I'm judging Adams on his abilities. Would I have accepted Barnes? Yes. He's a good player. Watch Che Adams tonight when Southampton play Leicester and tell him me if you think he's good. (If he plays. He probably will, Ings is injured.) Edited April 30, 2021 by Taylor1996 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately. Just read an article where he said that he's "English through and through", which is fair enough. Some people here think my objection towards Che Adams Is because he rejected us. It isn't. He's just a really average striker. A really average striker who in his few Scotland appearances has scored a decent goal and bagged a few in the EPL unlike your supposedly better multi-capped Oli McBurnie.

Third Lanark Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 As for Barnes I think Ryan Kent is a better player (and so does Clive Tyldesley). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The operative word being "anymore". Which means I once cared, but not "anymore". Was I initially apprehensive about Che Adams playing for Scotland, as he turned us down? Yep. But it is what it is. I'm now judging him on his footballing ability. Do I think he's better than Dykes? No. Is he better than McBurnie? No. Is he better than a fit and sharp Griffiths? No. It's not a difficult concept.

Maybe not but our goals are more likely to come from midfield or a set piece and McBurnie has shown bugger all in his 16 caps in terms of holding the ball up and bringing others into play. The drop in quality in Serbia especially between him and a tired Dykes was staggering, granted this was only 1 game but Iâm struggling to think of McBurnie having a good game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
