KM had to do the hard work then cross to JB .... JT had the easy part which he sometimes makes an arse of .... thankfully he didn't this time ... Still he does have some redeeming qualities .... and as you have said ..... he has played his part more than a few times this season in the build-up to scoring. One of MW's better signings .... and if rumour control have it right ... he may be joining him down at Forrest this summer. As said above I hope we get a decent amount for him if this is the case.

Another player who found his level in the Championship, and was unable to make the step up, just like a few others in our squad. A pity coz he started the season quite well. I probably agree mate about his level aye but I don't think it applies to my example. A dead ball in the Championship is no different to a dead ball in the Premiership. Open play sure, better players will affect his performance as he won't be as dominant but that doesn't apply to dead ball situations. Only he can influence them, so I can't fathom how his freekicks, corners etc were brilliant in the Championship yet he makes the step up and looks like he hasn't hit a corner in his life. Only explanation could be confidence possibly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah his goalscoring form was never going to carry on into this season, definitely a one off freak season. Don't think that's a fair assessment about his set pieces though. Had a great delivery last year and scored a few good free kicks as well, one against Hibs at Ibrox was a goal of the season contender. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I meant before last season I don't think he was anywhere near as prolific with his free kicks either and it's kinda back to normality this season. That's what I was meaning about last year being his Nicky Clark season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My suggestions have been good every one of them including Sibbald and Russell exactly the kind of young prospects with experience we should be in for all of them have EPL and championship teams in England monitoring there progress its just the morons working with SFA who never called them in to the under 21 squad cos there clueless Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers mate ... as we have the facilities to help with his injury ... and if we could get him on a free .... as you say it would be good business ..... no brainer then. Wouldn't be the first we brought back from career threatening injuries i.e. Durrant ... Naismith to mention a few. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al 55 9,252 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Slightly better than the other pish MW signed, incredibly inconsistent, awful defender and cost us a cup. Apart from that he's been great. Id take anything we can get for him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure he can get caught up the park at times, but his ability and bravery on the ball has created a number of important goals for us - see Filth away or even yesterday. Picks the ball up, and when some would punt it into the box or launch it up the park he takes on his man and creates. Hes one of only a handful that I think can step up with better quality around him, yet seems to be a constant target for criticism and abuse. Can't get my head around it. Am I alone in thinking this? A steady 6 is shite. You can't get over a 5 if you don't defend properly or be aware of your runners. He's sadly a sign of the times. Someone who looks better than he is because unfortunately we aren't that great a team just now. File him under Vukic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
