What frustrates me more is when we do "shoot" it's mainly tame inside of the foot efforts. Nobody seems to have the confidence to put the laces through it.
Not an easy one, with the lack of options.
Silva central would be my shout.
Aww shut up for f*ck sake. Only him to blame?If we lose this league ,especially on goal difference , it’ll be only him to blame .
Does he not realise there’s going to be defenders inthe box around him, youJust don’t get time to take extra touches !!
It would have to be McCausland who did OK there today, albeit for a short period of the match.I’m guessing neither Sima or Matondo are going to make it, in which case who’d play Silva’s role on the left?
I think we’re probably stuck with Dessers next week.
The amount of goals dessers would have if he takes his shots first time.
Frustrating.
At this point, I’d be happy if he got his shot away.A natural striker takes those chances with his first touch.
Seems weird saying that considering how many goals he has actually scored as well
Same amount that he wouldn't score if he didn't??The amount of goals dessers would have if he takes his shots first time.
Frustrating.
He’s not the only one who has missed good chances.The opposite of deadly is Dessers, not sure why many start with 'love the guy' he has potentially cost the title
I get that, but I don't think you'll see Dessers get many shooting opportunities at the piggery.Silva through the middle won't get as many shooting opportunities as Dessers does. That's been proven in the past.
Dessers drives us nuts and ultimately just isn't good enough but there isn't another attacker in our team that is getting themselves into those positions in the first place.
Wanting extra touches is a massively frustrating part of his game, especially when they're often 'heavy'.Only striker i know who doesnt shoot at first sight of goal.
surely PC is on his case about that or the striker coaches?
lack of confidence maby or just clueless to how little time he has to do a cut back inside.
He's genuinely scottish league 1 standardHe's simply not good enough7 and never will be
We've got two, Danilo was exactly the same pre injury, taking touches when a first time finish was easy.Only striker i know who doesnt shoot at first sight of goal.

Like a golfer getting the yips when putting.I genuinely think he has a nervous tic when presented with a scoring chance.
If I said what I really think about him I'd get a ban
He’s just murder, why does he never get hauled off when he has a stinker. I would even just go with a false 9 instead of him, one of our wingers playing through the middle. Or someone from youth setupThe amount of goals dessers would have if he takes his shots first time.
Frustrating.
NoIs Silva an option in the middle next week?
It'll have to be considered, you would think.Is Silva an option in the middle next week?
Hopefully I'm wrong, but I just can't see what Dessers will offer this game.It'll have to be considered, you would think.
You could at least see him taking the ball in, and bringing the wide forwards into play.
Daft question mate, but would you keep him next season with a large turnover already imminent?Silva through the middle won't get as many shooting opportunities as Dessers does. That's been proven in the past.

Correct mate,if Dessers was scoring 30 goals a season we couln't afford him,a severe reality check is needed from some on this forum.I think unless you can afford the absolute top quality strikers, strikers come in 2 varieties.
The ones who snatch too much and the ones who are prone to take too long.
Dessers is clearly one of the latter. It's frustrating as hell at times but he probably wouldn't score any more if he hit everything early, because the guys who hit it early but are still accurate and don't snatch are way out of our price range.
Overall 20+ goals, good work rate and doing the dirty work - as an example his contribution today for Lawrence's goal - is a pretty decent return for a second choice striker.
I'm not sure you'll get many better willing to come to the spfl as a back-up. Actually I'm not sure he'll want that role next year either so if we have to replace him we'll find out how easy or otherwise that is.
I'm the same.Hopefully I'm wrong, but I just can't see what Dessers will offer this game.

He'll ragdolll Dessers as well unfortunately.Carter Vickers will rag doll Silva.
Least Dessers has more mass to be a bit competitive than Silva
