Score some goals....not kick some goals Recky.

Anyway who cares and the Sutton pic was excellent so don't worry about it.

That bloody sweaty Jambo put the mocker on Sutton!!!!

I don't see that Sutton offers anymore than McBreen.

 

[Ancient Mariner]

Have not seen anything yet to suggest to me that he should be in front of Bernie, McBreen or even Hearfield (or possibly even Duke).

Hope he proves me wrong but his chances to do that will probably be few and far between from here on in.

Hearfield....are you having a laugh!!!

Only a bit.

Perhaps John Sutton is having a tough time with Australian temperatures, having just come out of the middle of a Scottish winter.

If this is the case, he has absolutely no excuses in China!

 

[Marquee]

Really hope it's just the heat affecting him. I thought he did well against Wellington (on a cool day) but has been anonymous against GCU and Heart. Too early to judge though, lets give him time.

 

[Forum Phoenix]

It is too early. He has shown great touch and strength so far. (Oh and a wilful desire to take pens )

Apart from that he has played tow games, in a tight schedule, against pacey opposition, where we have struggled, and he has struggled to get into the game. That is it.

I just wish we had him longer to allow Clarkey to fine tune hime.
At present his build is more suited to the heavy grounds of Scotland & not the fast playing surfaces we have here.
It will take him a while to adjust.
We just have to be patient.

And hope that he finds his feet in Tianjin.

Is John sutton wolry Wolfe is disquise?

 

[cbowden9000]

Honestly, he looks shit. The opposite of Matt Simon who had plenty of desire and hunger on the field.

I have nothing against the guy as a person and really hope he can prove me wrong.

 

[pjennings]

I ran into him the other day. He seems a nice enough guy. Early in the game on the weekend Musti took a header that he put wide. I would have loved for him to let it go through to John who was sitting a couple of metres to the right of him - loosely marked. I suspect he would have put it away, and I really think this is the kind of service he needs from deep and wide. He is not Matt Simon, and he hasn't suited our nortmal play, but that doesn't mean we can't use him.

Good post as ever PJ.

GA must obviously be seeing something in him in training too.

 

[A.J.V]

Nice guy but simply not up to the standard

 

[Wombat]

Sutton looks far better than Matty did in his first 10-15 games for CCM but he was a local junior. Sutton has a good pedigree and has played a higher standard than HAL.
So what is wrong?
His touch is good and he is physically strong but is movement is poor and his work rate is average.
I'd have picked him as our best partner for Bernie but after sats game...I'm not so sure.
Once he scores the floodgates could open and I'm tipping at training he looks like a legend but he looked lost at times on sat. It's either the formation is different to what he's used to or he is actually shite.
Jury is open on this fella.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Edit: He couldnt cut it a marginally higher level than HAL.

Lazy, unfit and for the wage, we could have actually got someone who remotely looked like they added to the team. On an annualised basis, this guy is on more than Berisha and close to what Archie is on.

Being played to avoid admitting a mistake Id guess.

The Andrea Merendra of strikers

Well his first goal for us was a beauty,I hope he gets more of those while he`s here.
