He's got great movement off the ball and was getting behind the Ross County defence with ease. With confidence and match fitness I reckon he'll come good. It can't help that he doesn't speak English. Perhaps I'm biased as I say because he's my own personal favourite when he came, but I agree, I think given time, more match sharpness he'll get there. You can see from his link up play and runs that he'll not just act as our midfielder but one looking to get into the box and score goals and I think that's something we've missed from midfield, he gives us that extra attacking option up front. I'm happy to see him get time and did say even before that it'll take him some time to gel into the team and pick up some much needed match sharpness. I'm confident he'll do well.

tannerall 25,935 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 So are some difckheads on here suggesting he should be shouting FTP, Allah Akbar or meditating whilst mouthing the word : instead when he scores ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

duffy2391 574 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Still not convinced, for a box to box midfielder he's lacking badly in pace. Majority of passes were safe, had two chances to finish and totally fucked one of them. Need to see him play 90 minutes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
philiprfc 1,799 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 I'm more encouraged after today about him than I was after the Hibs game. On another note - me and my brother were walking on Sauciehall Street on Saturday night and we saw a guy who looked exactly like Pena. We both said the same thing. It was definitely wasn't him but he looked so much like him, even the hair. Wouldn't surprise me if this wee cunt was sitting wondering why whenever he goes out there are people taking photos of him.

CaptainDandy 834 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Couple of good runs today and movement looks decent. Looks majorly short of match sharpness though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cushynumber 25,178 Posted August 27, 2017 Author Share Posted August 27, 2017 The football brain is there. I watched his little runs and movement, and I thought "yup". He needs games though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs games though. Said as much today. You can see he lacks the match sharpness that only comes from playing games. Given game time I believe he will offer something don't current have, a player who will go beyond the frontline. For me, if we are playing a midfield 4, the best option is to play a central 3 with 4th player sitting on wide. Think Pena would fit well into that.

I wonder if Pedro intends on playing him off the left like a bit today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogtanian 252 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Looks like a player who has goals in him, managed to find space for himself around the box and their defence struggled to track his runs. Fluffed his shot today but expected as he's clearly lacking match sharpness, I'm confident he will come good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
billythebear1986 303 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Thought he found space between their mid and defence very well nearer the end. Think he could play the role Pedro has set out for windass better an more effective. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smile 26,600 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Looked like he had never played football before and was wandering about aimlessly the passage of play between him and Herrera that should have led to a goal was very poor as well.

To Be A Ranger 4,032 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 He's not reading the game or movement of his team mates too well, but did get into a couple of good positions. Needs game time and I really don't know if there's a player there or not. But I'd rather give him time on the pitch than see Kanjcar there any more.

Orange and Blue 1,173 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 When pena and herrera got introduced to the game it changed it, I could see Ross County getting an equaliser in that second half. So well done to the maneger and the players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
