In fact, Colak would have been on 20+ goals in this side Colak has scored 3 goals in 17 games this season, so hard to say how many he would have scored for us.

There was a point one of the St Johnstone players just bounced off him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamie 4,851 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Guys bloody infuriating. Just put the ball in the net. Or at the very least make the goalkeeper work. Clean through once is bad, but twice with no shot on target is criminal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven33jackie 1,963 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Dessers is a natural number nine and gets into good positions by anticipating play waiting for the ball to come to him. Silva in the other hand uses lots of energy chasing the ball around the park. As frustrating as Dessers is, I believe he will ultimately give a greater return than Silva. cstamomusa 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDB14 2,778 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 He just needs to shoot much earlier and stop overthinking every chance. Shoot on sight. His movement is excellent but he has no killer instinct. If he starts shooting within 3/4 touches instead of trying to walk everything in then we will see better conversion rates.

I think that goes for too many of our players. Lawrence had a chance but took forever in a day to set himself to shoot. For dessers I still think he is trying too hard to impress. But then so would I if every time I scored and looked good I was dropped for the next game 😂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Colak consistently finished his chances and Dessers consistently fucks up his chances. Would pick Colak over Dessers every day of the week Not going to overexaggerate how good Colak was either but there was a feeling at the time he was here that, sure he won't create things out of nothing, but if a chance fell to him then it was going into the net. And not just tap ins or poaches either, some proper strikes and some nice plays like his second vs St Mirren in the 4-0 match etc. WilliamMunny, stobbinnein and graeme_4 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Colak had played in this team he would score a load more goals than Dessers. Colak wasn’t perfect but, he was a very good finisher. Despite Dessers recent upturn in form , it is clear that he is never going to be a prolific goal scorer. It is a shame that Colak got injured and then never seemed to be favoured by Beale.

EngineeRFC 233 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Either way, I hope we move him on in the summer. He's just not what we need. Yes I understand when you have one striker the other players have to contribute but when playing one striker we really need him to be as clinical as possible. I fear for games in which we don't have a large amount of chances. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why he’s held in higher regard. If he’d been retained and had played the same number of games as Dessers has this season I’ve absolutely no doubt he would’ve had a lot more goals. saintbob1969 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's what we're likely missing the most atm. EngineeRFC 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post psb07158 33,602 Posted February 19 Popular Post Share Posted February 19 Colak wouldn’t have got into any of the 1v1 situations Dessers got into yesterday tbf Dessers movement is far better than Colak’s was, but when he misses the way he does it makes me question what the point of having such good movement is Bluekev, Rangers_no1, its_an_extender and 3 others 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
