He's certainly a great little player and a real handful, played in the right position.

But he wasn't today. He fed off scraps and got bullied. Not his fault at all. He's never a number nine. He's what us old ba***rds call "an inside forward"

Our opponents today like many we have faced recently, were taller, stouter, stronger, fitter and younger. It was easy for them to cancel him out, aided by a lenient referee who had clearly never ever played up front. He seemed to view the knocking Kyle about benignly as part of the rough and tumble. It isn't. Bigger men pushing and shoving smaller men over is just cheating.

I feel that Jardine lurking behind or alongside someone who can give it back in the rough stuff like Danico or Aaron might produce more goals. Or even Danico and Kyle switching frequently during a game. Leaving the poor sod on his own and pumping high balls up to him is a waste of resource imho.
