Uilleam 5,489 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 If Pena isn't match fit, how's he going to get match fit ? Not sitting on the bench he's not. He'll need to go out on loan somewhere possibly til the end of the year Motherwell; as part of the deal for Louis Moult? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC 150 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) To be honest, but for Beaton we probably would be sitting on 7 points. And you know who could, perhaps, be two points fewer but for another ref - and how differently that would make us all feel. Doesn't help, though.

pete 2,499 Posted August 20, 2017 Author Share Posted August 20, 2017 Far too early for Pena -- he's only played 10 minutes! The price tag was for his pedigree. It's just a case of getting him up to speed. How long does it take a professional footballer to get up to speed?. Surely not 8-10 weeks unless he is coming from a serious injury. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 13,752 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Pena has come from another continent and appears to have some issues, maybe medical and phychological. You can't expect every new player to hit the ground running. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trublusince1982 243 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 no the question is directed at posters on here saying we have to show patience i thought patience and understanding was after the first hammering sorry but I'm not obsessed with Celtic. I fully expect them to beat us as they financially dwarf us. I hate Celtic and want nothing to do with them so I don't immerse myself in their crap then base everything we do on countering them. I don't want to be anything like them in anyway other than being champions . As said its when to use patience that needs to be learned. When there are clear signs of progress then you stay calm. If we looked worse than we did before his arrival then sure I would be with you calling for his head but thankfully the progress is clear to see and we aren't a million miles off being a very good side. Also as said earlier it's very clear already that we will see a massive return on his expenditure too so happy days. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were talking about playing him until he gets up to speed. I'm pointing out we can't as the fans won't allow it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
