Once again, injuries have destroyed the prospects of a very gifted player. Would've been a great goalie but injuries put paid to that. Feel sorry for the lad.
I remember him being one of the most consistent and almost flawless goalkeepers in the league. It's a real shame to see him slip far down the pecking order.
1023 FOOTBALL: Wigan goalkeeper Chris Kirkland has returned from his loan spell with Championship side Doncaster after just one match because of a back problem.
Unluckiest player ever. Really do feel for the guy.
Ali Al-Habsi has replaced him as No.1 at Wigan, but I don't think he's as bad as a Doncaster player yet (no offence meant) - at least he should play for a top Championship club. Good luck to him, though, a talented but injury prone player!
