Danny 0 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Has Healy scored 5 goals in 2 starts and 3 sub appearances? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 7 competitive appearances this season comprised of starts against Falkirk in the Cup, Motherwell last week and Arbroath today. Came on as a sub at Firpark in August, against Celtic in our 4-2 win at Ibrox, against Dunfermline in our 0-4 away win and also against Celtic at their midden. 2 goals in those 7 appearances. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Ally 0 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Thought I heard 2 in the commentary today. Aside from today and the other week I cant remember the others. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 0 Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Typo on my part, meant 3 goals, not 5. 2 against Motherwell separate matches, and one today. The other was last season S_A - he came on late in a 6-0 against Motherwell I think it was, and scored in the last 5 minutes I believe. But that's 2 starts in a row and 2 goals. Long way to go before he's consistently established, but I'm delighted for him and hope he keeps it up. I don't see why he can't. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,519 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I don't think it is only goals that Healy brings to the team his movement is far better than anyone else we have and that gives Jelavic far more space by pulling defenders away. This team is actually starting to look good with all the things we were saying was missing. Aluko must be the first name on the team sheet and given the same allowance of movement that Naismith had. In another thread it was said that three goals does not change the supporters mind on Healy and that may be so, but anyone still doubting Aluko's talents must be totally against change of mind. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Heard he missed a couple of sitters which seems to happen a lot for him. So while he scores a few, he doesn't seem to instil total confidence in the fans. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ergatrude 0 Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 He missed at least 3 howlers. Could put it down to lack of sharpness. If we hadn't won so comfortably I'm almost certain he would be getting slated for that. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilledbear 16 Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Every striker misses chances. Just looking at the number of appearances, he must be playing to get some sharpness back, before we can judge. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GovanAllan 0 Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 They all miss more than they score, just ask his manager about that. Ally used to have me pulling my hair out at times, at least he's getting himself into the position to miss the finishing will come. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 4,165 Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Sometimes, even Wikipedia can be your friend. David Healy MBE (not including the Arbroath goal). As with the 2nd coming of Kenny Miller, some strikers are more known for their assisting work than their goalscoring prowess. I see Healy more in that department than in a Boyd/Negri role. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
