I got confused about who was who on Saturday. I think both Duk and Morris are not great.

It's too early admittedly but you can normally tell within a few touches of a football if someone has the ability or not.

Wow

ABSOLUTELY dire

Completely and utterly clueless

Mclennan mk2

[Zeus]

World class 

[Millertime]

Honeymoon period is over

My knives are out now for some of these signings

Morris is the worst player I've ever seen, full stop

And i include mclennan in that and I DESPISED him

[aberdeen1970]

Aye. Morris and Richardson are pretty raw. 

Not sure we should be playing them both on the same side. 

Even against this lot.

Can think of at least 3 from last year that are worse than Morris. Also, why do a comma then write out "full stop" when you could have just used a full stop? You're the McLennan of writing, fannying around trying to impress instead of doing the simple thing first time.

[Poodler]

Very very poor

Maybe a bit cold for these southerners up here.

 

4 year deal aswell ?

[Millertime]

Double

Exhibit B, trying a couple of step overs and knocking it out for a goal kick

Austin samuels the second. 
 

but saying that samuels might have been better 

[Rico1903]

He also seems to be completely lacking in confidence. Goodwin said he will review whether Duncan stays with us or goes out on loan in January. I’d rather we kept Duncan and put this lad out on loan instead. 

[jamiesd]

A million miles off the level needed.  Id of rather had a few Annan players than him 

[Don_Corleone]

The guy is only 19 or 20, and he's got the raw ingredients to be a decent attacking player - hopefully he'll develop over the next season or two. He's probably a useful option to have on the bench but not starting material at the moment. Definitely better than Austin Samuels though!

For me, leaving aside the 2 strikers Miovski and Duk, the other attacking players order is...

Hayes > Besoujin > Duncan > Kennedy > Watkins > Morris > McLennan

Not sure about Roberts as he's played about 2 minutes... and that's based on my preference of who I'd like to see starting - so currently Hayes, Besoujin and Duncan as the 3 behind Miovski. If you were to add Duk into that mix I'd probably put him either just ahead or just behind Duncan, but I reckon he's probably better up front than in a supporting role. I'm not a Kennedy fan really, but I think he's done okay this season, and although I did like Watkins when he first arrived I'm less and less convinced by him. Think he might be off before the window's over anyway.

We said the same thing about mclennan when he burst onto the scene (myself included)

He had the raw materials too, ie pace, but absolutely hee haw else

A great many of us did.  Sadly for him he has just not really kicked on and developed.  In retrospect a mistake has probably been made there where he could've been loaned out to bottom 6 Premier League sides like what we did with other "raw talent" players like Scott Wright & Chris Maguire.

Morris has time on his side as a young player. He has pace and raw ability and will just need to take time to properly bed into the squad. He's been given this chance to impress and hasn't taken it; not the first and won't be the last.  From here on I imagine Goodwin will view him as the kind of player to get minutes late in matches against bottom 6 opposition whose legs are tiring; he can go and make his mistakes and learn from them and be challenged to break into the squad for next season.  The coaching setup that Goodwin has put in place combined with the fee supposedly paid for the boy, means that it will be 100% on him if he doesn't succeed.

[Joe pike]

I’m sure his stats for the last 3 years were 2 goals and no assists.

Somebody must have seen something in him.

Never seen him last night but when he came on as a sub in a couple of games he looked to have some potential.

Jurys out.

Yeah, some have the raw ingredients and make it, some have the raw ingredients and don't - we'll find out in due course with this lad, and the likes of Richardson too. Partly down to the coaching and how the manager uses them, and partly down to their own attitude and willingness and ability to learn and improve.

[Dal Riata Don]

 

He should lose the beard as it makes him look like a terrorist. 

[Bomber]

I think Ryan Duncan last night showed way more potential than Morris did and would like to see him start against county, he lit the game up when he came on direct and dangerous every time he got the ball.

[scottymc]

Give the guy a chance. He’s young. He needs games and a bit of confidence which will come in time

I agree I’d put him ahead of Morris, but I don’t think he’ll start in Dingwall.

I think Goodwin will go 4-3-3 & the front 3 will be Besuijen, Miovski & Hayes. 

[DandyWarhol]

Same starting XI as Livi match, though hopefully a more intense and aggressive approach from the off - we can't keep relying on the opposition gifting us pens and red cards.  If Coulsen is out then MacKenzie in for him I guess.

2-2

[fine-n-dandy]

Edit. Wrong thread

[aberdeen1970]

Scott Brown must have been pishing himself laughing when we came knocking for this lad. 

Guaranteed to end up in a mutual agreement to end contract early. 

[fine-n-dandy]

Boy can he run though 

 

Runs like a

[Bournemouth Gee]

He didn't do himself any favours today that's for sure 

[Tord31]

Loan him out to Exeter in January at a huge loss and forget about our fuck up until July.

Deary me.

Did we not have to go back in with an improved offer for him as well?

Exeter are going reasonably well. They wouldn't want him.

I agree with punting him out on loan but it'll be to a team like Edinburgh City or Annan. If he can cope at that level for 6 months there might be grounds for keeping him and trying to get him up to speed. But if he failed at that level then I'm with Aberdeen1970....cut our losses and try to agree a pay-off
