slippers Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Would expect him to get some decent minutes before the end of the season IF we can pick up 4/6 points in the first couple of fixtures. Link to comment

At the same time IF he is actually good enough. If you are comparing him with the other Glass signings the guess is he won't be good enough either. Link to comment
huncunts Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Clearly a PR follow the stradijee signing. Will probably be dogshit like Hernandez. Link to comment
Don_Corleone Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I would imagine he'll get some game time although clearly the first choice midfield 3 is McCrorie, Ferguson and Barron, none of whom are going to be dropped unless they get injured or suspended. He's certainly got a physical presence which Goodwin will like, but the guy said himself he was playing in teams in the US who were winning pretty much every week and he was the star man - it's a big change to come to this. If he gets 30 minutes or so in most of the games before the end of the season it'll stand him in good stead for next season. No point playing guys like Ojo, Jenks and McGeouch who aren't going to be here and who we know are useless - give this guy a chance and see if he's any use. Link to comment
Tord31 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 any update from those posters who also remain as supporters? Whats this guy like? Link to comment

I thought he was decent, good bit of strength, some good pieces of play, not terrible anyway, worth carrying on with him in the next two matches anyway, could be argued we fell out of the game when Ojo replaced him although I’d say it was more to do with McCrorie going into midfield and Jasper coming on for Hibs.

Ten Caat Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Didn't look too bad at all. Few nice touches albeit the first half of this match was played like your typical dead rubber. Deserves another start in midweek. Certainly not the useless haddie that some on here had speculated in the past few weeks. Still needs to get a full pre-season behind him before we can really judge though Link to comment
Redmist1903 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 The new Jim Bett. Well the new Dylan McGeouch or Teddy Jenks more likely. Should be a decent enough squad player anyway, tidy enough on the ball. Link to comment

Broken_Glass Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 He did nothing of any note but also did nothing wrong. Possibly wanted/expected more time on the ball which he won't get in Scottish football. Bland uninspiring debut. Surely he's got more to give in the coming season once he gets the pace of the game here. Certainly not a Lewis Ferguson replacement based on today. Link to comment

I actually didn't expect anything and to be honest he coped better than I expected. Will have to see what "sort of midfielder" he is. Box to box? Attacking? Defensive? He just sort of floated about and did nothing of note but as I say didn't do anything wrong either. Time will tell. Link to comment

He is, by most accounts from his coaches, a very good passer of the ball. Why wouldn't you expect a very good passer of the ball to create chances with those passes? Link to comment
1903Fitba Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Clearly head and shoulders above the rest. Wouldn’t be surprised to see this guy go for 10 million +. Absolute baller. The American Zidane. Link to comment

Schapenneuker Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 I think he was pushed further forward today than he's probably comfortable with. Due of course to the fact that we have feck all strikers on our books that are interested in playing. It was a bit of an ask for a kid straight out of US college to form a telepathic striking partnership with the perenially injured Watkins. And he didn't. Tbh, I think Jenks would have given us more dynamism from midfield, but obviously Goodwin just wants to start players who will be here next season. Link to comment
Bomber Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 I think he'll do fine good on the ball not match fit so he faded a bit second half, showed enough first half for me to think with a full pre season he'll make decent addition to the squad. Link to comment

It doesn’t matter who’s playing because none of them want to go forward and support the attackers. We’ve Barron and Ferguson sitting on the centre backs taking the ball off them spraying pointless passes. We need some pace in midfield badly. Link to comment

Yeah, since Hedges left we have no attacking zip in midfield at all. The only person with any pace in the side is Hayes, and even he's getting slower by the day. Yesterday was the classic square peg in a round hole side, with Watkins the lone striker (a role he's wholly unsuited to) and the likes of Polvara trying to support him. Link to comment
Betty Swallicks Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Did ok. Faded as the game went on. 6/10. Link to comment

KidCreole Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Nae bad for a first start and not even a full game, i assume he was subbed as he is not yet match fit and having recently had a hernia op its wise to ease him in, defiantly got a good player that will improve as he goes, I recon we will get a tidy sum for him in a couple of seasons time when the epl come knocking Link to comment
