There are black and white tinted glasses and then there is this. Che Adams has spent most of the last five years in the English Premiership! I like Che Adams but Shankland at least knows where the goal is. Adams does a lot for the team but he isn’t really a striker 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trogdor Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Wait... is Che Adams the Scotland NT's Mark McKenzie? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goal every 4.6 Games. Lawrence Shankland: 45 Appearances and 25 Goals. Goal every 1.8 Games.

I think Shankland suffers from that move to Belgium, if he had been at a team that weren't a total bin fire he would probably get more of a look in. The fact he's playing for Hearts and not either of the OF or an English Tier 1-2 club will go against him perception wise, he will be one of those guys that gets chucked on in friendlies / dead rubbers or if we have a major injury crisis unless he gets a move to a bigger club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone seeing this that isn’t an Ayr United fan would absolutely find this argument hilarious. You are comparing someone’s goalscoring form in the Scottish Premiership to that of someone in the English Premiership. It is utterly wild. Che Adams scored plenty of goals in the English Championship btw. I love Shankland but he isn’t close to Che Adams. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrunitedfw Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 I love Lawrence Shankland but trying to argue that he is a better option than Che Adams is genuinely mental. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanayr1987 Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Btw I wasn’t suggesting shankland is a better player just that I think he would score more goals than Adams. Adams does a lot more for the team and is integral to the way Scotland play/set up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Shankland played with Rangers or Celtic he'd be pushing 35 goals a season and would be getting caps galore . Adams is a turnip in goal scoring terms . I doubt he's even Championship class . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itzdrk Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Lawrence Shankland is a fine striker but has no pace so isn't suited to elite level football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea what your point is. I was talking about Che Adams scoring a certain amount in the English Championship, as the original point was that he was a “turnip” goal scoring wise - even in the championship. Shankland nearly as good as Kyogo up next then… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
