he was cracking in Holland before getting 2 big moves. 

 

I think he will stroll scotland in epic fashion. 

Hope you’re right 🤓

I still think we should be signing players in their early 20s rather than ones looking to get their career back on track

I think I agree but overall we need guys who will deliver silverware.

I agree with you, but Cantwell falls into the 'looking to get their career back on track' category. There are options out there. 

 

I would prefer younger players with the potential to sell on.

He does. Made a very good start. Long way to go.

In the last year Matondo, Ridvan, Raskin, Sterling have come in who are all early 20's to be fair and we've been linked to Panzo as well who's 22 I think..Cifuentes is 24 which is still young these days and so was Cantwell when he came in. Beale is definitely making the team younger, taller and more energetic.

 

I think he's trying to have a blend and hopefully build up to a peak with a spine in 2/3 seasons, or at least that's what he's implied in interviews.

He can't be blamed for his xG. He can only take the chances he's given. 

 

What you'd criticise him for is scoring under his xG, which he did last season. But, it's 2 goals from an xG of 4. It's not atrocious. Two goals from an xG of 10 would be atrocious.  

 

Like I've said elsewhere, he looks like a pressing forward in profile. They're not generally goalscorers. 

It is 50% less than his xG.... that IS bad...... see, stats can do whatever you want them to 🤣

The stats are the stats, I had a look at a youtube compilation of the boy the other day and he can play football. Regardless of the stats he produces for us it looks likely we will all enjoy watching him play.

Did you also watch the youtube montage of Sebo ???  He looked like he could play football too.....
