He seems to have had a mixed time of things, and every time he plays he seems to be in a different role, but he’s looked right up for this. Armstrong has played very well since the restart. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Belter from Adams. He knew it was on as soon as the ball broke his way and executed it perfectly 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 This feels like a cup tie where a lower league team gets a jammy goal, then works their arse off clinging on for dear life 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never expected him to hit the ground running at Southampton tbh, when we sold him he had a stop start season with injury and wasn't even first choice for us. Always fancied him to make it eventually though as he has a decent attitude and isnt your stereotypical bammy type scottish footballer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Fair play to Southampton, given how shite the bottom 4 are there is no chance they are going down, but they are throwing their bodies into every challenge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of Scots think when they are at Celtic or Rangers that’s it and they spend to long there and don’t improve but it’s good to see players with the right attitude such as McGinn, Armstrong, Tierney, Fleck move to a stronger league and improve as players (and also get very rich) Edited July 5, 2020 by Grangemouth Bairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 This has been so good to watch. You just know it's going to be an absolute fucking howler of a mistake that gets Man City back in this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end it was probably better for him as despite us playing much the same gruelling number of games as championship teams at least a handful of those with us gets you european exposure and your not playing clogger ballers every week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add in that teams could stay up on 35 points this year would suggest the premier league isn't as anywhere near competitive as it is marketed.

And I suppose the key part, as you said, is he had offers. A lot of guys don’t get the option to move as nobody bids for them mate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did have a moment a bit like it there, when he was in space to just run it to the corner but tried to play a cute ball across to his teammate instead and gave it away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
