Is Naisy our new Cahill?

[Belfast.toffee]

The wee man has a long way to go to gain the legend status of Cahill, BUT he is very similar to him. Non stop work rate, great in the air for a smaller guy and scores goal coming from deep....thoughts?

 

[Goat]

I feel sick that you have even mentioned him in the same sentence.

 

[deipnosophist]

In my opinion? NO

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

Nope

 

[beachy]

No but still rate him.

I like Naismith, but I'm pretty sure he won't come close to Timmy's status among Everton fans. We currently have a number 17 that very well could, though.

 

[sageyefc]

Yes

 

[deipnosophist]

Naismith, to my mind, remains a very limited footballer.

 

[DanB90]

The new Straq perhaps.

 

[DownunderToffee]

Nope.

 

[The Equaliser]

They are different sort of players as Tim was basically a midfielder with fantastic heading ability who ghosted into the box and 4-5-1 was born.

Naisy is more of a forward but I guess the similarity is that he scores important goals like Cahill did.

If he scores a few derby winners beginning next month he may just start to edge into the Cahill bracket.

Like Cahill then

 

[Polish_Blue_Army]

His style is similar, his ability to score in the big games as well, but Tim's goalscoring record was far better

 

[evertony]

Like Cahill then

Not even funny.

Yep, get some big game goals against the likes of the RS and that's how folk remember you. Done my head in last night Naisy but I'm letting him off because he's been decent this season.
