You mean like kris boyd?

Think you'll find Naka scores against the big teams like Man Utd,etc although Boyd doesnt get the chance to play in the Champions League with his club not being champions.
Seem to remember he scored a very good goal near the end of last season against rankers on our run to be Champions at Celtic Park

This is exactly what I am talking about.
Yes Nakamura scored two free kicks against Man Utd, aside from those, in the games he has played for us in Europe he has offered little and has at times been detrimental to the team. The same can be said of him at The Govan Reichstag where is all but anonymous and other tough away games.
We wouldn’t play a player just because he can hot a good penalty so why so with someone who can hit a good free kick? We cannot afford to play players who, for whatever reasons, are virtual passengers for most of the game – maybe Man Utd and Barcelona can, we can’t. Nakamura in the aforementioned games falls into that category.
