Libertine Posted 5 November 2006 Share Posted 5 November 2006 He's had a little run recently and a few sub appearances, but nothing major. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuliasz Posted 5 November 2006 Share Posted 5 November 2006 After a poor start, he was frozen out for the second half of last season but due to the fact we have no-one else, he's been given a chance again in the last month or so and in my opinion has renewed enthusiasm and looks ok although most will probably disagree with me.

Terry the Terror Posted 5 November 2006 Author Share Posted 5 November 2006 What I remember of him when he was at St Johnstone is he has a nice bit of skill and is quite quick but he was also a dirty bastard and would foul quite a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's never really tackled anyone, so I dunno how he could possibly have fouled anyone for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting you say that, he never really tackled anyone at Celtic either, but at St Johnstone he was a dirty ****. MON must have trained it out of him.

MON must have trained it out of him. Heh. Well, whatever MON did, he's clearly never been the same player. You guys are more than welcome to him - Levein did insist on using Sylla week in, week out, so I'm sure he'd be better off up there getting first team football instead of an occasional cameo appearance here for us. If our other right winger wasn't quite so shit, Sylla would have been condemned to the reserves and wouldn't have returned as he has done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry the Terror Posted 5 November 2006 Author Share Posted 5 November 2006 We've actually got a really good right winger at the moment - Craig Conway. We got him from 2nd division Ayr United in the summer, bit of a bargain really. I dont think we'll be taking Sylla off your hands, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He used to be not bad, what's happened to him? I guess he was a bit skinny but he was a good passer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookwhaticando Posted 5 November 2006 Share Posted 5 November 2006 Is that the ex-Rangers guy? He used to be not bad, what's happened to him? I guess he was a bit skinny but he was a good passer. The very same. We coughed up a wedge for him, he started well, but he's looked a bit shite for the last season and a half. His first 'season' with us was a half-season (January 05 onwards) and he looked good value. What happened since then is anyone's guess - some say he's still quite lightweight. Some think he's not the right kind of player we need in the middle - we need a creator and Hughes doesn't seem to fit the bill... If you offer us cold hard cash for him, you can have him - I'm sure he'd look much better at Dundee than he does at Leicester. Need a goalkeeper, coincidentally? How about a right back?

Terry the Terror Posted 5 November 2006 Author Share Posted 5 November 2006 Right back? Maybury? I never liked him when he was at Hearts. Our left winger used to run rings araound him and then get fouled... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wils Posted 5 November 2006 Share Posted 5 November 2006 Basically we just got a load of rejects from the SPL that Levein thought could take us up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it always worries me when a manager starts signing loads of players from his previous club. Distinct lack of research at work when that happens.

BartonFox Posted 6 November 2006 Share Posted 6 November 2006 Sylla suffered from the same prejudices Kisnorbo et al did and he took it worse than everyone else, admittedly he was lazy on a few occassions buit no worse than some of the 'established' hereos down here. He is far from my favourite but he is our best option at right midfield by a country mile, sadly our manager wouldn't know a wide player if he walked up and kicked him square in the nuts while wearing a neon sign stating he was a wide player. He was excellent against Villa and showed Gareth Barry exactly why he'll never play for England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reynard Posted 6 November 2006 Share Posted 6 November 2006 Or is he rooted in the reserves like he was at Celtic? sadly he gets the odd game but he's rooted mainly to the ground most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
