NaturalOrder74 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 20 goal a season striker alongside Naismith Washington and Walker, that’s an absolute force of an attacking team, I understand the midfield has to be a priority but how anyone could say no to Lafferty because he might upset the dressing room is a load of pish, we’re desperate for a Lafferty in our team for the big games against hibs / Celtic etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A comparison would be two similar type players, which of course they are not. I read it as... did we know that Skacel would be as prolific on his return to Hearts. See what you are saying. Lucky Rudi was don't think Lafferty would as he said he was a poor trainer and didn't get picked by Gerrard. If he loves them as much as he said why didn't he get his finger out on the training field!!!! His season with us was a rare amount of goals for him when you look at his other seasons goals wise. Personally I think he is finished because if his desire was poor at Ibrox what's he going to be like elsewhere. The other big factor is personalities. Rudi was loved by everyone but Lafferty is disruptive and hard work to keep on track. Added onto that the likes of Berra and Naismith don't like him and we want a tight knitted squad.

We've all had work colleagues we can't be bothered with, football's no different. Gary Mackay and Levein didn't get on. Everyone would need to sit down and throw their tuppence-worth in and see how it pans out. On the subject of wher he might end up....not sure McInnes at Aberdeen would want anything to do with him, if he didn't re-sign for us then he may well end up at Easter Rd (and score winners against us). My bet would be the likes of Motherwell. They would be my favoured choice followed by Kilmarnock.

Four of the 19 were in the league cup group stage. 12 goals is all he managed in the league, and not a single assist. No real reason to expect he'd even match that if he came back, given he's a couple of years older and doesn't exactly seem to have been a dedicated pro as far as looking after himself's concerned in the meantime.

However if it's true that Naismith and Laffeerty don't get on and we could only have one of them it would be Naismith all day everyday Well I think there is time to sort that when Naismith and Washington are fully fit and hopefully a couple of decent midfielders come in. Yeah I do think we could do with someone else in as well that can score goals but think that is very unlikely tbh. It would be a real bonus if we did though. There is a chance, a big chance that Lafferty wouldnt would repeat that number of goals again when you look at his overall scoring record throughout his career. Plus he claims he loves Rangers too bits but didn't do enough at training to deserve more game time. A really strange admission that makes him look a bit daft. Why didn't he up his attitude and desire if he was so desperate to play for his beloved Sevco. I personally think a close dressing room will unite the club and players will go that extra mile for their team mates. If they all ******* hate each other don't think that would happen imo.

Especially when the guy keeping him out of the NI team hasn’t had a chance to prove himself. Heard from a good source that his “drop in wages” was due to Rangers settling his personal financial debt to Ann Budge, something he used as a bargaining tool to get to Rangers. Very selective quotations coming from the Lafferty camp there. Ann didn’t appreciate being blackmailed so I’d say there may well be another pretty important no vote.
