not to buy him! ;)... Seriously though, he is a good player but far too injury proned to be worth risking on. We already have Owen, Kirkland, Henchoz, Smicer, Finnan who are often injuried. Dont need another one. Would just add another excuse on the table for the management team! ;)

And by that i mean the goal celebration, not the goal as a reason not to buy him! ;)
