Emerson Thome Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Right, looking forward to Beattie working his magic next season. Iorfa 24 goals in 44 games as our bustling, non-nonsense centre forward, and Van Aken behind him in the number 10 role scoring 14 in 36 with that sweet left foot. Jordan Rhodes as trusty back-up on the bench keeping his thumbs warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pieman Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 15 hours ago, full fathom five said: Should have had Hirsty showing them how, now he was a top top striker He is and will probably always will be my favourite player. However, good players do not automatically make good coaches, in most cases, the opposite. Because they ‘had it’ and lesser players don’t, they often struggle to communicate and very quickly get frustrated and impatient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pieman Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Given the OP, I would like to think this would be a huge positive now in attracting young striking talent to the club. UTO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UTO. It's a good point, certainly a consideration for players and clubs for that matter loaning out players. The work he did with Wood and Adams won't go unnoticed, plus a good player in his day. Its astonishing really, that we've not had a specialist coach (like we do for GK) for such a crucial area of the team. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lythamowl Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 I hope beattie's influence is a good thing for the strikers just one slight problem as far as I can see........we haven't got any strikers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellis Rimmer Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Hopefully if he's highly rated it will be an attraction for strikers to join the club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aplication, work ethic and a hunger to learn and improve. If a player isn't interested or bothered you can have the greatest coach in the world, but they won't learn. Hopefully signing Beattie means we're looking at signing a couple of young /raw strikers we can improve. Failing that premier league clubs will be hopefully more likely to loan us a starlet if they know they're joining a team with a good coaching set up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember him offering, can't recall if the club took him up on his offer. I've lost count of the number of games where we've not looked like scoring, or after conceding first know there is no chance of us scoring more than one, so some coaching up front long overdue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
