I remember this forum slagging off one of our best players in recent years Paterson even before he eventually got his move. "Bad attitude" "Can't defend" "Can't cross a ball" "Can't play up front". Ended up a fan favourite in midfield and YPOY at his new club then one of their top scorers playing striker in the EPL 🤣 Currently top scorer at his new Championship club. Please come back Callum Patterson gets dogs abuse from most fans. V strange given hes a decent player. He needs to pick one position now though and just stay there. Switching all the time isn't helping him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the age limit for the development fee has been increased to 23. We were after Nando first but his agent wanted too much money for himself so we looked elsewhere ie Adebayo. Suspect agent came back and agreed our original offer or thereabouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact he was at Tynecastle today would also confirm that. Depends on results of COVID test taken this morning. As well as international clearance. Probability is he won’t make tomorrow night.

Might sound a bit mental to leave Steven Naismith out the side but we need to have the right balance and shoe-horning someone into a side because of who he is doesn't work. A bit like Berra, absolute dug meat but gets a game because he's Christophe Berra. Not suggesting Naismith is on Berra levels of crap but he's definitely lost that half-yard of pace.

It's not mental, it's been a long time since our captain put a couple of good performances together. Far too slow for his position, can't track back, can't tackle.

Boyce's last 6 games: QoS: 2 goals, 2 assists Celtic: 1 goal Ayr: 1 goal, 1 assist Arbroath: off injured after 20 Alloa: on for 30 minutes, goal wrongly disallowed Raith 2 goals A bit more than just the 2 goals there. To answer the question, I think Gnanduillet will be used from the bench initially, but I'd probably prefer Naismith to drop out of the two.

Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) First of all I get the feeling Boyce might be on his way - sold for a decent price.
