Even though I cannot stand the man (for obvious reasons) naismith reminds me of nick barmby in his style of play. Was impressed by his intelligant running and eye for a goal.

Obvious reasons?

He means barmby, not Naismith..... Please keep up!!!

My cousin up in Glasgow has said that the only reason we got Naismith is because we didn't put him through a medical. He is on a low wage for a year until he proves his fitness then we can either let him go or he is due a BIG pay rise. My cousin doesn't need to lie about this he works for the spl legal department.

Although he signed a 4 year contract?

To one of The repliers... We did do a medical because of his knee, we would not of signed an injured player who can't play and we spend lots of money on to get him fixed. A anterior cruciate ligament injury is one of the worst and in some cases can cause early retirement to players. Also we would check his heart to see if he had any defects... He also talked about his medical in his first interview and so did Moyes.................

TC

I have heard the same up in Jockland apart from the no medical part, the medical showed up what could be long term damage so he has been signed on a lower wage with a big pay rise if he has an injury free first year.To the guy talking about him signing a 4 year contract I don't see anyone questioning that, all that has been said is that his contract will be reviewed at the end of next season. The reason Rangers aren't fighting Naismith's departure is because they couldn't afford to pay to insure him if he had stayed there. He will be a fantastic player if he stays fit but it doesn't look good going with his injury record.

What a legend hibbert is, we should now refer to him as sir hibbert. Imagine if this opens up the doors and hibbert starts scoring belters from the right.
*against man u*
Baines swings in a corner but vidic heads it away. It only manages to get to hibbert he whacks the ball. WHAT A GOAL IN OFF THE CROSSBAR.

But I also have to mention Naismith. 30 minute hat trick, he is gonna become a star and also pienaar who got 3 assists, setting up Naismith. The future is blue.
Blue Kaz

Pienaar's pass to set up Naismith's first goal was absolutely magnificent

Hi Ed, and Blues just to shed some light on the Jagielka situation Moyes said that he had a tight hamstring not that he's leaving so Jags is staying as far as we know Dan1

I don't like posting about negatives but I think alot of you will agree that Coleman needs moving on. It's clear that he lacks the skill needed at this level.

He has all the heart in the world but not the skill unfortunately. Sell him for a couple of mil and that would be good business.

Toffee ace

If he lacks the skill at this level, how on Earth do you think is he worth two million? And don't say, for example, what about Andy Carroll costing £35M...it's about who at a lower level, i.e. Championship or below, could afford £2M for a player like Coleman.
Concerned Citizen

Prior to his injury he played as well as anybody!.. Seems to me, that he lacking confidence! but not ability! I,m sure one good game and he will be back in the flow! personally I would give hime another year!.because his a attitude is good and whants to do well, So yes! give him more time........jmff

What are you basing this on Ace?

He looked brilliant last night when he came on, two quality passes to Jelavic (disappointing again last night and to Guaye who again looked good in his substitute appearance). Yes he had a second season dip but the whole team struggled last season until post christmas, even toward the tail end of last season he started to look good.

Sorry mate got to disagree, give him time he will continue to develop.

Mike aintree

I thought he did alright last night in the testimonial, couple of good passes in the second half, more than what he did last season, so hopefully hes back to his best.

ewefc

I dissagree with your post. I say he is young and only get rid of someone when you have someone better lined up. Otherwise you end up with a too small squad. Who is his replacement and when are they signing?

I don't like having a go and being negative either but - come on - he's no better than a div 2 player - he literally does nothing of any use - watch him - it's like having a non player on the pitch - if he gets it the most he does is pass it back to hibbo or maybe inside sideways - never beats a man - hardly any good crosses - most of the time he just gets it taken off him - if he can play for everton so can I!
It's not his fault but now we've got 10 other good players out on the pitch and we're pushing for a euro slot then moyes really has to do something about this right wing position - we have no threat from there at all - unless he plays naismith there - but I thought naismith was meant to play behind jela

we should sell him to blackpool where he played well at right back - a win win all round

ps I'm trying to like anichebe but I wish he would stop that 'spoilt child' face and manner he pulls whenever anything he tries doesn't come off (every few minutes) - it's like everytime he gets the ball he loses it or he miss kicks it or something else 'not his fault' happens and there it is again - the 'face' and body language shouting "I can't believe that just happened - I would have scored if only that (etc etc) defender hadn't robbed the ball off me - or if I just hadn't shot it 5 yards wide" then two minutes later same thing - then five minutes later another "can't believe my luck" hard done moment and the 'face' reappears - Vic - it's YOU mate - practice your skills and stop moaning that you're not first name on the teamsheet

Totally agree! He is only any good overlapping and running onto the ball. Doesn't have the touch or strength with ball to feet. A good squad player but never a starter! If someone offered £2m i would take it.

Wow. That got a reaction. I'm basing my opinion on last night and last season.

Two passes to Jelavic not enough to convince me. Actualy his final ball is too often poor. To get a good balance to the team you need Pienaars quality on both sides and I'm sorry but Coleman is way short.

I agree he got injured, I agree he is low on confidence. But we have to be honest when putting out a team and he is week.

Maybe I'm being critical here, just don't think he is good enough. If I'm wrong it will be a nice surprise.
