McBurnie played wrong.

What was the standing ovation from the kop all about?! I thought he was dreadful (again) yet he got clapped off like some kind of hero! Bizarre.

Best part about that was when a small section at the back of the Kop started singing his song.

“Scoring 8 goals in 95 appearances in the red and white” doesn’t quite have the same ring to it.

That first one is a prime example of what I am talking about.

Yep and I presume that's why we paid so much for him. He's never been anywhere near that for us, regardless of where he plays. What do you see in his performances that make you believe he retains any of that verve or ability?

McGoldrick is a lovely footballer, the frustration with him is how many superb chances he misses. McBurnie doesn't even miss the chances. Most strikers have dry runs, and Gary Lineker once had one, and he said "I'm not worried, I'm doing the right things, it's just that the ball isn't going in the net at the moment". Can McBurnie honestly say the same? He doesn't even get in a position to miss.

This feels a lot like the season we got to the play offs and had Craig Beattie "spearheading" the attack. Compared to McBurnie, Beattie looks prolific. Oh dear.......

He doesn’t move like they anymore...wonder what he does in training?
