Excluding Tav's penalties he's our top scorer and he's already matched or exceeded Morelos's record in his last 4 seasons.

He's not great, but he'll probably score more league goals this season than any striker we've had since we got back into the SPFL.

If he scored all the penalties that Tav has scored this season he would be on 27 goals which is a mental figure for lots of reasons when you think about it.

That’s all fine and well when he needs 5-6 chances to finish 1. We won’t and don’t get that luxury against them and some of our away fixtures. 
 

He might be a 1 in 2 or 3 game striker but the chances he needs to be that are the biggest issue

Dessers has a shot conversion rate of 20.7% in the SPFL. Shankland is sitting at 24.1% this season. Morelos shot conversion rate in his final season was 15.8% 

So for every 33 shots, Shankland will most likely score 1 more goal than Dessers.

Dessers' shot conversion isn't really the issue. Its the glaring opportunities he totally fucks up. To a degree, these howlers are offset by the ones he scores that nobody expects, but the almighty cock ups leave the lasting impression of him being a complete diddy.

I've fought his corner time and time again but he is a VERY frustrating player and does lack a strikers instinct when he has time to think.

We  do need better up front.

Waiting for a haircut this morning listening to a couple of scum supporters and they were both adamant they’d be delighted with a draw on the 7th.

Thought they’d be far more confident given our injuries and the lack of firepower but not how they see it.

Very slightly for goals.

18 goals and 3 assists in 39 for Colak

16 goals and 7 assists in 43 so far for Dessers

Better record in less games and less minutes. Dessers couldn’t lace Colak’s boots and Colak isn’t even that good

That doesn't mean he is good enough to lead the line for us. Oh how our standards have slipped.

But it does mean that saying he's not going to score goals during the run in and we're going to have to rely on others isn't true.

Given that he’s 6 behind Morelos’ best, with 9 games left, that’s not happening.

Colak was the best finisher at the club since Defoe. Ryan Kent was a better finisher than Dessers.

Best finisher since Defoe? Defoe left in 2022, Colak joined in 2022. So he was the best finisher, since the last finisher we had?
