Samaras...

I agree that he would be a good player to bring off the bench, like he was last season, but when VOH is fit, he really has to start with Skippy.

 

Does that make BOYD a top quality striker then ?

 

I seem to remember this time last year when he arrived a lot of people were rubbing their hands together as prior to him coming in on loan the same threads were appearing about JVOH.

All players have good and bad runs of form. Fact is the guy has been scoring goals albeit it not as many as any of us would like but then he's part of a team and to be perfectly honest if anyone of us can pick 4 players from the first 11 who are at the moment playing at the top of their game, you're a better man than I am.

 

Spot on FeedTheBearEvery player has bad spells!And even when Sammy isnt playing well he always gives his best and i think Jan coming back will only spur him on even more and im sure in the coming weeks the 3 strikers will all be banging them in.I actually cant remember the last time we had all 3 fit.

 

I'd rather have a guy that scores 40+ every season and does nothing rather than somebody that runs around all the time but scores about 10 times.

boyd has a magnificent spl goal record and at the end of the day only goals count.

 

Boyd is far from a top striker, More that two thirds of his goals have been against the bottom 6, I would'nt be suprised if the majority of Sammy's goals have been against lesser opposition also.

 

Actually top and best - Total Stats at Celtic for all seasons in all competitions:

Samaras - Games Started (Games started as sub): 29 (24).

Scored in League: 17. Scored in Cups: 3. Total Goals: 20.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Mcdonalds - Games Started (Games started as sub): 73 (6).

Scored in League: 32. Scored in Cups: 11. Total: 40.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Vengor - Games Started (Games started as sub): 81 (12).

Scored in League: 30. Scored in Cups: 10. Total: 40.

 

With out looking at the stat's look at the quality of the footballer.

 

Samaras is *. . . JVofH is *. . . mcDonald is no better than average.

The worst Celtic forward line since the likes of payton and * Cascarino !!

Absolutely * scunnered wi them !!

 

a dont see this so called super jvoh either though guys to be honest calling sammy very very lazy and asking for jvoh to play is highly hypocritical

 

Goals per game ratio:

Samaras - 0.38
VOH - 0.43
McDonald - 0.51

 

his main problem isnt lazyness. . . he's got a touch like the coushion on * snooker table.

 

Sammy drives me mad. The guy is hopeless

 

I think it's a myth that he's clumsy and lazy - he put in more effort than Skippy imo today.

He had a decent one on one saved well but where was the service today? The 4 midfielders may as well have not been playing tbh.

Oh wait there was the obligatory Hinkle lump ball from the half way line that I've yet to see a goal come from this season. Why why why

 

First touch is not even funny. Whatever happened to his pace? He used to be able to run at defenders but now he is like a tortoise!

Skippy + JVoH are a good partnership. Notice that Skippy scored about 5 minutes after JVoH came on?

 

Lies * lies and statistics etc


This season:
Samaras - Played 15(8) Goals 14 - 0.6 goals per game
MacDonald - Played 23(3) Goals 8 - 0.3

Throw in the sub appearances bias in favour of Macdonald........

 

Exactly.
