I honestly think he's slightly wasted here. He's not good enough to play at CM and whilst he's clearly better suited to playing further forward, that's not really a sustainable option for us. Would be quality for a team like Everton or Palace.
What more can be said or written? 10/10 in his four minutes on the pitch.
I think he'd be a very good player as an attacking box to box player at plenty of PL clubs. Similar level to Joelinton at Newcastle, or in at Villa. The problem is trying to use him in a way that doesn't shit him.He often looks shit for us, but which of our players don't. I still stubbornly reckon theres a decent footballer in there somewhere, we're just not finding it.
I agree but ETH seems a bit too conservative for bold experiments. He is no Pep in terms of having the self-belief to play players purposefully out of position.Why not play him further upfront? He’s clearly got goals in him with his physicality and height. Both goals yesterday were proper strikers goals. Midfield isn’t working, we lack goals why not roll the dice and play him up top? Worth a try.
Oh sure enough. Fair game. Get ready for next time then.If you want to quote our rational views that he is probably worth £30m after a bad performance then I can quote you back after a good performance right?
He is not. He is barely involved and not good enough overall. Might be good enough to come on but thats it. 2 goals now wont change thatJust don't pick Scott in a defensive role, he is far more effective in an advanced role, well played Scotty, at least you have desire and a Red heart!

He really shouldn't step foot on the pitch for the club again unless five of those are unavailable.
After yesterday I can only agree. I would have preferred to move him on and that may still be best in the long run but I’m obviously delighted with what he did vs Brentford.I know that many fans do not rate McTominay. But he has a winning mentality and always gives his best, and I think his attitude is so good for the team that I would never sell him, as long as he is okay with his role as squad player.
