Yes Clarke brought in a number off coaches in and around the squad to help out during the squads and Faddy was one off them,it was only on a part time basis though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukDukGoose Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Time for Ross Stewart to get a look in? Basically scored a hat trick today (first was an o.g by the keeper but may have went in). Three different types of goals as well. Surely gets a move from Sunderland in the summer if they don't get promoted? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a move that waits til the Nations League games in June due to importance of the March game/ double header. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, beyond Dykes, Adams, and a misfiring Nisbet, there isn’t a single Scottish striker ripping it up anywhere. Stewart is scoring more goals and at a higher level than anyone but Watt. The only players remotely matching are McKenna, Austin, and Goodwillie, all at a much lower level, and again, not even doing anything spectacular… Thank SC for getting us those two. Without them we’d probably have the worst striking options since the Vogts era. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point.Thinking of the Performance School chat on other threads, are there any PS strikers currently active in high level senior football? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those that went to a PS that I am aware of that are amongst our best young forwards are probably Kai Kennedy (Rangers, was on loan at Dunfermline, more of a winger), Stuart McKinstry (made his debut for Leeds late last year, more of a winger), Dapo Mebude (Watford, on loan in League 1 at Wimbledon where he has played 12 times scored twice). Others kicking around who might be considered out better prospects but who didin't attend a PS are Glenn Middleton (Rangers, on loan at St Johnston, more of a winger), Aaron Pressley (Brentford, on loan at League 1 Wimbledon, played 19 times and scored twice), Ewan Urain (Bilbao B, plays regularly) and Kyle Joseph (Swansea, on loan in League 1 at Cheltenham where he has 19 appearances and 4 goals). Nobody really stands out there (yet) as being in the class that the likes of Gilmour, Patterson and Ramsay are/will be.

As you say, no standouts yet, but at least a good number (7) with age and potential on their side 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian1 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I was trying to think who the Stoke City striker was who came on against Moldova....not exactly long ago but still had to do a google search - Jacob Brown - doesnt look like a great option really, - only 5 goals this season. Incidentally Ewan Urain of Bilbao B - what a name. Favourite band - Duran Duran? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quentin Taranbino Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 15 year old forward Archie Gray on the bench for Leeds today. Hasn't been involved in any of the youth squads for Scotland yet - but given his dad, grandad and uncle all played for Scotland, you would like to think he might want to follow their path 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whos played for England u16s already unfortunately. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2426255 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) Minutes and Games/Goal for January 2022. (Includes domestic cup matches) Lyndon Dykes and Jacob Brown need to just keep doing what they're doing, same with Adams, although it would be nice to see him picking up a higher proportion of available minutes after recovering from Covid19. I've not watched him beyond highlights, but Kevin Nisbet seems to be the most likely to lose his place should another striker start banging them in come February. I saw Lawrence Shankland got his 2nd goal in 2 games yesterday for Beerschot. Edited January 30, 2022 by 2426255 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
