He also signed a 1 year extension at the end of May, so I assume he is very much still part of Utd's plans, even if it's currently from off the bench.
-
I think Goodwin wants to play one up top, and Moult plays much better with a sidekick.
-
He had to make a quick exit at the end of the commentary, as he said he didn't think he was safe.

SK has spoken at length (as always) about defence being our biggest weakness last season. Although you hardly need a UEFA Coaching badge to have spotted that. Difficult to tell how much the injured defenders will add, but Liam Gordon has made a difference, and we definitely looked more organised. The biggest difference is that, so far, we have cut out most of the stupid mistakes. Promising signs, but very early days. We won 3 and drew 1 in our first four league games last season before we went into meltdown, so no chickens being counted yet.
-
I'm still unconvinced about some of Casey's defending, but he was definitely a top performer yesterday and put the fear into St Johnstone's defence every time he came up the park for a free kick or corner.
-
MOTM respects the confidentiality that makes it such a safe space. I can confirm, however, Tony did not vote for himself.
-
The shot that came in at Oxborough was hit hard and at pretty close range. Could he have done better? As every headline writer in every newspaper has said multiple times this week, definitely maybe.
-
We were definitely the better team, and should have put it out of reach in the second half before St Johnstone equalised. A fair result, even if a late goal sometimes makes it feel like we nicked it.

Levein the dream. Meanhwile, take your pick...

It looked 100% on the line to me, I just didn't think it was a foul - and from the reaction, neither did the players. Mind you, with some of the rulings these days, you can never be sure.
-
They were correct to be unimpressed - he sold that one.
-
What a joke. Didn't look like a pen in real time, and 17 hours of VAR confirms.
-
4 - 1 against Livi and 5 - 1 against Ross County in May.
-
My money is still on 8 league goals or less. I'm confident, however, he'll score more for St Mirren than he did for Killie.

By all accounts Naismith played him in a deeper role early in the season, which clearly isn't his strength. Of course, he will take time to adjust to a new system and new team mates, so I wouldn't write him off at this point. I'm not surprised Hearts are struggling, though. I don't rate Naismith as a coach, and they got away with some poor performances under him last season thanks to Shankland's goals. Even when we were bad last season, you could at least see the team had a plan and a shape - we either didn't execute or made stupid mistakes (or both). Hearts just look clueless right now, and long may it continue.

I was too busy laughing at Michael Stewart banging on about how "this team are there for taking" Not by this Hearts team, Michael. They were even worse than they were at Fir Park.

I'm smart enough to know "mean average" isn't a thing. However, you asked where the 7 or 8 goals per season came from, so I provided you with the evidence. Maybe you thought 7 or 8 goals per season meant "exactly 7 or 8 goals every season" - in which case I'd suggest your understanding of football stats is "mean average"
-
It comes from his well documented stats. In particular, his time while playing in the UK. I'll break it down for you into manageable chunks Scunthorpe 2014-15: 20 games, 2 goals Scunthorpe 2015-16: 20 games, 2 goals Canbur 2015-16: 12 games, 1 goal Scunthorpe 2016-17: 20 games, 10 goals Scunthorpe 2017-18: 21 games, 5 goals Northampton 2017-18: 10 games, 0 goals 4 seasons, 20 goals = 5 goals per season Northampton 2018-19: 25 games, 7 goals Scunthorpe 2018-19: 13 games, 1 goals Scunthorpe 2019-20: 27 games, 10 goals Scunthorpe 2020-21: 19 games, 1 goal 3 seasons, 19 goals = 6.3 goals per season tl;dr - in the 7 seasons before he joined us he scored 39 = 5.6 goals per season. If you want to look at his return over his entire career, including his record spell with us and his 20 goals in the Dutch 3rd division, he has 109 goals in 14 seasons = 7.8 goals per season.
-
I said when KVV left it was perfect timing. Cashed in while he was hot and zero chance of a repeat of that season. We got the best out of him, but now I think he'll more likely be back to his more normal 7 or 8 goals a season form (if you're lucky) Better not to tarnish his club legend status.
-
That must have come as a real punch to the guts. That incident reminded me of the St Mirren game at Love St where Billy Abercrombie was shown 3 red cards - although we didn't realise it was that many at the time.
-
I don't think it's overshadowing yesterday's game. I haven't seen it mentioned in the media, and it's only a small number of posters discussing. Regardless, I'd propose a 2 step solution: Step 1. If you're a fan and behaving like a ned, stop it. Step 2. If you're a club official and overstepping your authority, stop it. Now that's done I'm off to sort out the cease-fire talks in Cairo.
-
He might have had his faults, but Kelly wasn't responsible fot Butcher, Blaney, Casey and Mugabi losing their man multiple times per game. Also no coincidence it was a poor header from Casey that gave Spittal his chance in the first half.

Doesn't get much better than turning over the Jambos. Now take your pick...
