A question to one and all on here ?How good do we reckon tom lawrence is and should we definitely be keeping him after this season ?Who is the better/ more talented attacking midfielder/ no.10 cantwell or lawrence ?.
05 may 2024 18:46:08
neither is good enough to win a league title, both capable of a flash pan peice of magic, neither top quality.
05 May 2024 18:48:53
One goal didn’t change the fact he had been poor one year left on deal needs sold in the summer.
05 May 2024 18:49:23
I think we need better than both.
05 May 2024 18:49:27
Not for me swaggers about like billy big baws and hardly ever produces, great strike today but not good enough for me get rid.
05 May 2024 18:50:13
In reality neither are good enough to be starters. Lawrence is a better finishers but has the rate of a 60 year old chain smoker.
Cantwell has the tricks of Dinamo but is pretty much ineffective and can’t influence a game good enough to justify a starting position next year.
I’d start Cantwell next week as Lawrence was a key bed wetter in the last old firm.
05 May 2024 18:55:11
He scored an absolute belter today but neither Tom or Todd are good enough if we want to be challenging for titles.
Tom has great technique and is also a very intelligent player but tbh doesn’t have the legs to play full tilt for 60-90 mins every week.
Todd has a good engine but isn’t effective enough. Doesn’t influence the outcome of matches nearly enough and tbh is quickly becoming another Josh Windass (Maybe that’s a bit harsh ?)
We don’t need flicks, tricks or no look passes. We need assists, goals and wins!
05 May 2024 18:58:44
I think both are very good players who both bring something different to our team. I want to see both kept. Cantwell oozes class, a natural footballer, but sometimes not enough end product, whereas Lawrence can be a bit more direct.
05 May 2024 19:00:23
Think both need to add more goals to their game along with consistency. I’d like to see Cantwell be more direct and Lawrence to find the form he had when he first signed.
05 May 2024 19:11:06
I'd start Lawrence next week.
05 May 2024 19:11:57
Cantwell is a better player, think Lawrence only has another year left, Clement said no player will be out of contact with him.
05 May 2024 19:18:56
I really like Lawrence but fitness and ability to consistently play 90 mins an issue. He was superb when he came on today and scored an absolute beauty.
05 May 2024 19:19:04
Sir Walter, I think it’s who’s the more effective rather than talented that matters.
05 May 2024 19:32:26
Sws tbh neither if we want to get back on top just look at assists or goals compared to oreily.
05 May 2024 19:04:01
What's your opinion ED, if you don't mind me asking mate ? Who for you is the more talented attacking midfielder/ no.10 between todd cantwell and tom lawrence ?.
{Ed001's Note - not a fan of either. Neither should be anywhere near the team.}
05 May 2024 19:34:16
I like both, but, Lawrence is undoubtedly talented as is Cantwell, for me TL could up his consistency a bit, he shows in glimpses what he's capable of, would like to see more if he can avoid injury, TC can be very good and covers a lot of ground, other times his head gets the better of him and he gets involved in petty squabbles, the boy has talent and should concentrate on that and increasing his game influence a level or 2, would keep both as cover for each other.
05 May 2024 19:40:34
Tbf SWS Wishy makes a fair point further down the page but, it's a fair poser your asking mate?.
05 May 2024 19:57:22
No for me. Doesn't do it nearly often enough, feel like I've been waiting for him to take it to next level for months but never does. He also doesn't make the starting 11 enough. Tom is good at shooting, not mobile enough. Todd for me.
05 May 2024 19:59:10
I was all for him but he too has had his injuries and hit and cold games I’m not sure how much more of him is to come or has he already hit his ceiling?
If so I’m looking for better and sorry to say same goes with Cantwell hot and cold in games as we have seen
I’m not sure what PC will do with them both going forward especially if any decent offers come in I think both replacable if they went
Im at a stage I’m fed up watching players blow hot and cold for our club i'm not looking for extraordinary performances but I’m looking for committed players who play to decent levels throughout the season trying their best for the club and fans that pay their high wages
Not much to ask I don’t think ?
Suppose we will see what happens with both during the summer I won’t lose sleep if they both went and I won’t lose sleep if PC thinks their good enough to move us forward by staying.
05 May 2024 20:10:06
More end product in Lawrence. One of the few who can shoot from outside the box. Not sure if he has the legs to last a whole game with the pressing and tracking back however currently.

Whilst at the game yesterday, it came up on the screen about bidding for a match worn shirt from your hero. To be honest, i couldn't think of one players shirt i would be happy to bid for.
