    We can still sign free agents, can we not ? If either of them get an injury, I would hope it's something we look at. We can't aim to go through a full season with Ryan Christie as 3rd choice striker.

    He is more like an attacking midfielder than a striker

    I think if we're playing a team that come put and have a go, he's ideal as a lone striker but agree he's better suited to some kind of attacking midfield role in other circumstances. We should be looking at another striker to pair up with him or Griffiths as I think they both can look a bit lost upfront on there own.

    Really beginning to question his attitude. There doesnt seem to be any intensity or desire to his play.
    Which is a shame because he clearly has ability. Needs to start showing why big money was paid for him.

    : "Hopefully that’s a partnership going forward. If Odsonne and I can fit into the same team then that’s great but if not then one of us will be champing at the bit to get in the side.

    Will come good..griff scores that header and partnerships off to a flyer. Think he suits playing against more open teams where he can run in behind. Early days so not losing faith in him yet.

    Doesn't look interested to me. Tonight he looked and played like he'd rather be elsewhere.

    Boy has lost his creative spark, and i have a feeling his price tag isn't doing much to help him either. He's a brilliant talent who we've overpayed for slightly because we feel he can be very good for us, but at the same time playing with two strikers is risky atm, so i'd like Edouard to do what he done for the majority of last season and be an impact sub, at least until he regains his form.

    Just something about the way he carries himself, the arrogance. It's fine if you're banging them in but otherwise it creates an appearance of someone who is nonchalant.
    Also not sure he's a wide man. In the first half when KT overlapped a few times his weight and judgement on the pass was poor and it usually ended up with a St Johnstone player.
    We need to find a way to get him in space and utilize his speed.
    Theres a player there, lets find a way of bringing it out more.

    Very very poor game
    Maybe he’s sad now Moussa * off
    Haven’t watched him perform for ages now. A concern. He wasn’t cheap...

    I still think he will come good. Once he gets a goal or two his confidence will spike and he will be banging them in.

    If the price tag bothers him just remind him a few miles down the road and * 2nd tier players go for double :56:

    He’s well off the boil but it’s to be expected.

    Folk suggesting we miss Moussa off the back of criticising Eddy forget that he was the EXACT same for large chunks of his time here.

    I thought he showed a few promising signs early game, certainly looked a lot more willing and capable of running at players off the wing than Sinclair has, think it's well worth giving griffiths and him a run together like this instead of writing it off and going back to just playing one of them.

    He needs a run of games and a few goals, still only 20 and a lot to learn. Add in the pressure now he cost 9M, he’ll come good.

    Moose took time to settle and hoping Eddy is just finding being the main man a little daunting

    He is not a lone striker so we need to do something to help him
