SM Sheffield Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 1 hour ago, Mr Rabbit said: I’ve seen a few comments from their fans saying he’s sh*te or that they don’t want to keep him which surprised me. Realise you didn’t have a great end to the season last year but wanted to understand what changed as I thought he was your only goal threat? Paterson hasn’t been great if I’m honest but he was one of many players in the squad last season that were like that. Not the worst player but ok at best. I’m not sure he will be a regular starter even in League 1 next season. Paterson definitely suffers from not really having a position nailed down, he has played everywhere which is to his own detriment, and I don’t think the manager rates him as a forward. I don’t really see where he fits in the system Moore has planned but Windass has just got injured so Wednesday are short of forwards. To be honest I think if a reasonable offer came in the club would happily accept it so they could get him off the wage bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ToqueJambo Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 1 hour ago, Debut 4 said: Excuses? It’s an opinion on another team and you’ll find there’s been plenty bemoaning(prior to Neilson’s current spell) during the last few years of how our forwards lacked service from what was behind them. I think people see we look more dangerous and have better players out wide to provide better threat and service, currently. Also, criticism and praise fluctuates from one moment to the next in football. Some poor wee souls can’t accept or handle that. Just get a bit triggered with the love-ins for the likes of Cummings and Shankland (who are still after all these years unproven at a good level) at the same time as writing off players like Gnando or McEneff after a dozen games.

Rick Sanchez Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Paterson would be a quality over quantity Swiss army knife. RWB and push Smith inside. Cover for Boyce up front. Right winger to win diagonal headers and flick ons for Boyce when pace isn't working. I'd even trust him at centre back tbh. Never happening just now. I did hold out hope when I thought he could get out of his contract when they weren't being paid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibrahim Tall Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 (edited) 2 hours ago, The Wrinkly Ninja said: I simply compared Shanklands record in the premiership for his current club to Boyce’s record for his current club. I know how many Boyce scored for Ross County. You should maybe have checked before you claimed he scored 20+ for two years. I stick by the argument that both Shankland and Boyce bring more to a team than just goals and that Shankland would be a good signing for our squad. “You do realise Boyce scored ~20 a season for Ross County for 2 years in the Premier? ” ‘~’ doesn’t mean ‘+’. By all means keep digging that hole you’re in though. Boyce being as ‘unproven’ as Shankland is nonsense whatever ending you want to stick on it. Be aswell claiming Shanklands more proven in the SPL than Messi. Edited August 4, 2021 by Ibrahim Tall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's definitely good enough in the air to play RCB in a back 3, and be able to break forward like Tierney does from LCB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a time when Scotland is desperate for strikers Shankland isn't even in the squad. Boyce would be first choice for Scotland if we were lucky enough to have him. Edit: If we sign Shankland I reserve the right to change my opinion. We would be his first big club though so the best test of his ability.

Green mob was to stand in front of them and salute. second was he would run and jump and at the same time pump one hand off his chest. Naismith: Makes a bubble-bursting motion Walker: loves a run to the corner flag Boyce: Makes a shape with his hand and fingers to the crowd, looks like an "A" or something? Just a few haha. But then i'm weird when it comes to celebrations. Like see when players would stick their thumb in their mouth, i used to go off my nut at them. totally ruined the great goal they just scored., Best of all was Dr Funk, and wondering what daft celebration he was going to do whenever he scored.

Bongo 1874 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Callum Patterson would have to take a huge pay cut to join us, and we certainly wouldn't be the only team interested in him from Scotland or England. But if and it's a big if 😉 if james wanted a guaranteed 3rd place finish this season, then signing Dr funk would just about guarantee it😁. And he would certainly be a better option upfront than Gnanduillet, and he's a very versatile player can play midfield and defence too.
