Kris Commons

Offt looks like he's ready for a square go.

 

no he doesn't why make up something

 

* me he makes Kris Boyd look like twiggy, he looks like hes put on about 5 stone, check they fat rolls about his knees

 

Could do with him back. Guy could drag us through until we get this squad sorted. Id give him a free roll behind 2 strikers to do as he pleases, which is create goals from nothing.

 

Given Commons struggles with keeping the weight down, I think that's the last thing he needs.

 

Your forget hes still here, he seems to be injured every pre season the fat *

 

Glasgow roll or Swiss roll?

 

I know wee Commons isn't the player he was, when we brought him to Parkhead, but still a player we should be hanging onto. The skills are still there, and these skills could be good enough to win a good few games for us. Lubo was 33 when we signed him, and nobody will tell me, he was a failure.

 

ffs

 

Commons n lubo cannot be compared. squad player at best now has been for atleast a year. Done a right turn for us but no longer I'm afraid

 

Agreed although not im not always his biggest fan, and even then i don't feel he has regressed that much tbh, like I feel people are assuming that's the case because he's 33 he must be but the regression doest always happen that fast if injuries are avoided He was more useful in Europe last season than he was in his other seasons, I think he was just a lot more suited to lennon than ronny and no doubt rodgers. He could still go down the championship and knock in 15 goals for a team easy

 

Can you elaborate on this? do you have any evidence? can you also provide any form of proof to suggest that A. that weight has affected his performance and B. that weight is unhealthy weight i.e fat as opposed to muscle mass.

 

these notions regarding Commons and his "weight" are bullshit. nobody mentioned his perceived size when he finished the season as our top scorer. regardless of his size, he still has consistantly outplayed most of the players in our current squad, and if he did have these supposed issues, then that doesnt say a lot for them.

 

Ffs....who let the lawyer in.....
commons is slow as * and spends most of his time trying to...1.recover from a injury....2.trying to get match fit.
shouldnt have given him a new contract...

 

haha I just think this is a thing some Commns haters try to grab onto when he isnt on top of his game. just fabricated purely because he is a stocky guy. he has never been the quickest. you could say the same for Brown and Lustig for the two points you have made. Probably Mulgrew would fit that bill also.

Id have a slow Commons in my team every day of the weak than those heartless * Bitton and Johansen.
Slow, but a slow winner.

 

Commons will always be my guy, but I won't be surprised if he's moved on. Slow, and probably will not suit Rodgers' style. While he's still arguably our best out and out attacker, he's not as potent and effective as he was under Lennon. Used to be danger every week, now he's largely hit or miss. Still have his jersey hanging on the wall tho...

 

When Deila was setting up his diet, physio etc I thought he had tested the players body fat percentage.

With Commons having the lowest percentage and Stokes having the highest?

Hes stocky with a muscular build I reckon, far from fat.

 

Just because he likes his McDonalds doenae mean he is a fat lad!

 

He's the most technically gifted player in our squad IMO but he could be even better with greater application. After every pre-season he looks about a stone heavier and miles off the pace. He's also the type of player who requires a run of games to get upto speed - when he's in and out of the team his fitness drops like snow off a *. Which all-in-all is a terrible combination considering our most important games of the season are right at the start.
