I reckon we'll get another striker in on loan later in the window too as Oliver's more of a midfielder and Agyeman's more of a winger. MacIver seems to get himself into the right positions he just has to be a lot more clinical this season. Morrison will get his share of goals again and Miller has looked threatening in the pre season games so hopefully they chip in. Ageyman and lawal will also get a fair few imo. Spencer might even chip in with 5 or 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Don't see why there wouldn't be as many or more goals in this team as last season. We haven't lost a goalscorer. We won't be relying on Oliver up top on his own. No reason to suspect Morrison doesn't keep his returns up, no reason to think Agyeman won't outscored Kennedy. Once again, goals is lesser among my concerns than RB or a horrible b*****d in the middle of the park. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still 5 loans available and unless someone goes out I doubt there will be any more permanent signings. 1. A right back is a must. 2. Bit of energy/steel in the middle of the park. 3. Another option upfront. 4. If we're being greedy another creative midfielder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m all for shoring up the midfield but at this level I think 3 defensive minded midfielders playing most week would be overkill and would negatively impact our ability to attack. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Alloa game was 02 July and the other friendlies were in between that...up to the last one v Hibs on the 19th. This isn`t from memory or I would have said Alloa was our last friendly. It`s from "Bettermeddle". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interested to see how he develops FT & in a team which should dominate more games than we did. I haven’t seen in personally, but my dad was at the closed door friendly at St Johnstone the other week and he was impressed with his play. He thinks his pace and physicality should make him a good addition for the season 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shodwall cat Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Mcglynns loan signings in league one have in the main been pretty decent but like most managers you can't get them all right. Main thing is you the vast majority are successful. The season they went up they had gullan, McLean and Anderson who all did pretty well and the year before had Henry and Armstrong who are both excellent players and last season most of them were pretty decent with wright being the only real stinker and he was possibly one more likely to succeed give his record at Montrose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller did start his career as a striker, I remember seeing him score the winner vs England in a Victory Shield match at Starks, however he’s only got 6 career goals to his name. Nesbitt isn’t much of a goal scorer either but still has a better record than Miller. Ola I agree with, provided he gets game time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't see Aidan Nesbitt, for all the credit I gave him last season when he earned it, having previously not been shy of berating him, doesn't seek to put himself in a scoring position anything like often enough. To the point of it being a fault in his game tbh. He doesn't gamble either positionally or with the ball. You can't do that every time, but I'm confident that Miller will do so more than him and reap the benefits. Might not be loads of goals, but the initial point was that I see there potentially being more goals in this squad than last season, whilst others still seem concerned about that specifically. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with what you’re saying regarding Nesbitt but also saying that Miller is not a goal scorer either so although I hope you’re right, there isn’t much evidence in his career to suggest he’ll get many for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
