invergowrie arab Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 When Armstrong stops pissing about coasting along in the SPFL these two will be the beating heart of our attacking midfield for a generation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peppino Impastato Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Nah Armstrong will be a squad player and would struggle badly in the premiership. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peppino Impastato Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 He's 24 ffs and still not made his debut. He's decent and will be handy but not an important player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peppino Impastato Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Yes but you don't know what you're talking about. They'll certainly both be capped by 24 anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a player to coast 70 games in the one month, England beckons. In all seriousness, this is the first time he's played with us centrally and its the best run of form he has been in. I really don't see what your point is bringing up his appearances, he was utterly shocking in all but about two games last season albeit he was playing LW. To suggest he's been coasting it is quite frankly only relative to the last 4 games. Edited December 12, 2016 by Contra 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit unfair to criticise Armstrongs performances under RD he may not have set the heather alight but 'utterly shocking' is hyperbole in the extreme, it's not like there were many standouts during that time. I'd never say he was coasting, that's one thing you can guarantee with Armstrong, he'll put in the effort. I think you are taking a joke comment by Invergowrie Arab too literally, a Utd fan exaggerating the potential of 2 ex-Utd players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair Armstrong was absolutely brutal bar a few games under Deila. He was almost unrecognisable compared to the player he was as Utd. You're right that no one really shone under Deila and shoehorning Armstrong out wide was a never going to work. He looks back to his best now that he's playing centrally. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has just gotten into the team playing centrally under Brendan Rodgers. He was utterly shocking last season with almost all of the team. Anyway best leave this topic on Gauld. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peppino Impastato Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 He turns 25 in 3 months, and apparently will be the beating heart of our attacking midfield for a generation. He better get a fuckin move on then as he's yet to make his debut. Hazard had 50 caps by his age. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
