EE: Hitmen backed to bag 30 goals

[Ajja]

Its just an interesting statistic, get over it for fuck sake.

 

If it said:

 

Miller - 6*    (*4 pens which basically means he is not as good as he thinks he is and that he may devalue the crucial study that is taking place on Donstalk)

 

Then I'd tend to agree, but it doesn't. I'm sure you are all intelligent enough to apply your own filter to information rather than denying others the benefit of full information to support your own insignificant annoyances. OK ?

[TENEMENTFUNSTER]

It just feeds into some folks agenda hereabouts and elsewhere to point out the shortcomings or clouds on silver linings.

 

I fear I'll never get over it. It's a tough one.

None of those 'people' were the ones to point it out though. Give people the credit to be able to understand that a penalty still counts as a goal. There is scant room for misinterpretation and spin in that surely ?

As someone mentioned above, If we are going list Miller's pens can you put Mulgrews free kick goals as seperate as well.

 

I think that would also be an interesting statistic.

Its not a closed up thread mate. Work away. Whatever you want to post, you post it. Noone is going to stop you.....

Aluko's second was a clean through on keeper and neatly stroked away under  his body...where was the fluke ? If we are going to be a bunch of pricks, lets' at least be factual pricks huh ?

It was against St Mirren and they are fucking pish, so certainly a goal of less standing than one against Celtic, for example.

Yeah, so Mulgrews goal should may count as two whereas Alukos is maybe a half? Actually it was a neat finish so we'll make it a .75

In my view, if a dude can fire into Helen Mirrens box without resistance, dribble a little before letting one off right between the uprights leaving Helen Mirren on the floor with nothing more to give in return then its a score of high standing

......I'm sure is what you meant to put up 

 

Mulgrew and MacDonald looking like good additions in terms of goals as well as general contribution. MacDonald is now looking like the replacement for Barry Nic we have been hoping he was.

[TENEMENTFUNSTER]

Whoops!

 

Just lacking the ability to tackle. He looks pretty hopeless at that but has scored some really good goals and continues to make the kind of runs that Nicholson made.

You could be right about the tackling but as a progressive midfielder he is looking more the part and is a good compliment for Aluko pushing forward. As someone else said, I just hope we have the confidence to play that settled set up over January. Particularly against Hearts as they will come up to defend and hit us on the break. We will need forward thinking midfielders to break them down.

[capitalsharpie]

It seems that our mid field IS actually gelling.  Why it takes half a seson to do that mystifies me though.  Anyway, with the fixtures we have comng up jambos, tims and filth next month, we can ONLY keep a settled formation.  If we attack the filth like we have done in spells this season we will especially tear the hun a new arsehole.  I believe they are a worse team than the league actually shows. This is the time to build on confidence and take ourselves up that league.  I dont think two wins and against these three is imopssible.

The reason given was how nervous Kerr and McDonald seemed when they realised how big a club we are. Now they've settled in they're both steadily becoming stand outs. Hard to argue with that?

If the number was 22 then I couldn't agree more..........it's 13!...that's THIRTEEN

Aye but most other seasons the rest of the team wouldn't be as close.

Please don't tell me you think we are doing well here ? We are around 43% towards a tally that was a very poor target to start with and we are pretty much 50% of the way through the season unless we have a cup run......oh and did I metion that 4 of them were penalties
