Ian Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 He’s on a par with Stevie May just like May never seemed to be able to strike a ball cleanly and his shots would bobble harmlessly wide or in to the arms of the keeper, Da Cruz doesn’t seem to be able to run with the ball without it bobbling and him struggling to keep control.

Greengrass Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I don't know his best position, or where he should play. I still struggle to know where Reach plays and we have had him years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forestieri also seems to have contracted Stevie May syndrome. That or FlickItWithTheOutsideOfTheBootitus.

Weshallovercome Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) Think his best position would be right wing, it'll take him some time to come to terms with the fast closing down in the Champ, on the wing he'll be afforded a bit more time and space. He looks like he's got something, not entirely sure what yet, but he's been okay. Edited February 27, 2020 by Weshallovercome 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopparberg Posted February 27, 2020 Author Share Posted February 27, 2020 Mixed bag of opinions in this thread. I think he’ll do a job - needs time to settle - link up with other players etc... I could see us signing him if Fletch, FF and Nuhiu were to leave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie May has bagged 4 in his last 6 games for St Johnstone. Scored the equaliser against Rangers on Sunday. Da Cruz looks short of that level to me. Strange signing and we’ve put in two much improved performances since he’s come out of the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Strikes me he has urgency, pace and massive desire. Is he any good? Not a clue yet. But not ready to write him off. As for his position, not a Scooby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legendaryswan Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 He was a strange choice when weve sacked off an experienced keeper and a CM,and struggled all season with 3 poor Central defenders,so were Wickham and Windass when FF was comming back and we had 3 other options when most of the time we play one striker,we had two wing options already. Hes certainly no FF,hes MILES off that standard,if theres nowt better in the U23s we must be struggling at youth level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did these new fangled step over things and little end product and I thought “Who is this feckin Ronaldo tossspott?” The lads got desire to the point of anger.

Course it is,had it been early season...............its asking a lot when the seasons halfway through to give an impact to a side thats on its backside and has 15 goals at home,I just feel the side has other issues,too may to list in reality,but the glaring ones werent a winger or striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth a go, but first impressions are not great from where I’m standing. I take your point about Ronaldo, but he was 18 at the time and playing in the Premier League.
