Him , including us ...he is certainly showing he knows the way to goal. Those that know his play say he is a pure poacher ...doesn’t even try to chase back - but know where the goal is ..sounds like one of those things go that we are missing ..

Hecky does not currently appear to prefer playing more than one forward at the moment Kamberi / Shaw on bench on Saturday.
Despite a creditable draw v Celtic I personally prefer 2 upfront as scoring goals normally win games.

I also agree about going with two forwards.

People keep saying they're "surprised no other clubs went for him". I'm sure plenty clubs did but he's on silly money at Utd who are taking a big gamble hoping he drags them up.
Looks to be a gamble that could pay of big time for Utd so fair play, however, it doesn't mean other clubs weren't there or there abouts.
If rumours are correct then we'd have likely had to make him the best payed player at our club to have brought him here, that would have been madness.

The problem is even if we signed him- because we are hardly creating any chances or scoring goals he would be lucky to have more than 3 goals to his name at this stage of the season if he had joined us, we would all be saying he isn't good enough.
To this day I still think we should have kept Simon Murray, not saying he's better than Shankland but he put in a good shift and scored goals, I think he could have became a million pound player.

Called up for Scotland. Let’s hope he does great.

Aye, I agree guys 👍 least it’s something different from playing Matt Phillips.

People have blamed the midfield for not getting on the end of Doidges headers or not getting up the park quick enough when the way we play gives no support to the forward. Maybe it worked a few times when we had Sproule off Gaz or Killen but one up top punting it to them very rarely works with no pace coming from midfield.

Coupled with the fact that Ayr went into freefall it is hardly surprising he dropped off the radar and only DU were willing to sign him.
Anyway good luck to the lad and well done on the Scotland call up. Fair play to Steve Clarke for recognising his start to the season.

As others have said got to be worth a shot ahead of Philips. Still think mcburnie can improve for us and fill the nuisance role up front but doesnt look like scoring much at this level.
