BlueVanguard 6,621 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Thought he was brilliant today! He brings so much more than what Hagi has been offering and Barker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

British_Empire 9,648 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Wouldn't say brilliant, he took his goal superbly. Got better as the game went on, which is to be expected as he's not played in over a year. Rusty to start with, again, which is understandable. But what I took from that, is that he's one to use on the counter-attack. He looked a lot better in the second half when we were under little spells of Motherwell pressure and breaking away, using the space and running into it. Compared to him getting the ball and trying to beat players and break down organised defences, that is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inigo 32,526 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Good game. One swallow doesn't make a summer though. Has mostly shown himself not to be good enough. Better than Barker doesn't mean much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueshoff 11,779 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Wasn’t he blatantly tripped near the end and didn’t get a free kick? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fin8577 402 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 He is fast a direct which is what we need at times. But to say he offers more than Hagi is abit much to be honest Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broxi 11,482 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Brilliant goal, good game. Some good skillful runs, a few poor end products. Overall very good and useful performance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTF Hagi has a fantastic footballing brain just look at the way he set up Arfield last week at Hivs for the 2nd goal. He brings moments of magic that can unlock defences he just needs to work on his consistency Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to say he offers more than Hagi is abit much to be honest Unnecessary comparison too, they aren't like for like. Hagi as we all know does his best work centrally. You're talking £millions to bring in a better winger who won't need months to settle in the country, to the league, to the pace of football, to our style of play etc. and so as I said in the match thread it would be mental to let Jones go. Far better player than plenty give him credit for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangersross 6,530 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 He could be a really useful asset in a handful of SPL games and as an impact sub in Europe. Still think in the majority of our games - SPL, domestic cups - his style of play just isn’t going to work against packed defences. Put a tenner on him being MOTM against Ross County, though, because he’ll absolutely slaughter a poorer side who play fairly open football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenoz 30,821 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I thought his goal was excellent especially his first touch with his right. However, I'm still not convinced he is a starting 11 player week in, week out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

6superbarry6 14,154 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Could be useful in certain games and simply has to be before Barker in the pecking order, still behind Hagi though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WizardWalters 476 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Not going to get carried away. He played well. I would prefer him to Barker in the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeparateEntityMyArse 53,715 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 He did well. His goal was excellent. Id far rather see him in the team / squad than Barker. Far more much directness. I like him as an option if not a starter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookWorm 4,120 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Some player. Should be given more game time now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMB 14,167 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 The good thing about Jones is his speed and he’s so direct. The guy could be great in Europe where he’ll have space to run in to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goianegra 4,682 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 He'll never be a regular starter. But he's a better option to have in the squad than Stewart, Barker and (this one will annoy some) Murphy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
