Muff Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Because I'd play 4-5-1 and Boyd cannot play in that role, Miller is shite and Lafferty has done pretty well in his few games upfront. This is not the type of game for Boyd, his form and performances have been pish and Miller has been awful for 16 games on the trot now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papaguy51 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 He's done well in the time he's played up front. It's not Lafferty's fault that Smith has a penchant for playing players out of position. How would Boyd fare on the left of midfield? I think his goal tally would suffer terribly, just as Lafferty's does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornelius11 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I think lafferty shows alot of promise, remember hes still a youg lad and has bags of talent. Hes been solid for his country and I think if he got a good run of games he would become a good striker for us. His last few appearances have impressed me.

I too think he just MIGHT be ok in the long run - I also admit in the last couple of games he's played in he's looked OK, My point is more about why not so long ago a large majority on here thought he was shite & now want him into side for arguably the biggest league game of the season so far .

papaguy51 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 You'll say Boyd's earned his place with his goal tally this season, but he's our top scorer every year and yet he just doesn't do it against Celtic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 He's always been shite on the left, at Darlington, Northern Ireland and at Burnley - he's also looked pish on the left for us. However, put him upfront and he looks a different player. Miller, Boyd, McCulloch, Adam, Broadfoot have all been given chances, surely Lafferty deserves one? Boyd played in the last Old Firm, is playing Lafferty upfront a bigger risk? IMHO, it's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On past old-firm games I understand all the arguments about Boyd not playing - I just don't reckon Lafferty has shown enough yet for his inclusion, He won't carry any more of a goal threat than Boyd in my opinion.

I agree Papaguy & I think the goal record argument has been used once too often, I am just surprised at how many have changed opinions & think Lafferty can do the business for us. If the big man plays I hope he has a blinder & shocks me !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
