    Not gonna criticise anyone for having a go at the boy. If he's deemed good enough for the first team then he's open to critisicm. However lets remember, he's probably 10 years from being at his peak. 😂

    Yeah, we missed Edwards who is really good in the air.

    I never really read too much into things like this, but did anyone noticed Shankland last night? He didn't even crack a smile, never mind celebrate, after he scored probably the best goal of his life.

    It's not surprising really though is it? Probably sold on being told we were going to build a team around/compliment him, then our new manager realises a lot of that team ain't quite good enough to do this , so changes tactics completely, which in turn alienates one of the best strikers playing in Scotland just now.

    I thought his overall game last night was really good, and was happy to see him link up and bring others in to the game. He has more than one string to his bow. But............. even last night him and Nicky seemed to be getting played behind Louis. I thought it was working well , but (again) if you're meant to be the main man you're meant to be treated like the main man.

    Didn't notice the soor pus last night, as I had jumped up, skelt my beer, haidird my PC screen (beh mistake) and stood ah ower meh shoartie and cheese, (still left fae noo year) coz due to lockdoon, never got a furst fut!!!

    Not disputing what you saw but he was interviewed on the Scottish news and he seemed happy enough.

    Is there even a picture of Shanks with a smile anywhere from anytime?

    The two best goals this season have both been by him.
