David Healy admits Kyle Lafferty can be “a pain in the a**e” at times but says signing the controversial striker was an easy decision to make.
The Linfield boss handed Lafferty his debut against Cliftonville at a raucous Windsor Park on Saturday, with the Blues faithful turning out in their droves to welcome the 89-times capped Northern Ireland star to south Belfast.
And while the 35-year-old looked rusty at times, he played his part in helping the Blues to a vital 1-0 victory over their title rivals, secured by a Kris Lowe own goal.
