jackrfc95 4,255 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Never been a lone striker and never will be but if played in a decent team with a system that suits him I'm convinced he'd score goals in this league. That being said I'd be worried if we went into the season with Cummings as our number 1 striker. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was half as good as he thinks he is he would’ve grabbed any chance he got to show he deserved a starting place. The only fact that needs to be looked at is he failed miserably. Just as well he’s a cheeky chappy from Scotland and not a miserable sod from Columbia our we wouldn’t be having this discussion. Or a Mexican who's fond of a bottle or a line or two.

Jack The Flipper 5,936 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Not fussed whether or not we sign him, to me he doesn't look good enough - but I feel the same with Morelos. The team cannot be built around Morelos, he's not of the required standard yet to be our main striker. He has potential but that's about it.

.Williamson. 81,987 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 I wanted him brought in so we could do something with this song We didn't bother though and instead did something with a fairly shite Human League song and honestly for that I don't want to be signing him BridgeIsBlue and ForeverAndEver 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He couldn't get a game at Forest either 1 He must have pissed Murty off early doors because he played immediately on 24th January against Aberdeen as a Substitute for Morelos and in the first 8 games he was a substitute 7 times and was substituted in the other one (Morelos) In those 7 games where he came on as substitute it was 4 times for Morelos, 1 for Holt, 1 for Goss and 1 for Candeias. Being a Substitute, or being Substituted 13 times out of 15 appearances makes me wonder who instigated the loan deal? That was the whole context of my thread; "Why did we bother bringing him to Ibrox in the first place?" Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer to that was obvious; We wanted to have a look at him with the option of signing him on a permanent deal in this current transfer window. Now it's my opinion that to have a proper look at a potential signing, he has to get the opportunity to show what he can do, or as we say in Australia, he has to get a "Fair suck of the Sav". Well, after delving into the stats, I don't think the lad got that opportunity, so what do you think troops? Premier League: Played 15 games- scored 2 goals. Aberdeen - Substitute for Morelos 70th minute..............Ross County - Substitute for Morelos 79th minute (scored 82nd minute) ...........Hibs - Substitute for Holt 71st minute Partick Thistle - Subbed 81st minute by Morelos...........Hamilton Accies - Substitute for Morelos 79th minute...............Hearts - Substitute for Morelos 75th minute St. Johnstone - Substitute for Candeias 62nd minute..........SCUM - Substitute for Goss 74th minute..........Kilmarnock - Played the full game Motherwell - Substitute for Windass 82nd minute.............Dundee - Unused substitute ........................Hearts - Subbed 86th minute by Morelos (scored 47th minute) SCUM - Played the full game....................................Kilmarnock - Subbed 45th minute by McCrorie......... Aberdeen- Substitute for Holt 61st minute Hibs - Subbed 62nd minute by Windass. Total contribution in the Premier League: Played 2 full games............Unused Substitute in 1 game................ Substituted in 4 games=274 minutes played Appeared as Substitute in 9 games for a total of 157 minutes played Scottish FA Cup: Played 3 games - scored 4 goals; Fraserburgh- Subbed 71st minute by Dodoo.........Ayr Utd. - Subbed 76th minute by Herrera (scored 66th minute) Falkirk - Played full game (scored 16th, 21st, 75th minute) In conclusion, no matter how good or how bad you think he is, or if Gerrard fancies him as an asset or not, Murty never did him any favours to show his worth Mark Allen signed him.

Tomatasauce 1,253 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 I’d have liked us to sign him before he went to Forrest, anybody bar Hibs an we probably would have but after his loan spell I’m glad we never i always liked Cummings character, he comes across a bit of a joker but he’s got a serious side to his game aswell. I was talking to a Hibs fan last week an tried to get him to decide a debate on who was the best brown or Thomson, he said he liked the both of them but his opinion was Thomson could have went to a higher level than brown then he got onto Cummings he said he’s a wee prick cos he was saying no surrender to any Hibs fan giving him stick for signing for us, sounds like he enjoys playing for the bears?

lango198 6 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 He didn't start because he clearly never showed enough on or off the pitch and that will also be the reason why we don't try and buy him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoopsLaud 4,184 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 This only emphasises yet again what a monumental fuck up it was to give murty the head coach role. Money wasted and opportunities galore wasted. Club our size should never be hiring a 20s coach to run first team. Just praying gerrard has enough quality in his staff to undo the last 3 years mess and put a winning team together. Cummings for me was always meh but no doubts the lad could have come good given a fighting chance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeparateEntityMyArse 53,613 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 The boy Kamberi that Hivs have just signed looked a good player and would probably have offered more as a 4th choice striker than JC. 100k they got him for.

bump 168 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 i think cummings would be a good signing for us,given a run of games he would provide and score goals,didn't think he got enough game time last season and if were paying under a million for him i think its worth a shot.

Orangeclement 570 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 He can't trap a bag of cement and is as moody as our no .1striker but as has been mentioned some fans seem to love him and I have no idea why. not good enough not even for cover .
