Alot of posters on here I've never seen before, which shows how big a game this is. Biggest in what 22 years. Tbh we have to get lucky one of these times. I wish I could be more positive, and predict a glorious win. But unfortunately I have a bad feeling about this

I think you may unfortunately be an idiot, which is a shame. Messi would struggle playing at centre half.

Incorrect, I dont believe its more important. Its very important but if your big and crap. Your still crap. 2nd part yes, we both agree on that. That Aufc is incorrect.

So thats what 5/6? Tbh I could name many more good short centre backs than that myself. Still wouldn't make it a reasonable argument.

Again, there's not many examples 2 you mention have already been said. If its not an advantage why do all international teams have tall centre backs. Do you think this is a coincidence?

We've a couple of days till the game, im sure the thread will get back on track by then. Dry your eyes.

So you agree with me completely, and you disagree with the other poster completely. Yet you don't realise

Its cool I've finally got to meet the guy who speaks for everyone, wow what an honour.

Ok so he's saying my argument is all you have to be is tall. Im sure he can quote me saying something so ridiculous. Or perhaps not.

Look 2 posts down, for an example of someone saying height is not an advantage at centre back. Thats who I'm disagreeing with, not you.

Haha indeed, you will need to add in all the top international teams in your list of failures. Germany, France, Italy, Brazil, Argentina. Their all rocking big centre backs. Kevin James ?

See the thing is they actually are. Theres plenty of people saying that. Buts its become this throw away comment that its not necessary to be tall. Where in fact it really really is. In a back 3 its slightly different and not as much of q requirement as in a 2. Depends on how your playing it, but in most back 3s the centre guy has a requirement to be winning the ball in the air. So he would have to be big enough. The outside 2 can get away with it to a degree.

How many more of them do you have? 4? 5? Not many, their examples of excellent footballers who despite lacking stature made it as top centre backs. There's not many examples.

Because you know any answer you give you would make you look foolish. The reason for this is its advantageous to be taller in certain positions on the pitch. A fact backed up be teams all over the world. Not some Internet hipsters pointing to the few anomalies.

Without realising it, you have actually proved my point. Its the hipster thing to say "centre backs don't have to be tall" but in a practical sense. Its rubbish Don't argue with me, go to your own team and look at your tall centre backs. Then write a letter to the club telling them their wrong.

What if mcgregor was 4ft 2? He'd be too small eh, so there's a height that is too small for you (dinosaur). There's a reason 99.9% of teams have 2 centre backs and gk over 6ft. Its not because their dinosaurs. Its because its advantageous. The odd wee guy playing centre back proves nothing.

If you were the manager would you pick a goal keeper who was 4ft 2? Say he was an excellent keeper, best technically we had. Would you pick him for the team?

Armstrong considers himself a centre midfielder. His words. The fact he's playing further forward and doing well shows his versatility. Not an inability to play a position he previously played (for years).

Fair enough, apologies if I came off as a sanctimonious arse. Your advice just worried me incase he actually did that without the proper testing. Could lead to a nasty accident in the worst case scenario.

Firstly you didn't know it was a ring, you weren't interested. You just said go ahead. Yes an electrician would take a zs reading for the circuit. And if it was unsafe, not proceed. Or offer an alternative. Secondly you can easily fit an rcd on an old circuit, or change an old board to an rcd board. You have to test the circuits before hand to find any potential issues tho. 3rdly you mentioned nothing of an rcd, which is a legal requirement. Now you mention an rcd plug. An rcd plug is fused at 13 amp, where the lights hes talking about would need to be fused at 6. So again the would be incorrectly supplied. Your clearly not an electrician mate, so give it a rest. Your advice could injure or kill someone.

I'd be more worried about what that armour is powering, if it is coming off a socket inside you should be fine to add a socket, change that black plastic box though or put blanks in the massive holes in the top of it. Really? Is the socket part of a ring? Whats the earth loop impedance reading of that ring? Is the reading OK? Is the circuit rcd protected? You know it has to be? You know if its not and someone touched that they could die? Or if whatever was or is going to be connected developed a fault it could possibly become live? OP pay a qualified electrician to hardwire your lights. Don't take uncertified electrical advice online.

I think its alot more likely mctominay was thought of as the guy who could move into centre back. And improve things, most specifically our distribution. Rather than being not up to standard to play midfield for us. Thats absurd.

Hes fast, has excellent stamina. Great tactically as well. Technically he's far superior to either palmer or O'Donnell. He may cut inside more often than he would on the left, rather than go down the line. But thats fine. He's a clever enough and experienced enough player to make those decisions. It sounds like your saying you think he's completely one footed? Is that what your saying. He's incapable, or really bad at kicking a ball with his right foot?

Ok, let's start easy. Do you think man u, or any premiership team will be trying to buy consedine?

Totally, man u will definitely be in for considine in January to replace mctominay
