I know the cliche of don’t write a player off but he’s literally scored no goals anywhere which as a midfielder is poor. He makes Jason Knight look prolific. This is a strange one for me. Makelele scored about 15 goals in 600 odd appearances and he was as good a holding midfielder ever. Ever. In the history of the game. Your reservations are strange.

In the history of the game. Your reservations are strange. Sometimes, it's not a case of 'how many'. The one that springs to mind for me is Bobby Moncur, captain of Newcastle in the late 60's and early 70's. He scored just 3 goals in 296 games - all of them coming in the 1969 Inter Cities Fairs Cup Final Patrick Rams and RIMBAUD 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rammieib Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 My point is, we’re still not blessed with goals. Bielik chips in with goals for anyone saying it’s a replacement for him. We are not blessed with goals anywhere in this line up Collins aside. It’s a bell of a lot of pressure on him. I hope TB and NML can step up and get close to double digits but the likes of Thompson, Bird, Knight have a goals return ratio which is extremely poor. Even McGoldrick will be a push to get to double digits. Hourihane scored one goal in 29 for Sheff Utd last season. Understand you may disagree with my original post but are people not worried about where our goals will come from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understand you may disagree with my original post but are people not worried about where our goals will come from? Look at some of our favourite CDMs in recent times, in seasons where we were challenging for promotion. George Thorne - 4 goals in 112 league appearances. John Eustace - 2 goals in 48 for Derby Even Bielik who you mention has scored 3 in 48 games, but we haven't been at the right end of the table with him in the side. It's almost as if these players have a different role, and how many goals they score has little to no indication as to where we finish in the table. Any successful side is about balance and getting the right mix of players. If we want goals from midfield, I'm sure we could put the top 3 scoring centre mids in together. I guarantee we'd finish higher if we sacrifice a goalscorer for more balance, though. archram, angieram and LeedsCityRam 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you complain about strikers without good clean sheets or goalkeepers who can’t head the ball? Marc Poom was rubbish at heading the ball...I can only remember him scoring about one goal with his head in his entire career!

I remember him scoring a consolation goal in a 2-1 defeat to Sunderland in injury time. Went like a rocket from miles out and some huge geezer standing behind me dropped his 30 stone frame on me in the crush pinning me to a crash barrier . Ribs were killing for a week.
