Jamie Gullan

[Seveno]

This young man deserves more game time and I was surprised that he did not get a start yesterday with Doidge being out.

He showed real class with both his run and finish for his goal and clearly has goals in him.

[Robbo6-2]

From the outside looking in hes not getting a fair crack at it.

[Onceinawhile]

He's not an out and out striker though, he's more of a left sided forward / midfielder.

So instead of replacing doidge, he's more in line to replace Murphy or Magennis. Given they are two of our marquee signings so far this year, unless we play a 4-3-3 there isn't necessarily a position in the team for him.

Would do a far better job than the boy Wright😳

I'm not sure that Boyle is an out and out striker either.

Dunno like. He looks like a finisher to me.

Being a good finisher doesn't make a striker tbf.

[wookie70]

He looks good coming in off the left. Good option and means Murphy can play at full tilt and we can bring on Gullan when he tires. Jamie, Daz and Mallan are the only ones who looked like they wanted into the first team during the cup games

It didn’t do Deeks any harm 👍

A lot of his best football was coming from the left tbh.

The point is, Gullans best football has been from the left. His finishing ability has no effect on his best position imo. Some deadly finishers have been midfielders/wingers.

[J-C]

Doesn't matter if he's an out and out striker, attacking mid or best off the left, the fact is he's a pretty decent option to have and knows where the goal is. Ronaldo and Messi are not real strikers but have scored hundreds between them, Ronaldo started as a winger and Messi as an attacking mid. Gullan is a good prospect learning his trade and for me should be getting more game time and as far as I'm concerned he should be ahead of Wright for a starting spot.

I think that Gullan and Nisbet partnership up front might be worth a try. They are both young with loads of energy and goal scoring ability.

Doidge shouldn’t be getting dropped though.

If it makes the team better, why not? It’s all about a squad game as you ram down people’s throats all the time 😘

I can’t see Jack trying it if he didn’t the games against the lower league hearts opponents. Get you though.

Can’t recall ‘ramming’ anything about squads?

Anyway, it wouldn’t make the team better just now dropping Doidge, that’s why we shouldn’t be doing it.

I have full confidence hammer will make it. Most confidence since fletcher then Cummings even when he missed that pen. He’s got it and needs his chance mate. Cummings wouldn’t have been scoring at Ibrox and pbs year before. It’s a tough one because we are good up top but Gullan will make us potentially more money they Doidge or Murphy. Thank god im not the manager (aye and so are many too)

Yesterday would have been the time to try out Nisbet and Gullan but obviously Wright was preferred. Good for Jamie to score as will give him a boost and hope he starts getting more game time from the bench in upcoming games.

Why not? He's largely not been at it this season so far. If he's not scoring he doesn't offer any creativity, I like him.but he's not indispensable.

Not all the time,🤔Wright has been used on the wing as well, something Gullan has also done, but what position is Wright suited for ??

[500miles]

Gullan, like Murphy and Wright, is best at operating in a front 3, off a central striker. Probably decent at the tip of a midfield diamond as well

If he doesn’t score Doidge always offers a lot. His aerial prowess allows us to get the ball forward and for it to stick.

I'm afraid he doesn't offer a lot very often and the ball rarely sticks.

Gullan in my view is a better option. He is a far better finisher. When the team play the ball into the box on the floor as they did 3 times to score in the 2nd half against Dundee he is better equipped than Christian to knock in a chance.

No disrespect to Gullan but all of that is nonsense.

Not at all for me. Doidge was on course for over 20 goals last season. Gullan is nowhere near that level yet.

What is there to suggest he is a far better finisher? I'd say Doidge is the far better and more proven finisher.

Doidge offers a lot. Seriously, if we play without him against anyone decent, you'll notice. Gullan has a long way to go yet.

Well he isn’t going to score many goals sitting on the bench.

[Since452]

Gullan is a decent young player but I still maintain we need a better option from the bench if we want to be challenging Aberdeen. No way in the world he should be starting ahead of Doidge. Crazy talk.
