richiehmfc Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Maybe for NI but at club level his recent stats aren't that great tbh. His record in his career is 1 goal every 2.5 games. If he kept that up and played 40 games for us this season, that's 16 goals. I'd be pleased with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDF01 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 He feeds of balls into the box. We have a habit of getting strikers and playing a game that doesn't suit them. We badly need width. We shouldn't be slagging our players , we are showing a worrying trend of getting on players backs very early It reflects poorly on us. I remember him running at defenders a lot when he played for the hvns, rather than being a target man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ1984 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 His record at Palermo is impressive, maybe just shows how diddy the majority of Serie A is these days mind. He played in Serie B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ1984 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 I remember him running at defenders a lot when he played for the hvns, rather than being a target man. More of a wide player with them.

Bowmans_Boot Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 May be a slightly OTT comparison, but if for example you see a porno actress in the street is it okay for you to just fire into her and expect her to be fine with it likes? Just because somebody get's their photo taken for a living doesn't give anyone the right to just start snapping away. In fact I'm pretty sure it's technically illegal (although seldom enforced) to take somebody's picture and share it publicly without express consent. When she's getting her photo taken by an agency, she's given them permission to do so. Quite stalkerish and creepy indeed. Just saying. Sorry for getting uppity, but the idea that a pretty girl out in public is just there for people to take pictures of and she should be expected to be okay with it all doesn't sit well with me. The porn actress comparison was extremely OTT!! The way society is now, if they see any famous/well known person then many will take a picture of them. Doesnt matter if the celeb is male or female.

Homme Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Great to see Kyle give his all for the team. Absolutely fantastic effort in defence today. Not what he signed up for but exactly the kind of attitude we were hoping to get from him. He will have plenty of games to score and assist today wasn't the day for it and he knew that.

John Findlay Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Lafferty for a tall guy is poor in the air when jumping from a standing start. Both him and Goncalves are poor at holding the ball up.

hueyview Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 He played for the shirt today. Although he didn't score if defending of the left was magnificent. Lafferty has great ability, can really test good defenses.... Having to track back and help with defense just lessens his usefulness.... As so many have said, 2 quality midfielder are needed, more so by each match that comes up....if only too allow the forwards to concentrate on hitting the net..
