jamboinglasgow Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 He has scored 4 goals in his last 16 league games. I did think when they turned down the second bid in January (when he was already on a low scoring spell) that they should have accepted it and used the money.

1953 Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 How can it be that Nesbitt and all their other multi million pound players fail to turn up for a winnable cup final. Why if they're that good did none of them come out in the second half and get fired into a Saints side who were running out of steam. That game should have been a godsend for these players to show what they can do and justify their price tags. Looked like they hibsed that too.

Tynecastlesmychurch Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Look hibs lost so I’m happy to admit that I think he’s a decent player. Just my opinion. That being said he didn’t turn up when hibs really needed him too. But you could say that about their whole squad today. Barring the keeper saving a penalty and then the rebound.

It will be interesting indeed as his current trajectory says that after initially scoring well defenders worked out his game, classic later season slump for some forwards. Next season will be the proof of the pudding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rods Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Like many of the Leith Globetrotters he is vastly overrated. I called out Doig on another thread and was shot down by a couple of posters. He is utter dung can’t defend, can’t pass, can’t control a football, can’t cross. Has a good engine to get up and down but zero attributes of a semi decent footballer.

Against mediocre defenders there's a good chance he'll score, but he doesn't have any stand out attributes that make him look like an international or a player at a higher level than he is now. He's been a good signing and is a good age, but I don't see the hype at all. Maybe if they're lucky they could get 2m like Livvy got for Dykes, but Dykes was a better more proven player. Hibs invested what 250k in him so I can see why they want a return but you don't need to spend that in Scotland to get a 14 goal striker.

Definitely a good first season. Not international or 2-4m class though. Debatable if it's even 250k class, given many players have arrived in the Premiership on free transfers and scored that many, even for us! If they do get a big fee that's a good result though but not exactly helpful in a team building sense unless they reinvest the fee wisely.

With good defenders you don't see them steaming in to tackles because they don't need to thanks to their positional sense or their speed - neither of which Porteous seems to have. Another one I simply don't get the hype about, or believe the figures being quoted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of his goals coming earlier in the season suggests to me a striker who made an impact then was figured out by the defenders in the league. Happens to quite a few strikers, Uche made a big impact (maybe not as much in goals) earlier in his first season, then defenders figured him out and he was never the same.
