Desp Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 I like to see young Scottish players come through and do well, no matter what club they are at. There's no doubt Barrie McKay excelled last season, however it was in the Championship. He's been nothing other than bang average in the Premiership. I don't think even the Rangers would argue against that. He played fairly well against Celtic on Hogmanay, but other than that? Six million!? This is on basis of a training session against a Bundesliga side? Unless we're talking in pence, then that's not happening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a decent Premiership winger, maybe he'll get better, but at the moment I wouldn't say he was any more effective than the likes of Jonny Hayes. Aye, he's got potential but so far in his career he's doing nothing to suggest he's reached the same level as a good Premiership player like, say, Jamie Walker, never mind one of the best players in the division like Hayes. Six million pounds indeed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just a tweet about the £6m figure about 15 minutes after I posted it in here. In fairness he probably just read it in the paper!

DA Baracus Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Ewan; Rangers died and the current incarnation is a new club. You and the rest of the bigoted Rangers fans let the old club die. Hopefully you all let the nee club you now follow die as well. Get it right up you. Everyone despises Sevco and it hurts you lot every single day. You care very much, which makes it all the more delicious. Sevco and their fans are an utter cancer on Scottish football and Scottish society (same applies to Celtic and their fans). We don't need Sevco and we don't want Sevco. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiG Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 I've made the mistake of mentioning this on Twitter. Now getting Rangers fans saying that Hayes has never performed v Celtic, McKay has destroyed them twice which shows he is better and Hayes is massively over rated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading people replying to Ewan Murrays feed - basically as McKay did well against Lustig in one game then he should be worth a lot. Also he destroyed Callum Paterson in a match as well! £££££ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanky_ffc Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 I've heard that RB Leipzig are quite big on using analytics in their recruitment, so there's a chance that McKay's underlying numbers are better than his performances suggest. Burke was supposedly a big statisitcal outlier for his age, but you could see that translating onto the pitch with his performances earlier in the season for Forest. I wouldn't say McKay has been anywhere near that level and he doesn't look physical enough for Bundesliga or the demanding style of play under Hassenhutl. The more likely expanation is that they played a friendly recently and the DR need some rumours to fill their column inches and potentially drum up business for their pals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Man Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 I just took a quick screenshot of Barrie McKay's Wiki page to share his stats to laugh at. Someone has been editing it and changed his current team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to make my Twitter private after I posted a jokey comment about Rangers not being relegated to Div 3 and being a new team (kicked out and then brought back - amazed Coral haven't approached me to be on their side) and ended up with about 20 Gers fans Tweeting me links to Fifa websites and newspaper reports saying that it was the same side etc. It's good fun to see how many bites you can get! Right who got to Wiki first? Barrie McKay (born 30 December 1994) is a Scottish professional football player who has recently been sold to Red Bull Leipzig for €75 million with a 10% sell on fee and the Scotland national team. McKay can play either as a striker or as a winger. Dee Man and I on the same wave length! Edited January 20, 2017 by The Minertaur 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
