duncan II Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 1 hour ago, ProudScot said: There’s a reason even clubs like Aberdeen, Hibs & Hearts have never signed him even when he’s been available on a free - hence why he plays for a team struggling near the bottom. Theres no agenda, he’s done well. He’s very average and a young up and coming right back will take his place very soon - that’s the reality He played in the Kilmarnock team that finished third. That’s quite near the top (just behind firs and second). And was arguably one of the top two or three performers in that team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's out of contract at the end of the season I think, lets see were he goes next. Problem with O'Donnell is he creates next to nothing and he is part of the reason we can't break teams down,that and our strikers being pish. Of course you could add the "he hasn't let us down" comment to Dykes as well. If a similar goal to Hanleys had been scored against us, Marshall and Hanley would be getting crucified it was hardly an assist. When O'Donnell starts making defence splitting passes from the acres of space he is allowed by the opposition I will applaud him. Woops just noticed he had an assist for Dykes goal against Slovakia, perhaps mediocrity is the way forward Exactly. His first two touches v Austria were mis-controlling the ball out of play too.

Orraloon Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 He had a good game on Thursday. For me that position is his, and it's up to other contenders to show that they are good enough to take that place in the team off him. Too many folk on here seem to think that a player isn't good enough for Scotland until they have moved to the EPL. Which is absolute nonsense.

mccaughey85 Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 thought he had a decent game last night. didnt make any serious errors and i am pretty sure he made a vital block in the second half. had some decent passes as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumnio Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 While not being very good, I don’t think he played badly in either game, wouldn’t give him much blame for the results or performances. He certainly contributed more than the guy one on the other side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stitch Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 The main thing that let him down was his final ball when he got in good positions. I think he did OK in both games but it is a position we can get better in. Our captain was one of the worst players on the park in both games but nobody is making an issue with that.
