IT’S EARLY DAYS for Conor Sammon at Sheffield United and he was like a fish out of water during Saturday’s League One game against Blackpool.
Thankfully for Sammon, this miss didn’t prove costly as the Blades still ran out 2-0 winners at Bramall Lane.
However, it is one he’ll want to forget in a hurry. The Dubliner found himself on the end of Jamal Campbell-Ryce’s low cross from the right but somehow he managed to steer it wide from just four yards out.
Sammon, a former UCD and Derry City striker, is currently on loan at Sheffield United from Derby County and scored twice in last week’s 3-1 win against Peterborough.
The 28-year-old has won nine senior caps for the Republic of Ireland, the most recent of which came in the 1-0 World Cup qualifier defeat to Austria in September 2013.
And to think of all the Morons on here who questioned his ability cos he only scored goals in….. eh….France, Spain, Italy, holland. Now he’s scored against the dross that England has to offer they surely must be eating their words.
Imagine what he would have done in the EPL in his prime.
He’s a beast
I wanted him to fail for obvious reasons but has any other player proved to be a great player in all the top leagues, can’t think of any.
Yeah, have to give him credit. He’s already hit 20 goals with, at the very least, 18 games still to go.
A beast will you get a grip ffs
Class act.
Lots of ignorant idiots saying we wouldn’t make double figures for the season. Read the stats and weep
Hopefully he stays fit cos if he dont we’re gone.hes going the right way to becoming a club legend
I’ve been saying for years how underrated he actually is when you compare him to Messi and Ronaldo. He’s consistently been the top striker in the world and top 5 or 6 in the world for about 15 years. I’m a Liverpool fan so wanted him to fail obviously but he’s such an incredible player and should go down as one of the greatest ever
Hahaahahaah are you disturbed
How many has coutinho ?
Who the midfielder who every top club in Europe would take tomorrow . More then any midfielder the Mancs have that’s for sure .
Give it a rest Johnny what’s this got to do with him.
Who who ?? What are you a fking owl ?
Mata has the same amount of prem goals as coutinho and more overall.
They both have 5 league goals, as does Ozil and Eriksen. One more than Pog and Gareth McAuley.
Just debunking another claim from marcus bale. He’s the sean spicer of the 42!
Jenny BlaBlavo: i said who once and that joke i heard in school in 1972 i think which proves what most already know . Your a young slightly stupid little child . I’ll finish off like you do with a big Blahaahaahahahahahahahah
@Johnny Bravo: What does Coutinho have to do with this story? Ibra is an Striker. Couthinho is a midfielder. Were you born this way?
Debunking what you amadán. Brining politics into football . That’s the foreign in you i suppose . Sticking the beak in
Don’t start him off . You will get thinking he will then get a big nose bleed and just start Blahaahaahahahahahahahah out of him . Remember he is only 13 or 14 years of age and possibly a slight bit stupid
He doesn’t foreign stop
Debunking what you said! I’m comparing you to another well known fabricator of alternative truths. I’m Irish by the by not that nationality has anything to with me proving you wrong. Don’t get too upset about being called on it.
It’s getting old isn’t it!
@bognar Sussex : do you not make any of your own points or do you just go round checking other people’s for specific times dates etc… seriously are you some sort of human spell check or just a weirdo . Politics is boring but it’s desperate to mix with football and looking to then converse with . Seriously foreign
He’s finished!!
Sure has 20 and counting
I’m guessing my sarcasm was missed!
Lukaku has 16 in the league already
16 goals for Everton at this stage of season is brilliant . He is on fire . Some ability . Still only young .
Very true Marcus. They are a good side under koeman
