ShootSpeedKillLight 0 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 He's trying too hard. I remain optimistic he'll be one of Smith's buys that goes into the 'worth the money' column. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLUEDIGNITY 33,660 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Have any fellow bears,noticed how many times he slips/falls? In every game ,any theories? For all his failings he contributes much more than the one trick pony with no end result ! And wants to play for Scotland, the Country of his birth !

BlueSuedeSambas 53,941 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I'm not getting the whole Naismith thing at all. He just isn't doing it for me at all. He looks a lot more cumbersome than he did pre injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcbear 10,924 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I thought after the Holland game he would have kicked on for us, he never, now back to his frustrating self. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks a lot more cumbersome than he did pre injury. I don't think anyone can really argue that at the moment he's producing nothing, but I remain hopefuly he'll come good.

BlueSuedeSambas 53,941 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 So he's shite then ? He puts a shift in, but he's not looking anything like the attacking threat he was a year or so ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

colin 18 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 He runs about mad for 90 plus minutes and I am sure he slips a lot because of how fast he runs, but it's a shame he can't trap or control a beach ball, but he is young so I am sure Ally will give him some tips...................................Follow...........................Follow.. ............................Colin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythebest 11,453 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 He's not been able to handle the step up from Kilmarnock to Rangers, that's the bottom line. Bad luck with an injury but we can't keep using that as an excuse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShootSpeedKillLight 0 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I said this in another thread, but it can't help being played in a different position every single game you start. This applies to other players as well, not just Naismith. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This applies to other players as well, not just Naismith. That can't always be used as an excuse especially when so many of the basics seem to be lacking, similar case with Lafferty.

docspiderman 1,234 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 A player with poor technique,unable to run with the ball without looking at it,poor control and for someone who should have a low centre of gravity falls very often, although a lot of this is when he jumps to avoid potential tackles. He played well in very short burst at Killie and did nothing for long spells in games,playing for a team with expectation is different and he is a trier but not top of the table quality.
