He's also better than Erwin, Obika and Brophy (that's the only three strikers of yours I know). Agree. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old and a cheat, with enough baggage to fill Lost and Found at Euston Station for a year, the Dees can sign him. He's better than Sow, Ofalabi and Jakubiak. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenburn bud Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Lafferty is a total helmet of a boy but he’s definitely got ability when he wants to concentrate on football, sadly he’s got a reputation for diving and that along with his other previous baggage is what you get with him. It certainly won’t stop a number of clubs from trying to sign him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's better than Sow, Ofalabi and Jakubiak. He's certainly better than Sow. Afolabi is about 20 and has shown some good promise but hasn't had enough chances for one thing or another. Jakubiak is a crock it looks like. Would take Lafferty in a heartbeat. Who are these better striker St Mirren should be aiming for, out of interest? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is simply not worth the hassle, and it's likely we'd pay through the nose in wages if he has other suitors. All round, a bad deal for both us and the player. I would sign him. Better than what we have and would score 10 goals plus. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We seem to play better against teams that 'challenge' us. He looked pretty good in those two - work rate, good runs and decision making and when he was asked to take it into a channel, he done that getting us up the park. In the Championship? Poor. Finishing left a lot to be desired and was incredibly frustrating (because there was no space afforded for us to put him into). Those two last games could turn out to be massive for his Dundee career. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mullen was good last night, and the previous leg too, but in reality that was against a very shit Kilmarnock defence. Got a lot of time for Mullen, he always puts in the effort, but he'll struggle in the Premiership for Dundee as much as he did for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a lot of time for Mullen, he always puts in the effort, but he'll struggle in the Premiership for Dundee as much as he did for us. I was more pointing out a striker who was better than Lafferty, admittedly on very limited evidence. And yes, I think Dundee will need better next season and Mullen will probably be moving to Dunfermline or ICT in January. @Mr. Alli - see above - I was being tongue in cheek, as you've guessed; though I do have loads of time for Mullen. If he's happy coming off your bench then he could still have a role to play for you next season. Edit to add: some folk, myself included, felt he would be better in one of the wide slots in a front 3. He covers the ground, chases everything, makes a nuisance of himself, and would probably still be good for 5-7 goals a season in that position.

buddie06smfc Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Alan Power is from the the free state. He must be up there in Goodwin’s list of consideration. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torfason Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I quite like Pinnock as an option but it’s really hard to see who would be a good signing as collectively that Killie side was honking. I wonder how many of their goalies will get offers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 If we sign anyone from Kilmarnock then in the spirit of reciprocity we should send one or two of our academy players to them on loan as the start of a longer-term feeder club partnership with them. Always thought Killie were a good wee club, and I'm sure their fans will appreciate seeing top talents from a bigger club learning their trade. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
