    Has to be right sided as well..

    1 We don't have a capable right footed replacement. 2 To manage the load with Carter-Vickers who picks up a fair amount of niggles/injuries. 3 A succession plan as he won't be here forever..

    Agree with the comments about him being better in Europe. Not sure if it’s because he is struggling with the pace of the game a bit here. He is definitely struggling with the physicality of it though, that’s for sure.

    Saying he's * at heading is just blatantly false, it's by far his best attribute for us.

    Scales passing is absolutely honking as well.

    He gets caught in possession far too often, and gets bullied rotten by SPL bruisers.
    I think we can do much better. I wasn't for him when we first signed him, and he has done nothing to change my opinion since.

    He appears to be in the Jullien/Lenz mould. Looks imperious at times but then can look all over the place(as he did last night). Definitely seems to struggle with the, how shall I say, robust and basic style of our opponents in Scotland.

    For sure had a poor game last night. I think describing him as in the Jullien/Lenz mode is a good comparison. Good players but ones that strangely given their size can get bullied and struggle at times because of it in the spfl.
