Laudrupsleftfoot 10,585 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 He makes some great runs and those were two very good goals from him. Not sure he's our level but if he continues to improve and score regularly in the league then who knows. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tony Macaroni stadium wae six cunts in the stand taking 5 aff "title contenders" lol. I agree. Couldn’t believe the defensive shambles as the league leaders coughed up their unbeaten tag at Ibrox, too. Sounds as if they’ve had another meltdown tonight! 35 Yard Dangerman 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laudrupsleftfoot 10,585 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Defending was shocking but the pass from the boy who came on that led to one of their goals was great quality. Menga looked pretty good too, as strong as Morelos and some good skill. Reminded me a bit of Waghorn. Think the league's as healthy as it's been for years and there are some decent players outside of us and them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lafferty his Villareal goal apart has been a huge letdown, if Hardie leaves at the end of the season without playing for us we will never know but he would have been a better and cheaper option than Lafferty. mark1963 and jamess 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeparateEntityMyArse 53,253 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 It will be absurd if we go into the 2nd half of the season with only AM and KL upfront whilst a Rangers forward plays and scores on loan in the same league. I want Solanke in on loan but tbh I'd bring Hardie back too and give him chances in games before I'd persist with the under achieving Lafferty. terry739 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo we should have 3 1st team level forwards competing for jersey(s) along with a promising youth promoted from the academy. The reality is we've got one capable forward in Morelos, one shirt filler in Lafferty who can't be relied on to impact well on a game, and Hardie out on loan. Only one youth has been given a chance that I recall and he got injured. It's a no brainer to bring in more quality and if it can't be better than Hardie I'd rather give him a shot than not. The whole thing about giving him another year then loaning him out appears a nonsense unless there's more to it, ie potential development fees etc, that's not obvious at the moment.

It just seems bizarre that the most natural finisher at the club can't get into a team that's crying out for one. I love Morelos, and he's capable of scoring great goals, but imo Hardie has a better instinct in front of goal. It would be great to have both in the side.

pcbear 10,913 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Rudden, Hardie and Dallas are three good natural goalscorers on our books, hopefully at least one turns out to be the real deal and becomes a first team regular banging them in.

The reason for this is because it's so rare for a Scottish youth at 17-20 to be better than the pro ahead of him. And if there is a player likely to be able to walk into the team he'll now be poached by a bigger league, like Gilmour. A Barry Ferguson or Gilmour (albeit he has everything still to prove) is a once in 10-15 years player. 1690tamRFC and KingKaiJohansen 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to be here developing and stepping in when Alfredo is banned and lafferty plays pish as usual. We should be developing the Hardie’s, Mccrories etc rather than Liverpool’s U23s. At least there is a huge benefit to it. Nobody can say (with the exception of Kent at times) we have been improved by any of the loan signings. Hardie is a boy that could grow and go on to be a top striker dedicated to the bears. Even Alfredo has an expiration date in the next 24months. He goes somewhere else and we are at a loss. Probable less than 24 months. The tarriers have their own boys coming through who have spent years around their 1st team and aren’t leaving anytime soon. We also have quality youngsters and they should be around our first team. SeparateEntityMyArse, Stardog, jamess and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree, they cunts have more in their first team now than we habe brought through in decades. I feel its more a fan mentality. Perfect example would be middleton atm and the abuse he gets here is uncalled for at times. As long as i can remember going back to the mid 80s we were always a buying club hence the comment about 1 youth player every 15 years or so Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
