GAFFER PRAISES STEWART


SAFC manager Alex Neil reckons that Ross Stewart will be able to score plenty at Championship level, as long as he's given the same quality of service that he had last season...


26 MORE?

"I think to replicate 26 goals at Championship level would be an incredible achievement because there are not many strikers who are capable of that."


CHANCE CREATION

"Equally, we need to create enough chances for Ross to get his goals. He had a phenomenal year last year, he will be really looking forward to this season - and rightly so."


FULL PACKAGE

"Ross will want to score as many goals as he can. What he is is really mobile, he's 6ft 4in, he's very good in the air, his link-up is getting better and better all the time, and his movement in the box is great. I'm sure that if we can provide chances for Ross, he'll score goals."


MOTIVATION

"Ross is now a full international, which is great, and he has come up the hard way in that he spent time in non-league and then worked his way up through the divisions to get to where he is. Those kind of stories are great, aren't they? I think there's a grittiness about those players. If you get handed anything and it's easy, where does that desire come from? Don't get me wrong, there are some players who are unbelievably motivated, but I do think there are some players who, when they've had a bit of rejection along the way and they have fought to get where they are, there is a grittiness to those kind of people that I like."


REAP THE REWARDS

"When you see somebody who has worked that hard to get where he is, and hopefully he will get all the rewards that he deserves and I'm very hopeful that he will have a really good year."
