This May can only play with a big striker....
"May " or May" not be true...
However, watch the Youtube video of his 27 goals in season 2013/2014. Vast majority of those goals are feck all to do with Steven Mclean. Most of them seem to be with him linking with his midfield, one twos etc etc.
Seemed a lot more arrogant in them days (in a good way) Played with a smile on his face.
I suppose goals does that to you.
Thinking back to the Dundee game 11 months ago, at home. Two terrific trademark Stevie May goals. What the feck has happended since?
Can't ALL be The Rat's fault?
I suppose any footballer needs confidence, maybe moreso a striker.
The chance he missed last night, where he only needed to re-divert the great ball in, that was a chance he’d have taken more than likely if he’d scored a few recently.
Catch 22.
He needs games & goals, but when he plays he’s a passenger.
Not necessarily a big striker but another striker,there are better strikers than him that can’t play up front on their own either.
Not much chance of him getting to do that here under McInnes,same for Moult if he signed so he would be better off trying to sign a decent striker who can play up front on his own.
putting the '83 May' on his back was a huge psychological error, as others have pointed out
does he wear a different number now
May's issues look to be more psychological than lack of ability. He pulls out of 60/40 tackles and is scared to get stuck in. That of course could be down to injuries he has sustained throughout his career, but if he has any chance of resurrecting his scoring days he is going to have to man up a bit.
With the likes of Mcginn and GMS on top form, there should be no excuse this season if he isnt scoring goals. Same can be said for Cosgrove as well. Im not going to bang on about it, but selling Rooney when we have just looked to have found a decent pairing on the wings again, is criminal. I actually think we might get something out of Cosgrove in a 2 up top formation (nae laughing at the back), but May is looking worse than Maynard was.
Definitely need a new striker in before Sunday, but im not hopeful. A loan spell from Moult doesnt inspire me with confidence either. Would much prefer something much more permanent or else we back here again in January or next season. Chuck in young Bruce Anderson, i guarantee he bags more goals than SM and SC ever will. Either that or bring back Shankland.
