Crashnyploshnit Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 If we get £500K for him then sell. In fact if we get 500K of anything I would sell. Link to comment
the sheep Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Local lad that has loads of potential that has thus far been poorly managed in my opinion. Should have been put out on loan for a season or two at different teams earlier than he was. When he eventually went out on loan he was the best player in the Dundee team. That should have been his second season out on loan and we would have a very different player in our team. Spent three seasons on the bench waiting for McGinn to be dropped, only getting 5 or 10 minutes here and there. I think Derek is also failing to play him in his best position. He has the attributes to support the attack in the middle of midfield. A poor teams Maddison for want of a better description. Not saying he is as good as Maddison I am saying he could that type of player. He is never going to be a midfielder that is going to win any battles but I am sure he can develop into a direct, fast, attacking midfielder that chips in with his share of goals if used in the correct way.Difficult for this type of player to shine in a McInness team if I am being honest. Give him a run of games (5 or 6) in that attacking roll and let the wee man gain confidence and see where he goes from there. Lets face it we don't have that type of midfielder in the team and we are clearly not going to sign one this transfer window. Letting him go now would be a mistake. Support the local lads rant over.

Red_Rocket_1983 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 A talented young player. Unfortunately we play horrific hoofball. I'd imagine he'd thrive in an actual football team. This. Link to comment
torry_battery_ram Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Any money offered for him should be accepted. Reminds me of Cammy Smith, 1 good game in 10 Link to comment
the sheep Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 NRTLet me summarise Local lad warrants more timeBadly managed up until this point so we haven't seen his full potential.Play in the middle and not out wide.Should have been out on loan and coming back a confident young player when McGinn fucked off for greener grass.Confidence player so needs 5 or 6 games in a row from the start.If we let him go we will regret it.

Guest milne_afc Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 The local boys get too much criticism myth ius a load of shit.If they're good enough, or not shit, they'll be treated fairly. Wright is a fairy. Link to comment
KidCreole Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 https://www.modernfitba.com/blogs/2019/3/27/the-most-impactful-midfielders-in-the-scottish-premiership-this-season?rq=Scott%20Wright The statistics actually show he is a lot more effective than some of you may think. And as many clubs are using statistics as part of recruitment strategies its actually not hard to see why clubs would be interested in Scott. There is little doubt he has ability but the criticism many people have is he is too lightweight, His final ball delivery being poor and that he disappears in games. Interested team are likely to look at him though and think they can improve him as he is still a young player. And if he can produce these stats whilst not being on top of his game and still having such potential to improve is what makes him an attractive proposition for buying clubs.I reckon these clubs see D.M playing players out of position and failing to get the best out of them (Stewart prime example) and believe they can do a lot better hence recruiting via stats Link to comment

strachanmcgheegoal Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Ryan Jack apparently mixing a blend of controlling the midfield (which we all knew he could do in a team that’s got 90% of the ball) and making cutting forward passes. I’m sorry? Ryan where’s he hiding this week Jack making forward passes? What the fucks that all about? Another one to add to the questionable coaching list perhaps? Certainly Deek took three weeks to turn Ojo into the Jack I remember. Link to comment

starryfish Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Hearing he is out for the season, done his ACL... shite injury and poor timing for the loon Tough one for him to come back from, especially entering the final year of his contract. Would suggest we are probably well enough stocked in his position that he wouldn't need replaced just now. Link to comment

V for Vendetta Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 I must be optimistic as fuck today but perhaps this gives him the opportunity to spend some more time in the gym and building core strength before he's ready to rehabilitate the knee and come back. Link to comment
