This is something else that is being overly exaggerated IMO 

Wright & Hedges have certainly given us a little extra spark but That has fk all to do with Cosgroves absence & the team played no different with Main starting yesterday either

That's because Main can't do the job required either. But at the moment he's putting in marginally more effort than Cosgrove (who is walking and jogging about) 

[fine-n-dandy]

Hayes, McCrorie,Wright & Hedges form has been the uplift in attacking play & whether Cosgrove or any other striker plays changes nothing there.

This as I said previously is BS which I think has been bred by the bitterness of him refusing the transfer.

He is still getting into space, he is still having to track back for tackles in midfield & out wide & the lack of interest thing is a load of shite

Not true. 

When Watkins was in the team he pressed the opposition defenders high up the park giving the rest of the team space.  He was also able to swap positions with Hedges and Wright giving us a bit less predictability

He’s not fit now. We have only three strikers.

I already said Watkins would be a better option right now if fit as the whole side has dropped to a shite level.

Cosgrove is our best option right now.

You said it made no difference who was up front. 

And we're going to have to disagree regarding Cosgrove's work rate.  It is completely unacceptable at the moment. 

Even the manager must think so as I'm sure he'd rather play Cosgrove than Main (and yes I know what you think of McInnes) 

[fine-n-dandy]

Ffs if Anderson was still here he would likely be our best option.

I quite simply do not rate Main or Edmondson in the slightest at any time, Cosgrove is shite at moment also but still a better option than those two

This work rate shite is a complete exaggeration that has been tagged onto the teams shiteness as a whole.

So why isn't he in the team then?

I don't think you'll find a single person on this forum who thinks Main is the answer. 

So why is he in the team? Because your boy isn't trying a leg, that's why.

It’s probably because he still isn’t long back from injury. He’s clearly a player that requires time.

Can give Main all the time he wants but he won’t improve

You just said he wasn't performing because the rest of the team was playing shit. 

Now it's because he isn't fit himself. 

I think it's more likely that he doesn't do the job required in the 343 combined with him wanting away and not really giving a fuck.

Probably a combination of the two but he will still always be a better option than either of Main/Edmondson 

in my humble opinion 

 

only debate for me regards our strikers would be between Cosgrove & Watkins when both fully fit or on form.

The other two are simple wastes of time

It says it all about Hernandez that the likes of Duncan and Ngwenya are getting minutes ahead of him.

Probably says just as much about McInnes.

Throwing someone in with approximately 13 seconds left isn't really giving them a chance. 

It says McInnes doesn't fancy him at all. Anyone who has 17 full caps can obviously play, unfortunately he refuses to give him time to show what he can do. He is openly trolling him.

[winchester83]

Talking about scoring goals is fair enough but all good teams build from thr back. Were wasting our time if we continue playing Taylor, posted missing again in both County's chances. I feel embarassed for him and his teammates.

Maybe, but that's just conjecture isn't it?

It is but given we never get to see him play and no journalist is prepared to put on their big boy pants and ask McInnes about it, conjecture is all we have.

Yip.  By far the weakest link in the team when the quota is being adhered to (i.e. no Ojo)

Mental no journo has bothered to ask him what the craic is.  Fair enough if we signed him on a free but he's one of if not our most expensive signing ever.

Many caps did David Zdrilic have?

Or Rory Fallon?

Venezuela are a proper footballing nation though and their caps were largely amassed against the Cook Islands and Vanuatu.

I’ve asked the question tonight at the virtual AGM, both confirmation of the fee and why he ain’t getting played.
