ponsaelius Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 It's disrespectful to McTominay to compare the two, tbh. Nolan was a bottom half PL player and athlete. McTominay has performed at CL and international level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 (edited) Nolan was really only a second striker and a very useful one. As a midfielder he was dire and is probably only not mentioned among some of our worst because we also had Smith, Geremi, Faye and Butt around that time.

et tu brute Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Did people not watch his performances in the last two league games up here. He was beyond embarrassing.

Astroblack Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 (edited) Kevin Nolan has 69 Premier league goals. I’d be surprised if Mctomminnay gets half of that over the course of his career. But he sure as hell ain’t getting 69. Edited December 7, 2023 by Astroblack Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Nolan scored most of them playing as a second striker. He was basically a shite midfielder, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McTom is scoring most of his goals ghosting into the box when teams are on their knees in the last 20 minutes(see Brentford) As a midfielder, McTomminnay is a hider, doesn’t have the touch to clear the ball out of his feet and pick a pass. you know what, the more I think about it, Nolan and McTomminay are good comparisons but Nolan got a lot more out of his body that I think Mctom has the ability to do.

ponsaelius Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Lets be serious, he's far less of a 'hider' than Nolan was. Don't even know why I'm arguing this because I'm not Mcsauce's biggest fan but he's played lots of games for a team competing at CL level. Nolan wasn't even much of a central midfielder in the Championship, but it was worth carrying him because he scored like a striker down there.

He spent his career at Bolton, then us (in a rotten 2 1/2 year period) then West Ham and Leyton Orient. That isn’t the career of someone with an outstanding football IQ. He was a fine goalscorer with 2 strikers in front of him to free up a few yards of space but he was a bloody awful midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McTom, a squad player who should have left years ago. At least Nolan’s goals meant something. Keeping Bolton and West Ham in the Premier League. Helping us to promotion and then scoring a fair few to keep us in the division. I know what career I’d rather have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
