He'd be a better player than he is now, that's for sure.

It's all moot anyway, because there aren't any magic pills so footballers have finite time in which they can improve their game. It doesn't happen quickly enough for someone to transform themselves from Titus Bramble to Zinedine Zidane, over the course of their career, obviously.

For poor auld Kevin Kilbane, the best he can hope for, over this period of 10-15 years is to improve from "shite" to "meh". But he will definitely improve, bless his cotton socks.
