Shin Yamada

Difficult to know if Sinisalo would perform better than Kasper. Difficult to know if Inamura could handle playing against anyone except Livi. Difficult to know if anything other than the same 3 man midfield would get us playing better. Difficult to know much when the manager does the same thing week in week out.

Not difficult to know how we play if you're an opposition manager though.

 

If I was yamada I would be kicking brendans balls

 

Should be demanding to know why he wasn't sent out on loan. Osmand anaw.

 

or signed at all

 

Osmand rejected the chance to go on loan



As for Shin it’s a case of letting him settle in for 6 months

 

Aye, absolutely..

I think we can say Sinisalo has looked good enough tbf

 

Yep, which makes it all the more frustrating he doesn't get a run.

 

25 years old? I thought he was like 19 * sake.

He really ought to push for a transfer away in January coz his career is just in screen saver mode here.

 

This is what happens when directors bring in players the coach clearly doesn't want. A waste of time, money, squad place and for the guy himself a career dead-end. It's not even amateurish it's self-harm.

 

Surely cant be worse than Kenny

 

Looked much more of a threat/nuisance than Kenny imo, not even close either. Appreciate everyone sees things differently though.

 

In what game? Genuinely because I can’t remember him being involved at all in the time he has played, albeit limited.

 

He looked bit of a handful/nuisance v the Huns

 

Started and played well against Livingston at home too.

 

He might be pish but at least worth a try at this point.

 

If rather see him come off the bench than Kenny.

We all know what we're getting from Kenny and it's not good enough.

I'd rather roll the dice and see what Shin has.

 

This is all about Rogers battle with the board we have a player who scored 19 goals in the j League and doesn't even get on the bench while we struggle to score.
Rogers putting himself before Celtic and results and this will end badly for him if we don't start winning games .

 

Seemingly the season before last when he had a pretty good goalscoring year he played as part of a front two. He was doing most of the running and his strike partner was more of a physical presence.

With Iheanacho not looking the quickest, but seems to have good instincts in picking up positions, I think it would be worth trying a 3-5-2 style set up with Iheanacho partnering with Maeda and Shin coming off the bench.

 

Livingston at home I thought he done well & was unlucky not to score particularly given lack of game time. And we looked much better when he came on against the Huns away. He got stuck in & was linking the play well, seemed to rattle their defence a bit I thought. So much so that I can’t get my head around why he’s been completely bombed out since especially given how toothless we are in attack. It’s a disgrace imo.

 

That will be the same game when Kenny come on, looked a handful and got a goal. He done well in the Newcastle game as well Kenny, even taking away the goal he got.

The game away to the huns he made no difference. That’s nothing against him by the way, because the whole team were hopeless for 90 minutes.
