The enigmatic Cyriel Dessers

The original Enigma was Kris Boyd. However there is a big difference between Boyd and Dessers - Boyd knew how to put the ball in the back of the net. His criticism was he didnt do it against Celtic and was a waste of a shirt outside the box - Older posters will remember I was one of Boyd's critics - yet Id take him all day long right now over Dessers. 

Dessers issue isnt work rate, its that he misses chances in the range from half chances to easy chances to sitters - yet will still get goals but its 1 out of 9 or 10 chances (which actually says we are creating in the final third). But I dont see his game improving in the future and I can only see the sitters continuing. 

The problem is, our performances against Celtic haven't been the issue lately.  We don't need someone who can score against them (although obviously would be nice) if we'd done the job elsewhere (5 draws and 4 loses in the league not counting Celtic games) then we'd be a point clear at the top.  Give me a Boyd who can score against the smaller clubs but doesn't do the business against Celtic and right now I'd take it.
