I just want to win games and trophies and that is more likely with a fit again Aribo, a fully fit Roofe and Alfie staying. That;s it for me as a fan....the politics is not in it for me.
Exactly, the guy has played about 2 games worth of minutes. If he’s still drawing a blank after 12 games then maybe it’s a Cascarino type signing. Some just don’t work. Far too early to judge.You’re jumping the gun and being completely unreasonable, let’s be honest.
What did you think about Morelos when he was seen as many, including our Manager as a backup to Eduardo Hererra?I think he's a 'target man' and that's not how we play. If it was, I don't think he looks strong enough to play that role in the SPL.
I don't see that 'cutting edge', being in the right place, the nice touches or instinctively taking a shot.
Sure it's early doors but so far there's not been a glimmer of that.
His career is not a career that has shown growth, is actually gone in reverse before us. He went from Basel to St Gallen, that's like going from us to Alloa.
The Swiss league is believe it or not is a worse league than the SPL.
He's had 2 caps and scored, against Georgia and Gibraltar.
I find it a bizarre signing considering we were potentially looking for a Morelos replacement.
As I said I don't think he's a bad player, I just don't think he's at our level.
Maybe I'm wrong.
Correct, you have to wonder how some of the drama-ramas on here cope with life.Calm down it’s far from toxic ffs some don’t think he is good enough is not toxic and they can be proved wrong over time.
Because people rightly or wrongly don't see his replacement as being anywhere near as good as him.
People really dont need to do anything, Itten has a great goal scoring record in a league thats comparable in quality to the SPL, yet the armchair experts in this place have him written off after under 2 hours of football. The comparison is legitimate regardless of pedigree.
The truth is for every goal Morelos scores a further 2 shots are well wide, 2 well over the bar and 2 shots on target so weak a blind keeper could save them.
Might upset a few people but thats my view on him.
As would I, but given his previous behaviour it would be extremely dangerous if we got a sizeable bid from somewhere and we rejected it. The toys could go out the pram again quite easily.Losing him would weaken the squad we have now. Unless we can guarantee we can bring in someone who will be as good as him and fit straight into the team (which we can't) then it's always going to be a huge risk selling him.
I would rather always keep our best players.
Did you watch Ally McCoist play for Rangers? He wouldn’t have been far off that level himself.
You’re jumping the gun and being completely unreasonable, let’s be honest.
Itten is a flop let’s be honest. Some transfers work some don’t he will be away on loan in January and gone at end of season

this is what is wrong with some of our support, our worst enemy they don’t even want any player too succeed and we could dish out a beating and there would still be complaints, honestly laughable.Where do you even start with this pish ^
Wit is this pish, away chase yerself!Itten is a flop let’s be honest. Some transfers work some don’t he will be away on loan in January and gone at end of season
Bet you’re absolutely ragin.Itten is a flop let’s be honest. Some transfers work some don’t he will be away on loan in January and gone at end of season
Still early days. But glad to eat my words hope he builds from this and scores plentyWit is this pish, away chase yerself!
number 1 we bought two players to replace him and play a different way more suited to the players we have around him (Hagi, Kent, Borna, Tav)
Number 2, they have hardly kicked a ball yet and Roofe has scored a couple. Deciding about Itten - who has had injury interruptions - now is one of those things a section of our fan base does and personally I choose to call it out....because it’s absolutely appalling behaviour
and number 3: Alfie has been overweight and disinterested from the start of the season. I could understand this thread a bit more if he’d actually done something this calendar year worthy of such childish loyalty. How this gets away with his behaviour is beyond me.
and BTW - because not everything has to be a zero sum matter - that doesn’t mean I don’t think Alfie can and has been a wonderful player for us and asset. If he stays and we can afford to improvethe areas of the team that need it - great. but if we end up with Alfie switching off in January because he didn’t get his move again and we still don’t have a dominant and driving midfielder... I’m bookmarking this thread to come back and have a word with some of you :-/

Come on 2 goals in a game where we are 3 goals up already doesn’t make you a star ! It’s a start though but it’s scoring important goals at important times in big games that will the test now for Itten I sincerely hope he can build on those two goals and goes on to be a top striker for us. But let’s not get carried away just yet it’s the first encouraging stepsAnd to just forget you can't judge a player to save your life? Maybe keep your opinion of players to yourself as you clearly don't have a clue. But you won't and you'll continue to make a fool of yourself.
Fair enough mate, was actually thinking about thisStill early days. But glad to eat my words hope he builds from this and scores plenty
It doesn't make him a star but you don't write a guy off as a flop after 200 minutes of football.Come on 2 goals in a game where we are 3 goals up already doesn’t make you a star !
