ebobsboy Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 You wouldn't mind it if there was another striker still to come in. But given he's been given the no.9 jersey suggests he's starting. I'm no sure about this one. IF we were in for Brian Graham then this is a bit of a come down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glasgow_bairn Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 You forget that he wasn't great in the championship. But he's dropping down another level, where in all honesty, any bang average striker should be able to bag 10-15 goals a season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the overwhelming reviews from Thistle fans saying he's pish are a little concerning. McGlynn wasn't kidding when he said he was struggling to find a striker. He's been struggling to find a striker for a while now. He also has a habit of playing the shite one of his options because he thinks it suits how he expects his team to play. As long as the striker works hard and links play he won't be worried about them not scoring goals, I'd get used to that with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ecosse83 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 A lot of Falkirk fans writing him off already, have any of you actually seen the boy play before? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 (edited) We're gonna be pining for Marcus Haber and Taylor Morgan within 3 games aren't we? Maybe even Rory Boulding. Edited July 20, 2022 by Ranaldo Bairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Disappointed he's not available for tonight, he didn't perform well at Partick but hopefully that's just a minor blip in his soon to be glorious career. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grangemouth Bairn Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Does anyone genuinely know anything about him ? I googled him and all I could find was a report on a game where he scored a hat-trick in a game for Rangers B team vs Alloa ? That suggested he was quite powerful so might suit McGlynn’s style if he can hold the ball up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

18BAIRN76 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Tbf no one here is really writing him off at all, just pointing out what Partick fans are saying while hoping he does well for us 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was obviously just getting used to the scottish way of playing and the weather, just like all the foreign players that take a year to get going down south... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im all for that bashing to start after 4-5 games of turgid shit right enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC1982 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I think we’ve seen enough so far this season to know it sometimes just takes the right manager for things to click. Hopefully McGlynn and Alegria click and we see some of the ability that convinced Sevco to sign him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t the only sitter he missed either. At an attempt at “constructive” criticism - he runs about a lot and puts himself about. He also got himself into a few decent positions to miss aforementioned sitters, but he’s got no composure whatsoever and is technically really poor. He might not be quite as terrible dropping down a level, but if he’s starting up front for you this season I’d say that’s a big worry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
