MoodyBlue1872 62 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 I don't think that was his worst game for us. He's frustrating as he has the talent and skill but doesn't do it all the time or more often than not IMO. Hopefully he will get better and better and justify the price tag. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don’t see the benefit to lambasting one of our players. It’s nothing to do with what you think it is. Don't waste your time. The triggering threshold of some people is just very low. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnMc 2,754 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Because of the result and overall performance Kent's goal yesterday is being overlooked a bit, which is a shame as it was a cracker. Great surging run from Kent, nice lay off to the impressive overlap from Barasic and a clever cross/pass from him, Kent didn't stop but continued his run right into the box and gets on the end of Aribo's lay off. It was a nice finish too. I was critical of Kent after the last Aberdeen match, felt both him and Aribo needed to do more from a creative perspective. To be fair Kent has since then, he's chipped in with goals and assists, generally works hard and creates something in every match. Time will tell if we paid too much for him, I don't think he's storming the league but he's scored 5 from 11 appearances which is a decent return and he is still better than Ojo, Barker or Jones I'd say. He also has the happy knack of scoring against Celtic, something to endear him to us. I suspect we'd recoup most of our fee for him still, Leeds were willing to pay it in the summer, I suspect there are other clubs like them who would see that as a decent investment. I think he'll prove to be an astute signing as long as he can steer clear of injuries. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
forlanssister 3,114 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Kent didn't pick the team or formation yesterday, I think the result had probably more to do with the fact our manager is still a relative rookie who is learning his trade than Kent's performance. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest the fact that literally none of players turned up or showed an ounce of urgency had a greater effect on proceedings than the shortcomings of our "rookie" manager 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a marked improvement with the introduction of Polster. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but Flanagan aside, we still had enough on the park to win that game 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
