CloustonHMFC Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Kingsley should absolutely not be playing in CB. Give Haring and Halkett a start. I like Halkett but he's had a torrid time with CB pairings. We don't have an Irvine in our squad (sorry but it's a real sticking point for me) but a cm 2 of Irving and McGill will get run over, all day long.

cameron79 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Im disappointed McGill hasn't had a sniff since he played. He looked decent and certainly had more energy than Haliday. The younger players should really be getting more of an opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deid Heid Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) We might have a chance if Berra, Halkett, Naismith, Smith, Halliday , Frear, Walker, Rodgers are left out of the team...so, as that isn't going to happen, Rats will win. All of course in my opinion. Forgot and of course the entirely useless coaching staff Edited January 24, 2021 by Deid Heid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgie_Rules Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) Gordon Smith Popescu Halkett Kingsley Haring Irving GMS Walker Ginnelly Boyce Halkett, Walker and Boyce fill me with zero confidence (Boyce only there as he got 2 yesterday and no other option), but the squad is weak overall. Naismith and Berra should be nowhere near the first 11 at the moment on current form. Edited January 24, 2021 by Gorgie_Rules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar against Dundee If Haring isn’t playing need someone who can battle a bit We got taken to the cleaners in midfield by a bunch of average young laddies who will never play above the level they are currently at. And all they did was play short crisp forward passes and work hard to win the ball back. We did neither of those things and were actually started to look like a team who’s average age is really telling. A team who for the most part are playing at their last big club and who are not hungry enough. We should be fielding 4 or 5 boys in our team in their early 20’s. How many did we have yesterday around 30 and over ? How many of our team have any prospect of being looked at by other bigger clubs ? How many are on the way down vs how many are on the way up ?

Gambo Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Whatever the line up we need to start commanding the middle of the park. Boss that area then centre halves are under less pressure. Also once we get the ball, do what teams do to us, run direct towards opposition goals instead of doing everything we can to take 20 passes to get it wide.

Yes, surely to god he plays 3 genuine midfielders and just one wide player, at least to start. Its a skill to get wide players involved. It doesn't just happen.

Haring is a mystery just now. Makes the bench but by doing that - cos he would be a strange change if needed - maybe restricts the option of McGill or a n other.

1953 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 No reason why we can't win this but the attitude must change big time. We need to play from the first whistle unlike yesterday when we didn't start playing till we were 3 down. I've no idea if Robbie can manage that.

jambopilms Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 As someone already pointed out , the average age is shocking. Add to that a number of the older players legs have gone due to bad injuries. We need to give some of the youth a chance. Let's face it, they can't do any worse than our superstar cripples. At least they would get within 10 yards of their players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
