What a signing Torp is turning out to be..but is he better than Hamer? I really like his strength, vision and control.. hasn't put a foot wrong yet. When Sheaf is back what a duo that could be..
Agreed on that.. but which would you chose to have in our team?Ridiculous and unfair to even compare. Different players with different styles!
Can we do this more fairly?Agreed on that.. but which would you chose to have in our team?
In the video of him playing in Norway he is skinning players easily so they is the potential for that to come.Totally different players and too early to compare. Hamer was more dynamic on the ball, and his ball carrying was fantastic. Torp looks classier and strong, less rash as well, but he isn't going to dribble past players.
Not too early to tell at all.Too early to tell and they are different types of player but the early signs are we have have a real player there.
But when Hamer first joined us he was a liability.Hamer. Torp not shown the range of passing, technique, speed of thought or goal threat Hamer had yet. I’m sure certainly the latter two will come tho
I've been stung by players who seemed great at first too many times.Not too early to tell at all.
Half of us couldn't even pronounce Hamer's name correctly, so it has to be Torp.
Not sure how you can say that yet.Hamer. Torp not shown the range of passing, technique, speed of thought or goal threat Hamer had yet. I’m sure certainly the latter two will come tho
There were plenty on here saying Hamer was a liability midway through last season after his 2nd red card and they would have happily got rid of him in the January window. He is now being held in such high esteem, including by some of the same fans, based on a fantastic 2nd half of the season.But when Hamer first joined us he was a liability.

Exactly Matt. Very difficult to find even one player in our squad who hasn’t been written off gleefully by one of the self appointed experts on here. In the amazing world of ‘SBT expertise’, forwards should never miss chances, players should never be caught out of position covering for team mates, Maradona technical levels are expected across the pitch and shooting is expected from all corners. If a player fails on any of the above - the meltdown is inevitable and the calls go into the Samaritan’s.Torp, when he hits a tricky patch will no doubt be labelled as overrated and useless to some of our fan base.
When you consider where we were when Robins came back it seems strange to me. SISU took the blame for everything (quite rightfully so) and the players got a free pass because they were crap.Exactly Matt.

That was the season before last…again.There were plenty on here saying Hamer was a liability midway through last season after his 2nd red card and they would have happily got rid of him in the January window.

Hamer was sent off twice last season against Millwall and Birmingham in 1st 7 or 8 league games and afterwards there were many on here wanting him goneThat was the season before last…again.
This is exactly why there's zero chance of any rational and fair debate on here.Torp because he is our player and Hamer is not !!
