  1. A pretty stupid statement if you ask me. Have a look at the stats for any player Gaulds age even the world greats like Messi or Ronaldo and you won't see a great many goals. He is learning and progressing as is any player that age.

    He's not a striker either.

  2. Surprised nobody's mentioned Derek Ferguson. Saw him a few times for Scotland U18's and he was unbelievable. Nobody on the park could get anywhere near him, one touch and 3 opponents would be trailing in his wake. Potentially phenomenal that guy. What a waste.

    Yes, very talented player.

  3. Shaun maloney under leviene arguably yes, under strachan no.

    His goals in warsaw and at celtic park plus his work rate take him into the key player category in my eyes.

    He was also nothing like Shaun Maloney.

  4. He is the most naturally talented Scottish player I've seen, but played in the wrong era. Today he'd play in the hole and definitely not on the wing. The videos show the goals but it was his vision and quick feet that elevated him to genius level when on top form. He had a great campaign with Scotland before Mexico 86 but a system wasn't really in place to maximise his talent.

  5. Interesting article about the in-form Armstrong who in all honesty hasn't really been that good this season. Flashes here and there, but he can play better.

    I would've dismissed the Sporting link as nonsense, but not now obviously. He's a clever guy, pretty sure he'd choose Lisbon if the chance presented itself.

    No evidence in that article to suggest it's true.

  6. About a year ago, on the old board, i made a thread about who was your club's player of the year. it was a time when United had a few decent players in various states of form.

    I named Robertson as the stand out and said he was destined for the top. I would have preferred him to have remained at Tannadump for another season and thought Hull was a shit move but knew he wouldn't be there for long.

    The boy has it all and it's been an incredible rise for him.

    And to think Victim FC released him and Zombie FC never spotted him.

    He still needs to work on his first touch.
