I cannot believe after the run we had with Mehmet in the side that anyone wants to put him back in again ahead of Coco or Burke.
He is not a striker.
If we play him, we're relying solely on Sutton to play a striker's role. This leaves us with no-one closing teams down, chasing balls or picking up the scraps.
Why on earth is everyone all of a sudden believing Mehmet's so good when he was hardly good enough for the First Division?
In the last two games without Mehmet, at home to Hearts and away to Killie, we created our three goals from midfield play going into the box. All three were created this way.
ALL THREE were scored by two strikers who've been below Mehmet in the pecking order since the Dunfermline game, injuries or not.
With Mehmet IN the side, the goals we scored were:
One from Vanzy, a one-off fluke if I may say from the right wing. Another two: Lappin ---> Sutton's head ---> back of net. Another - Sutton penalty. Who won the penalty? Corcky.
Ok, Mehmet bagged a goal at Falkirk (a one off on this occasion too ) but look at the difference the past two games with him out of the side.
I'm sorry but he cannot cut it as a striker at this level. He is not good enough and doesn't work with our system, simple as that.
