No. I didn't say he wasn't any further use, however he is not as good as Waghorn,( in my opinion).
Then you would be incorrect, in my opinion. You could pick any one of the key attributes for a striker, and Fryatt would win them all (except maybe strength).
The fact he is not playing, should speak volumes, the current manager appears not to see him as his first choice striker.
Correct. Although nif we were to play 4-4-2 then i suspect Fryatt would be "first choice".
Unlike Vassell,Fryatt should be match fit, something Sven and Vassell himself freely admitted he wasn't when he first joined the club.............. but he does have the chance to impress in training, the same as any other player.
Why should he be match fit? When was the last time Fryatt played a full match, or at least started a game? When was the last time before that? You may find that Vassell has now started more consecutive games this season than Fryatt. You don't get match fit on the training pitch, nor from 10-minute cameo appearances. Just ask Yuki.
He does not have the right to automatic selection, he has to earn the right to play, so if there shortcomings in his game, training is the place to show he has improved. Thats pressure, but thats professional football as it should be.
Correct. However, Fryatt has fewer short comings than most of the squad.
 
You knock Fryatt for 'physical speed' and 'speed of thought' and say he's no longer of any use, yet you imply that Waghorn is more important to us.

I doubt Fryatt is any slower, and he certainly has quicker 'speed of thought'.

The fact that Fryatt is barely playing says to me that he will be leaving us in January. There is no other reason, that I can see, why Sven wouldn't be playing him into fitness/sharpness in the same way that he is doing with Vassell.

I agree, except Waghorn is faster. Fryatt only seems to fit into a 4-4-2, which limits his playing time. At the moment, Vassell, Waghorn and Fryatt are all under-performing. SGE probably prefers Vassell because the other team has to respect his pace and can't play as far up the pitch.
