It's convenient to your argument to declare you were right because of his mistakes on Sunday & the emergence of Ramsay. To me he's looked a decent back-up player, which is what he is. I think he'll improve too once he plays more and settles in - maybe not better than Ramsay, but a better back-up. I don't really see it as the bad signing you're suggesting it to be. I'd say he's an improvement on last season's Shay Logan. I thought Gurr put in some really good crosses under pressure. Logan of any season with us wouldn't have put in that second half defensive performance though. He was very lucky to still be on the park and should have been hooked immediately after bringing down Berra. I'd rather see McRorie used as backup for Ramsay. Whilst I sort of agree with your point about folk writing him off, it does stand to reason that if he can't displace Hernandez then he should be deemed not good enough for the dons. That does raise very legitimate concerns. However, I was far more comfortable when we signed him after he was released by Atlanta, which suggested* that there was no deal between us and our dodgy parent club. I'd like to see him a few more times before I pass judgement, he seemed to panic a little after his yellow and never really settled. As a backup, he could prove useful. My first impressions are not, but I'm not as convinced of that as I was Hernandez. *I say suggested, as I don't fully know. In theory there may have been a gardening leave style arrangement where they were paying him until he found a club or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlg1903 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 One mistake does not make him a shit player, jury is still out for me. His biggest asset look to be his crossing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
