Goals From Outside The Area

We've been over-reliant on forwards (albeit some very good ones, who have delivered the goods) for some time. By nature, most of their goals - the occasional screamer aside - will be from inside the box. Goals from midfield have been rare in recent years, but Ross Forbes has already scored more goals this season than Stephen Hughes (for instance) managed in two years, and three of these have been absolutely stunning long range efforts.

the last gout outside the box wasnt 1995

 

clarky got at least 1 last year and maros got 1 to

 

Exactly mate he was talking shite. Ged Brannan is another and Bob Malcolm ffs done it last season. Brian Kerr done it agianst Aberdeen the guy is just a baw bag who hasn't a clue.

Are you counting his goal against Rhyl? He has scored three in competitive games. Two against Flamurtari and one today. One of the goals against the Albanians was a penalty. A good goal.....but not a screamer.

His volley against Steaua Bucharest wasn't too bad though, was it?

I think he was exaggerating for effect. We have a habit of trying to walk the ball into the net.

Amazing when some people were saying the reason why we needed to keep Hughes many said there are not many goal scoring midfielders in our price range...

 

Naw bad, nae need for this transfer crap when your own youth does a good enough job. Division 3 Championship winner to Motherwell's top goal scorer. Naw bad for a midfielder. :thumbup:

I don't remember anybody saying that. The Hughes discussion was about whether we could could find ourselves a midfield playmaker.
