Flappy Hands Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 1 hour ago, Captain Canada said: According to stats I can find, it should be no surprise we're not scoring. The last season that MacLean, Wighton, Uche and Washington had at their previous clubs saw a combined 95 appearances and 23 goals. Since they've been with us, the figures are 83 appearances and 15 goals. Levein can bang on about the strikers not taking their chances but the figures say they didn't do it regularly at their previous clubs either. Wighton has 0 goals in his last 26 games. MacLean has 16 in 66. Washington has 0 in 18 club games. Uche has 22 in 68. A midfielder is a priority but surely we need to try and sell a striker (not Washington obviously) to free up a wage for someone with a better track record. Clearly we don't have cash to spend but there must be a free agent on reasonable wages whose record betters that of the strikers we have just now. Lafferty..

So did I but been told he’ll used more out wide or behind the strikers if we get him which I think we will by the end of the week. Other guy is apparently a great pedigree, international who has played at a top level down south. Not been involved in his national set up for ages so wanting to play week in week out to get back into it.

Ledley is who I’m guessing it’s been suggested to me as. Told he’s waiting to see if any English clubs can offer him a guarantee of playing every week before he accepts our offer. Been told not Scottish but British. Can’t see or think of any English player that fits the bill. I think its him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
