Looking very sharp. Couple of decent finishes here.

Always thought there was something to work with. He had speed (sadly lacking in the team now), was direct and could finish.

I remember him scoring a great goal against Kilmarnock cutting in from the flank.

Didn't get much of a run in the team and I think it was a wasted opportunity for both parties.

agree. That's about the size of it.
Was the goal from the flank not against Well in the CIS when we opened the scoring before getting rodgered 4-1?

You're right, it was Motherwell. Think he got a hat-trick against Killie.

He did and he also missed a penalty in that game!

Agreed, strength & pace are where we're sadly lacking. If he hadn't already been at ER I'm sure many on here would be clamouring to sign him based on his recent form!

:agree:

I always thought he was one to work with.

He was miles away from the finished product but there was something about him. He was pacy, direct and could finish when he had the chance. I would have kept him a bit longer than we did.

Think he's found his level in the fourth tier of English football...

Did we not get something ridiculous like 3 penalties in that game - he scored two.......... :confused:

I don't think he ever played that well for us tbh and thought it was the right decision to let him go.

I'd rather have Antoine-Curier back.

Rated as a half a million pound player down south but couldn't really cut it in our league. I remember him playing against Brechin City and thinking he is really quick on his feet. No consistent end product though.
