King Jela 19,193 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Might take dogs abuse for this but absolutely fuck splashing £5 million on him. Wrong attitude, wanting a week on the ball, standing about waiting on it coming to him, wanting too many touches and useless when he did have it. Genuinely should've been hooked at half time. Showed nothing against our biggest competitors for trophies or in Europe. falkirkNS, billscott and Jack C 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeparateEntityMyArse 52,084 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 If he'd understood you get no time for dribbling in Central midfield, waiting on the ball to arrive, and dilly dallying in this fixture he'd have had far more success today. wully 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swagger 7,111 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 We should never be lumping 5 million odd on him. Clear out needed and that sort of cash is too much to splash on someone who can’t turn up against them. That and the fact I don’t believe he wants to be here Giiise, falkirkNS, JCDBigBear and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bluenoz 29,298 Posted April 8 Popular Post Share Posted April 8 He's getting way more criticism in here than he deserves. He's barely in the door and is only 20 yrs old. £5m is actually not a lot of money for a player of his calibre. plymouthranger, Jamie0202, Darth Bear and 20 others 23 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkylineBlue 20,407 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 He's young and clearly has massive potential, but for £5m major questions need to be asked about why he's disappeared in every single game against them. They signed Jota for just £6m and Abada for half of what we'll pay for Tillman and they both terrorise us, so he needs to show that he can do the same to them. I still think we make money on him, so I'd sign him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
left winger 13,017 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Imo, he’s got two matches to show us if he’s worth the money. He needs to dominate at least one of the games left against them. Some players do take time to get used to old firm games, but another two will be plenty of time. If no then he’s not worth signing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeyserSoze 13,833 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Likes a lot of time on the ball. Looks half arsed at times needs to sort his attitude at times on the park as he’s just young and has a lot to learn despite him jogging about thinking he’s the finished article. no doubt he’s got potential. £5m though? falkirkNS 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's played in what, 3 OF games? He's still very young. Kent has played in about 25 OF games and has played well in maybe 3 of them. That's where the thread lies, not Tillman.

beararse 5,987 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 I’d try and extend his loan deal but I wouldnt be shelling out anymore than £3m for him. Looks a player but way too inconsistent and fails to ignite in the big games (although you could apply that to practically the entire first team squad). we need to rebuild in the summer and a further £3-4m not spent on Tilman would help bring in fresh new talent to replace the dross we have.

goaaaal 861 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 I'm inclined to agree he isn't effective enough in the game for me today was another example of that albeit he was miles better than Kent or Cantwell but I just don't think we can afford to splash out a reported £5m on one player it's debatable the manager utilises his abilities for his and the team's benefit . They barely look as though they can actually read each others game in a tight one on one by demanding the ball and making an accurate pass. Same when the likes of Tillman is in space and has the luxury of running at players or making a one two it's chronic how little options there are. it has to be good for the club not for those who can't or won't show for a guy who has bags of talent in the here and now the lad is a player but the manager and his team mates do him or themselves no favours when we need players showing for the ball and there are no forward runs . He may be a good talent but it's a stick or twist for the club as getting shot of the others who either don't want to be here or need moved on is as big a factor in how we go forward for next season.

But if we’re looking at £5m we need to be confident he can do it against them. By the end of the season it‘ll be six, and if he hasn’t done it by then, I wouldn’t spend that kind of money on him. Kent’s another issue. His performances shouldn’t be what determines if we sign Tillman, or not. JCDBigBear and graeme_4 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrangeRab 1,963 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Poor today but got equally poor service. By the time Jack has passed it back to Barasic and Tillman gets it, any good attacking shape has gone. Still think these OF game bypass him at the start. Would like to see him coming on and finishing these matches where he’ll get more time and space and show his abilities. He’s not hugely effective unless he’s getting touches around the penalty area. Today doesn’t change anything for me though. Still worth the money to sign him.

If we had CL money for the past few years I’d go for it but unless we can get a lot of money for the deadwood at the club we won’t have a huge amount to spend and that’s a lot on one player.

Clemdog 39,388 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Can do well to unlock defences when they’re sitting deep against us - which is the type of player we haven’t had for a while. Really struggles against an aggressive press and wants an extra touch or second on the ball. Despite having a huge amount of talent and, potentially, having a moment of magic I wouldn’t start him at Hampden. johanhentze, graeme_4 and delparlane 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
