I don't think that Rogers and Grella really compare, because Grella came straight out of college football, whereas Rogers already has 18 caps for USA.
Grella had great technical ability but didn't seem to be able to use it on the pitch. Was he a striker or an attacking midfielder? He didn't seem to have any goal scoring instincts either way. Wasn't given a chance at Leeds though. Remember when we played Dichov ahead of him.
Will always remember him for the Kettering game, he turned that around for us.
Average conferance player at best.....
Funny how our top players at his time with us rated him higher then anyone at the club!..
I don't think Beckford is the sort to say things that could suggests someone is as good as or better them him!..
Not given a chance over here, good luck to him wherever he goes!..
I remember his first touch of the ball at Elland Road.... was an overhead kick clearance out of defense Says a lot about his skill.
Saw him in a reserve game and he looked a decent prospect, but he didn't show much in league games. And if he wasn't doing the business at Brentford, well it's a harsh world is football.
I really liked the guy, his skill was obvious, but he seems to have a character flaw somewhere to keep falling out of favour at clubs.
Made 18 appearances for the Bees since joining from Leeds in August and scored four goals for the club – all against Bournemouth in the Johnstones Paint Trophy.
Says it all really.
Uwe Rosler is a sensible chap.
He refused to go out on loan to many clubs under Grayson so i think it's an attitude problem. I remember him scoring 4 goals for the reserves here, he clearly has ability.

That could go a long way toward explaining our owner's attitude, and the team's altitude.
And the posters aptitude!
Nowt wrong with my aptitude Eric, so is it Jonny or the OP? Or could it possibly be anyone at the club's attitude and/or aptitude?
jami01, there's certainly nowt wrong with yours.
How is your attitude to altitude though? I see it as the height of good measurement.
