There seems a lot of panic over Kev - things like he is finished, we need a replacement now kind of stuff. Anyone who has played the game knows hamstring injuries are notoriously tough to get over with the only remedy rest and treatment. I can't believe some fans are writing him off saying he's over weight and slow - to be fair in the 20 mins he played on Friday he was closing down with intensity and still helped create the opening goal. Kev in my opinion still has 2 years left at the very top - we just need to manage his game time once he's fit - he will still have a great season and if we can get 35-40 games from him that will be enough.
The guy is unique and offers something different from anyone else. We have been blessed to watch him at the very top for so long but all this talk of him being done is madness. The guy has always stepped up in the biggest moments - his scoring record against the very best is incredible - he is the epitome of a big game player.
Finally I actually think on the video clips of pre-season he looked happier than ever. This is a minor blip but Kev will be needed and fortunately both Pep and he know that despite some odd ones on twitter/fans sites thinking not!
