    You'll not have to worry about top leagues soon

    I don't think he's a top level striker, so that, along with the life change he's gone through in the last 8 months and the absolute horse sh!te of a team he went to (4 wins all season), it is not bad considering. He still managed to finish their top scorer. If Beerschot fans were expecting some kind of superstar then that's their problem.

    Beerschot relegated though. Ended up 15 points from safety. 5 goals & 4 assists for Shanks. Not bad considering.
    Despite Beerschot being relegated it’s moments like this that demonstrates LS real quality in my opinion. He must be a Scotland pick, far better player than both Dykes and Adams. Paired with Nesbitt up front (when he recovers), a decent strike pairing. Shankland very much a creator as well as a striker. But I expect like Gauld, Clarke will not be keeping an eye on him, even though he must have eyes on Hendry who plays in the same country as LS.

    You on the evostick... FFS the Boy Adams is quality EPL striker...Dykes not the greatest but streets ahead of Shankland...as for the boy Gauld...he must have a great agent will have made a lot of money playing in pub leagues

    Evostick or not, it’s an opinion. Adams 20 goals in 91 appearances is not quality. Mane, Salah are quality. Dykes at best is just above average who managed to get a transfer at the right time when showing goo with QoS. Shankland far more prolific in the same Championship league. Another that believes that EPL and English Championship players must be better quality because of over inflated transfer fees! Gauld is worthy of a Scotland chance as any one. Pub league I think not. I expect you are the type that believes Barry Ferguson was a world class player because he played for Rangers! All about opinions!

    Yeah all about opinions and of course you're entitled to yours and yes depends the breaks you get when you're playing well... But let's be real Gauld probably played the best football of his career at Tannadice...his agent got him a great move to Sporting Lisbon but for whatever reason he never made it....not quite sure where your Barry Ferguson thing comes from he wasn't the best player in his house never mind being World class

    you are such a bawbag, it's tiring. Gauld was in Portugal FFS. Pub league aye? Your shower are in the pub league next season. Lets see if you can see a player of Gaulds calibre down there. Its really cold down there Peter, are you ready for it? Could be a long, long time before you reach the dizzy heights of the SPL again. I wonder if you can still be on here if you are a division below. There would be no point of reference for you.

    theres Peter! Wonderful, insightful stuff as ever. You should try it on your own knuckle-dragging board.

    They wouldn't understand though. Stand aloof!
