I can imagine Neilson would love to get rid of him as he’s everything that he isn’t. If players can’t be arsed listening or take advice from a player who has achieved more in the game than 99% of them have, or ever will, then I suggest they are the ones who need to gtf, certainly not Steven Naismith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to tell but if Smith, Souttar and Hickey are in line there, then Berra is playing Eduoard onside. Nevertheless it wasn't a penalty. The 2nd one is because the midfield didn't win the 2nd ball and yes Berra makes a mistake but the midfield should have done better. All true too. As the captain, that's up to Berra to organise. A bit of a calamitous affair to be honest for both goals and actually for some of the other chances they had too.

Wouldn't surprise me if his 4 year deal included the possibility of giving up playing at some point but that the salary would remain intact. Very Levein-esque I would suggest. Not having a pop at Naismith, btw. Quality player but there's absolutely no doubt that his days as an on field asset are numbered. Definitely, I think his influence is important but not at £5k a week. Ideally a new reduced contract to play sparingly and move into coaching. Hopefully Damour will find a club, even if we have to pay a small fee to get him out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would walk into any other team below old firm. Will still score goals Fair point. He would, but then you need to ask how many minutes you’re getting for how much money. If you get 15-20 starts out him now you’re doing very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pasquale for King Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) 17 minutes ago, Absolute Scenes said: I stand by my initial opinion in that Berra cost us both finals. Whilst you can argue Souttar did this and that, he's where he is supposed to be. Berra doesnt get close enough to Eduard meaning Bobby is more inclined to stay in his goal, and fresh air swipes a simple ball to him. Souttar cant be blamed for the fact that Eduard is then one on one, when its Berra's mistake that got him there. Anyway this is a transfer thread and dont want derail it Any signings please I disagree but agree with derailing the thread. We all need a new signing to talk about no doubt about that.

I obviously heard him doing at home games but he actually gave me a sare heid. He was on at “Walker” the whole game and he played well that day. Halkett was especially bad at almost doing the exact opposite of what his captain was asking him to do. If they’re not listening to him with his experience, personality and charisma I think it’s unlikely they listen to the manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackd51 Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Hi just having a wee spy on the interweb and noticed that some mystery Scottish club is tracking Norwegian Patrick Berg CM 23yr old ? Has big James been sorting out his small change again ? From what I can see his club is looking for 1.5 mil and he's on about £1500 quid a week I KNOW IS A LONG SHOT BUT YOU NEVER KNOW .

Guest ToqueJambo Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 44 minutes ago, Batistuta87 said: First goal Souttar was napping. If he'd known where Edouard was he could have tracked him into the box and Bobby wouldn't have came out. Reckless on Bobby's part, but Berra should have given him a shout to let him know he was coming across to cover. If he did and Bobby has ignored the shout then that's his fault but a well timed tackle from Berra (which he's perfectly capable of) and the threat is dealt with. Bobby should also have saved the pen. 2nd goal was all Berra. Basically blame his injury for that one, because if he hadn't done his hammy previously, he might have been able to stretch to block the through ball. Every goal involves one or more errors at some point in the build up to it. Berra did play a large part in the 2-1 cup final defeat ad he cost us a lot of goals latterly in his career - just was nowhere near the player he was before his injury - but the real reason we lost that the way we did was Haring having to go off, same way the reason we bombed in the LC semi was Naismith getting injured very early doors. In both cases those very key players going off disrupted our plan, caused uncertainty in our team and gave Celtic encouragement. Berra without Haring in front of him was an easy target for Celtic. Naismith off removed our main attacking weapon and - at that time - talisman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the 2020 final, Kingsley and Wighton score their penalties and it's game over. No-one single handedly cost us those games. Agree entirely. This anti-Naismith trend is tiresome and totally OTT.
