For me it’s underwhelming because I don’t rate him, think he spends more time trying to get booked.

He’s no going to be a starter and lost his place to Clay for the end of the season.

Hamilton is good enough to have been a regular in an Arbroath team that just missed out on promotion from the Championship and has a strong enough character to have been appointed team vice-captain at a young age. He is worth a place in the team squad and it will be up to him to warrant a regular team place.we


Craig Wighton was also a regular in that same Arbroath team...

Spot on, DA. Just posted something similar on the other thread about Hamilton. He’s a solid squad option and gives Lennon a bit of flexibility,can cover a few different roles which is always useful. At the end of the day, we need a squad, not just a starting XI. Good to have players like him around who can do a job when needed.

c'mon the pars

Wanyama has pulled out of international duties due to "personal commitments".

"At the end of the day, we need a squad, not just a starting XI"

current squad:
Mehmet, Bray, Fisher, Benedictus, S.Young, Ngwenya, Hamilton, Otoo, Ritchie-Hosler, Todd, A.Tod, Kane, C.Young, T.Sutherland.

there are different question marks over every player there but that squad is not good enough never mind a starting XI from it, re-signing Cooper, Wanyama and Oakley-Boothe will not improve it either.

11 Bookings in 31 appearances would suggest this.

Football is all about opinions and this is a forum so I guess there will always be punters that disagree.

I just look at the fact under Lennon he started 2 out of 7 and lost his place to Craig Clay (now released) who never even made match squads under McPake or Tidser.

Happy to be proved wrong of course

I suppose it depends on circumstances. No doubt NL would put a team on the park he thought was best suited to winning the game. It depends on your opponents and what system you want to play. NL wants to play attacking football o I assume his recruitment may determine how he selects the team from the squad he puts together. NL has said you need to have the right attitude, and there were things he observed in his time when he arrived he was not happy with. The right attitude is what makes good players go on to be great players. At 23 CH best games are ahead of him. Personally, I see him in a back 3 or 4. He`s no slouch, and if you are playing attacking football, you need people at the back who can cover ground and defend.

Ngwenya is still under contract, so why would he not be here next season? We need another LW back for sure but Ngwenya has been ok most games. Unlucky with a couple of niggly injuries but he can do a job. Still only 22 a good athlete and a decent player imo..

What an opportunity we missed in 2014.

I thought Ngwenya got better and better throughout the season. Maybe a little injury prone, hopefully benefit from a new training regime under NL.

Because I think he`s not good enough. Offers nothing going forward and not great defensively.

If we are looking for a promotion push, he aint the answer.

Some folk seem to think we have access to so much cash now we can afford to pay up the contracts of any players they don`t fancy!
