That will be the captain of the team at the top table.
Who doesn't start every game. Mctominay is obviously a better player than him.now.

Saw him live against Costa Rica and Russia. Watched him on TV quite a number of times.
He's a good player at championship level but he has quite a bit to go at top level despite his price tag.
You obviously don't like naismith but the guy has played at the top over a prolonged period and there is a reason for that.
But naismith isn't a good player at.championship level anymore is he? There's a reason he plays for hearts now.

Nobody will believe me but I shared a lift with Prince Andrew and his aide once while working. He was very rude and dismissive, and sighed.and made his aide top me a.fiver, which is very stingey.

They cant be compared like for like their games are totally different and have different attributes offer differences to both clubs and country
Of course you can that was.used as a criticism of mcburnie, well.he's definitely stronger than naismith isn't he?

Sheffield United had 20m to spend this summer and they chose not to use it on "Shonklund" or the ghost of Steven Naismith. If only they'd read this forum or talked to some biased Teuchters.
Two years ago naismith scored zero goals and got three games.In the league.mcburnie scored 25 in last season.

No but he's a more intelligent player. He would have released the ball quickly, made clever angles to avoid it becoming a physical battle.
Mcburnie isnt able to do that at the moment.
I think there's a place for Mcburnie in the squad, but only when we are swinging crosses in or going direct with ten to go.
How many times have you watched mcburnie? Though you make your case well tbf.

Hes lanky, his body shape alone tells you he's probably not very strong. Watching him get pushed off the ball by Russian centre halves confirmed this for me.
Quite mobile - did you see him on that breakaway towards the end of the Cyprus game?
The fact he keeps turning up suggests he's committed, so doubt that's the reason. Clarke just appreciates what Naismith brings to the team I would think.
Those russan cbs are monsters. Do you think naismith would have outmuscled them?

He is neither of those things. He's a gangly big boy who has average pace and average strength.
He is good in the air though.
Our striking options are not great and Mcburnie has shown he can score goals in the championship but he hasn't looked capable in any of the games he has started of being our cf in our style of play.
I think Naismith is the most intelligent forward we have with clear leadership skills and obviously our manager with his decades in the game thinks so too.
He does not have average strenght he's very strong and quite mobile. Much more so than naismith. You have no idea why he's picked naismith maybe he thinks mcburnie isn't fully committed.

Whilst i dont necessarily disagree about mctominay over jack, to say he is one of best midfielders in europe is a bit farThis season he's become one of the best midfielders in the epl, that makes him rightnup.there. He'd pretty much get a game for anyone except barca or real now.

Why pass a bill that does absolutely nothing? It's obviously just a PR stunt for the SNP election campaign.
Any potential future NHS privatision in Scotland will require either a majority in favour in either Holyrood or Westminster. In that situation this bill would be redundant.
Well it's fucking woeful PR to vote against it then. It requires a simple majority at Westminster, a majority that may well exist in four weeks.

Yet his game gave us cajoling and harassing defenders pulling players up the park talking to players winning free kicks linking well with McGinn more and thats all we can ask for. Clarke started him in both games and there is obviously a reason for that.
Look he's shite accept it.

Im not anti McBurnie i want him to do well its irrelevant what he done last season in the championship as with any other striker in our squad we are talking about there here and now and next March so need to pick players in form he has started less than half of tbe games in the EPL this season 1 goal. We need to agree to disagree right now Naismith done a tremendous job the last 2 games doing what he does best, who ever leads the line in March has my full backing to get us to where we need to be. Their games are entirely different the form players come March will be picked
Well if we're talking about the here and now naismith has played 37 minutes of club football in the last three months.

I don't know the details of this but it's a stupid idea anyway.
It's like the idiots in America passing laws outlawing Sharia Law.
Aye so vote with the Tories against a bill opposing the sale of the nhs. Good one.

And that is what we are doing with McBurnie at the present time,Naismith is a defenders nightmare doesn't give a minutes peace wins free kicks pulls the players up the park McBurnie had not done that in any game for Scotland as yet. And the teams we can face in the semi are not all that. If McBurnie gave half the work ethic Naismith gave in the last 2 games then maybe just maybe but at present not for me
They're much better than the teams naismith has played the last couple of games. I would say he's a defender's dream, no pace or mobility at all, can't run behjnd.you, will spend all game right in front of you where you can see where he is at all times. You can step up and press as he has no threat running beyond you, completely ineffective in the air, not very strong, not a prolific goalscorer, not even an out and out centre forward yet that's where we.play.him. If I was a defender I'd love to be playing against him, he's a total dream.
Compare to mcburnie,.6-3, strong,.mobile, good in the air, can drop off or run behind, rattled 25 last season in the.championship. Defenders would.be much more worried about.mcburnie.

Mourinho got a worse Man Utd squad to 2nd in the league, and when you look at their decline since he left it shows that the job he did there perhaps wasn't as bad as made out. It does seem a strange move from Levy though considering Mourinho is a 'cheque book manager' and Levy is about as far from a 'cheque book chairman' as it's possible to get. Either Mourinho will have to change and focus on developing from within, or Levy will have to cough up.
It's almost like it's Levy's last gamble for silverware. This team is coming towards the end if it's cycle and it's a last shot with a proven winner before the team gets broken up.
Decline since he left? He left them utter.shite and outsider the CL places, they are trying to.fix the mess.he left behind right now.

See when Corbyn was "negotiating" with the IRA, who was he reporting back to in the Thatcher government? Who was he representing? Who did he take his instructions from?
Truth is, he wasn't negotiating as he had no authority to do so. It's like my cat going to the local corner shop to negotiate for Whiskas.
Who.said.He was.negotiating?

He has started less than half of their games in the EPL scored once, played 9 times for Scotland full team and not scored as yet in my opinion at the moment i would have Naismith for Scotland his work ethic is immense over the last 2 games he was cajoling the rest of the team pulling them up the park, always harassing the opposition winning free kicks continually in just 2 games he seems to be getting an understanding with McGinn and its paying off, i have yet to see any of that from McBurnie in a Scotland jersey. The price tag is irrelevant it doesnt gwt you goals or give you that work ethic Naismith has brought in the last 2 games, he may come good down the line but as it stands Naismith for me as starter.
Not for me, he's a vastly.inferior played who will be entirely ineffective and a complete passenger against any semi decent side. Mcburnie hasn't had a run yet, look at Palmer and mcginn rtf not great for a while then get settled in look really good.
Mcburnie just.needs that, naismith is utterly finished any prospective opponent in the playoffs would be delighted to face him as he offers nothing and is no threat at all, might as well be playing ten men.

Shanklands scored loads
Aye three or four levels lower than mcburnie plays, he'd get a bucket at the level shankland plays at too.

Has mcburnie actually scored this season?
I wish the guy was good, but hes hardly ripping it up in the premiership eh
Once yes. He ripped up the championship last season. How have our other strikers fared in comparison?

Oh really, is that why he was binned by a championship club two years ago? After playing three games and scoring no.goals?
