The answer is clearly creates 2 and scores 1 My guess is he meant ‘in a game’. ie would prefer to watch a striker with the same goal return who creates very little but is lethal or one who creates loads of chances but only converts a small proportion. Isn’t that hards concept to grasp (unless you take everything literally) Personally, id prefer one who created (and fluffed) loads of chances but still scored roughly the same amount of goals.

A striker who “creates” 10 chances themselves and misses 8 of them sounds absolutely fucking awful. I’ll take the striker who “creates” 2 chances and scores 1. Most chances are created for strikers by their teammates, not by them themselves, so my striker is scoring a barrel load with their conversion rate Good luck with your donkey striker AGM_72, Goofy The Scot, 6superbarry6 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dessers won’t be credited with the winning of a treble unless he started scoring basically all of our goals from now until the end of the season including winners at celtic park and in the cup final against them The chances of that happening based on what we have seen all season are basically zero. I won’t be deciding an entire squad are Rangers legends just because of a treble, which is apparently what you’re suggesting would happen, it’s just nonsense Bad Robot 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck me, Marvin Andrews still gets the hero treatment for being part of Helicopter Sunday and he was hopeless, players from memorable successful seasons are always put on a pedestal. beararse 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redemption80 173 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 It's been the 90s since i considered a player a legend, not sure if it's because the quality is dropping or me getting older and more cynical. Talking of Marvin, i kicked him out his house in my last job, never got to speak to him personally as his church dealt with everything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was also Kevin Drinkell who paid every month like a good boy and it was only me who was old enough to remember him. TBF, there is only so much you can say these days about a crazy cult church and not get into trouble and Marvin's guys were demented. Anyway Dessers, can we make a profit from him and get a replacement to beat his numbers. I don't feel confident at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al 55 9,508 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 The sad thing is any hopes of a treble, or double rely pretty much on him. We knew we needed a striker in Jan, and we got Silva 👍 BlueAvenger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
