We've lost Leon Best

[Bozza]

Hughton, referring to the continuing striker search,: "We have got to think about what we've lost. Leon Best went back (to Blackburn) and we've lost Craig Mackail-Smith (released). That is an area where I want to have good options."

In this particular case, isn't losing really winning?

As long as he stays lost

 

[Mackenzie]

Nooooooooooooooooo!

He was the absolute pits

 

[Machiavelli]

Leon Best contrived to lose Leon Best. Glad we're shot of this non-player.

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

How could we lose him? He doesn't move quickly enough to get lost. He's more than likely still wherever Hughton last saw him.

Barber IN!

Although I was reservedly happy with CH being appointed, it does concern me that he holds Leon Best in such high esteem.

Ever the diplomat

 

[Diablo]

Best?? Worst was my opinion..

I lost the national lottery: I only got 5 numbers and the bonus number.

Big ask to find two strikers who will come up with as many goals as CMS and Best got for us last season!

Best left alone this thread.

What's he meant to say?

 

[glasfryn]

this really saddens me


















not

I know I will be in the minority, even a lone voice, but I am more pleased that we have lost CMS. The loan for Best may not have worked, but I still think his all round game has far more potential than either COG or CMS. I am not saying that he showed that to warrant his staying with us, but I think supporters of Leicester, Huddersfield and Bolton would say something similar about Beckford, and for whatever reason he has found some good form with PNE (Yes, in League 1) but a player who now has confidence to match ability will cause plenty of problems in the Championship. Best will find his PNE, and if fit, and with confidence, maybe it could have been us..

 

[Gullflyinghigh]

Wouldn't it be a tragedy if someone actually managed to find him again.

 

[happypig]

Best will be easy to find; he'll be moaning at a linesman somewhere.

The actual quote is: "Leon Best went back". CMS is the one he specifically says we " lost ". Should we read anything into this choice of words, or am I just being pedantic?
