    Anyone saying Pukki was a quality player is mugging themselves, he was atrocious, how the duck he played for a club as big as Schalke is beyond me

    Not sticking up for Pukki here, don't rate him, but our fans really, really need to learn that some players just need time to settle/aren't suited to Scotland. He was never a goalscorer but he was also never '* abysmal'. That sort of * is saved for Moshni's of this world.

    I'm not saying that if he was given another season he'd be a brilliant player for us and crucial to our hopes. No. However I think one of these days we are going to be a bit too rash with a player who doesn't hit the ground running and miss out big time.

    Mate I gave him time. Loads of it! whenever a player signs for us I always give him a season or two, use the usual excuses like, he still has to settle, get used to his team mates, the system, the manager etc... can only defend a player so long before he makes you (and himself) look like a *
