I’m sure you’re right MacK. It sometimes seems every ‘keeper in the league pulls off wonder saves against Rangers 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, they are the first signings that have had an impact on the first XI in ages. I would include Lawrence here, as well as shifting Sakala to the wing-attack slot and play him constantly. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malangsob 1,203 Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 A couple good goals but failed again by our D. Goldson out for 10 weeks now I heard on RR. Chin up, press on. I love you tomorrow. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to say too though that Ridvan is proving me wrong with each passing game - I didnt think he would cut it but he has been very good last couple of games too 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawrence aye. Sakala is a horrific footballer. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the first half yesterday, Sakala turned in what must be a contender for the worst personal performance of the season. He was a little improved after half time but it's hard to see him as the answer to anything. However, he's one of those players who attracts emotional commitment from fans and will no doubt continue to be forgiven. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realise wee Fashion is far from a highly skilled consistant winger, but looking at these league stats he does better than average. Fashion - 10 goals, 7 assits in 28 games Morelos - 11 goals, 5 assits in 32 games Kent - 3 goals, 8 assits in 29 games Wright - 0 goals, 1 assits in 23 games 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Sakala was half the player he should be, he would have had twice as many goals and assists. Seldom seen anyone make more bad decisions and miss more clearcut chances. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JohnMc 2,473 Posted May 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2023 Effort and hard work excuse a multitude of sins in the eyes of most Scottish football fans. Sakala's a better player now that at the start of the season. His covering and tracking back are impressive and he can challenge and sometime win arial duels now too. His finishing is still way below what's required and his decision making remains patchy at best. But he doesn't hide and he keeps at it, it's hard not to like him while still hoping we sign someone better. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was poor last night and his crossing is surprisingly bad for a specialist full back. A bit like Sakala he works hard but I'm not convinced by him yet. Still early days in terms of playing time of course. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
