HenryKrinkle Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Is sammon good in the air?? Doesn't seem to win much in the way of aerial battles and has he managed a header on goal yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulcanRam Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Sammon for me, think he's a good signing despite his powder puff efforts at goal against Burnley! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uptherams Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I think Davies' conversion rate is a lot higher then Sammons so far, I think if them two chances on Saturday and presented themselves to Davies he would of scored both of them, but like someone said above, Sammon might get this back with match fitness/sharpness. Only time will tell Clough was quoted as saying that against Charlton, Sammon ran further than anyone, even Bryson. The point is those chances wouldn't have occurred for Davies, Sammon has great positional play off the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stedcfc Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Just needs a bit of confidence. He's surprisingly fast for his size. For too many games Savies went missing for 30 odd mins and did very little for the team. Good in front of goal though. I'd take the fish. We need someone who can hold the ball up with the midfield we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samtheram83 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Sammon's link up play so far has been very good and he's got himself in good attacking positions. Has anyone seen Davies at Bristol? Think he scored his first goal recently. I think even with injuries Davies is capable of 15 goals a season. I think Sammon could get that many and looks more suited to our game this year. I'm perfectly happy with Sammon to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 So far Sammon has been fit for all of the matches we've played since we've signed him. If he continues that for a season, he's a very valuable asset. Fitness is as important as talent over the course of 46 games. No point having a brilliant striker sitting on the treatment table and having to pick a clueless reserve instead. In truth, if Sammon plays every game 6/10 for the whole season he'll actually bring more to the team than Savies did. Or Commons, actually! Not if he misses a hatfull everygame resulting in us drawing blanks and picking up 1 or 0 points over many games.. Goes back to those that say they'd rather a steady eddie for 46 games than a flash in the pan who only shows up for 1/3 games.. Well that all depends on whether the steady eddie actually contributes towards a winning team or whether he consistantly pulls his weight in a winning team.. A steady eddie in a losing team is no good to anyone. Time will only tell whether Sammon makes his mark and whether or not he helps us win games.. Savies might score more, but that won't make him a better player, the better player ill be the one who pulls his weight all over the pitch and who helps create a winning team.. (Drogba over Daniel Sturridge is the best example I can find when the better player actually scored less goals last season) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uttoxram75 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Well I wouldn't consider someone who misses at hatful of chances as giving a 6/10 performance. If he helped to create those chances himself by his speed, aggression and work rate then you could easily give a good rating. If his presence allows others to nick a goal then its even better. So far so good for Sammon for me. Bit more match fitness to come but already a handful for defences. He will smash a goal in tomorrow, I feel it in me watter......

Abu Derby Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I think that Sammon will rise to the occasion tomorrow, and will net a couple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
