From today's Guardian. Really heartening to see such support from a manager - similar to Bilic on the Dara O'Shea thread - who appreciates what he brings to the team.
Not long before Roberto Firmino was scoring for Liverpool in the Club World Cup final, the closest thing Sheffield United have to the Brazilian was missing a sitter at Brighton. But, as ever, David McGoldrick made a big contribution to his team’s victory. His intelligence, dynamism and finesse make him a key factor in their rise up the table. And one of these days he will score his first Premier League goal. “The roof will come off when he does,” Chris Wilder said. “He makes us play, he makes us tick. Out of possession, in possession, he’s a really good player. Another one we got who was going nowhere and he’s absolutely fantastic for us. The majority of fans know what the game is about … and if he was a pretender our punters would have definitely found him out and isolated him. And he isn’t. The roof will come off when he scores. It’s coming.”

I actually like the idea of both of them, on form, being in the team, even if the goals are like hen's teeth. But regardless, we need to get Connolly on the pitch one way or the other if he's fit.

LONG McGOALDROUGHT
That is the striking partnership that would sum up the Irish National football team of the last few years.

Mcgoldrick is playing well despite the lack of goals, it would seem that shane Long has played well over the last couple of games too.
If ireland play Long and mcgoldrick up front in the next game and one of them scores, such a singularly may cause the universe to go supernova and it could very well trigger the apocalypse and the end of humanity. If it means we score though... |

If there was ever a chance that summed up all of our misfiring strikers, it was McGoldrick's one against Denmark when he put it over the bar. He didn't realize that he had more time to take his shot and place it better or least hit the target. Schmeichel gave off sh*te to his defenders for giving such a good chance away that really should've been scored.
I know our strikers are devoid of service from our midfield but I've seen enough of players like McGoldrick and Long at both club and international level that they simply aren't poachers. They miss too many chances when they do get them. I think Maguire gets far too much criticism on here for not being international class when he hasn't played well or been effective in Ireland games but for me he's the only one (albeit at club level) that looks a natural finisher. I've always been impressed by his finishing for Preston when he does get the goalscoring chance and would back him above any of our current strikers to score if given chances against Slovakia.

ah O Shea while your argument is absolutely valid based on goals per minutes is 100% statistically correct.
Goals per game is a far better measurement of where the player is actually at if he Plays 4 games and only scores in 1. That is the actually measurement per game where his goals had an impact on the game. Moving to goals per minute looks more impressive but the long and the short of it Is he still only gets a goal 1 In every 4 games. Either way he doesn’t score enough goals

Again, made what exactly? There's nothing infallible about McGoldrick, I think it's more your own ego that feels infallible because clearly it can't take being proven incorrect.

McGoldrick must know that he has made it, now that he is on O’Shea’s list of infallible players.

You really don't have a monkeys what you're on about, do you? Attempting to "subvert reality" would be an attempt to misrepresent the facts of a situation; in a lot of ways that exactly what the "goals to game ratio" measure does, because failing to score in a one minute appearance is represented as being equal to failing to score in 90 minutes. Measuring a player on "goals to minutes" is the exact opposite of "subverting reality" because it actually makes a much better attempt of correctly representing the facts. If you can't grasp that on its most basic level, or you're simply kicking up a fuss because you love to kick up a fuss at everything I say, then you really aren't worth arguing with.
