HoBNob Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Pybus runs around allot. Not sure if the description of him winning loads of tackles is accurate, he sort of pressures players but he's not snapping into tackles or that. @RandomGuy had some stat which at one point had him down as good for pressuring a year or two back I'm sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubbychops Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Yogi seems to see something in Todd that I just can't see. I'm not sure what he brings to the table. Poor on the ball. not good defensively and no aggression. Can't see where the potential is. Paul Allan and McCann at least have attributes to develop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We Are Pars Fans! Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Todd isn’t good enough. Pybus isn’t great but felt he had a good game yesterday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrispPancake Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 just to be upfront, I'm a Bairn's supporter but with no sarcasm in this question, How's Yogi doing, how have the Pars fans taken too him and how long will tou give him before the megalomaniac in him ruins your team? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not a tackler especially, More likely to win possession by nipping in front of someone waiting on a pass or forcing someone into playing early. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got to give him time. Can't keep shouting for a managers head. Falkirk have shown that changing mangers every 6 months gets you nowhere. Peter Grant had to go and Yogi needs a summer to prove his worth regardless of what league we're playing in. The guy is not the brightest but I still think he will do a job for us eventually.

DAFC. Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Pybus had a good game against Raith, if I’m being honest. Don’t think he is good enough, though. Decent sub to bring on and rest players if we are winning in matches, however we are struggling in matches to get in to winning positions, so a player that can run around a lot without much produce isn’t going to help us. We badly need a couple centre mids in the door, ideally before our next game if Dorrans is still out. Yogi has been coy about the signings ie saying “2 or 3” in his interviews, but that’s us moved on Gaspuitis, with Kennedy and Graham (you assume) going back to their clubs. He’ll be looking to move on another couple players I think that are just hoovering a wage without giving much back. He stated there was money already set aside for 3 players so it could be potentially 6 or more, not counting Lewis Martin. Wighton is rumoured to be away to St Johnstone. O’Hara and Todorov are barely getting a look-in along with Wighton. That’s so many expensive strikers that aren’t producing on the pitch or just sitting on the bench. We need to get a couple of these guys moved on. I’m sure someone would be willing to take a punt on Todorov, given his record last season. If we can get rid of his wage, which will be quite a fair whack you’d reckon, and we get money for Wighton, that gives us a lot of leeway in getting players we need to get us out this mess and up the table. Or it could all just continue to go tits up week after week and we go down without a whimper, which would probably be the most realistic scenario at EEP these days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 (edited) The strikers 'aren't producing' because they're getting hideous service. Aside from Wighton's goal at Kilmarnock, which no longer counts, when was the last time we scored from open play? Who would take a punt on Todorov? Presumably the club would let him leave for nothing, but we'd surely not do a Raith and let him go to someone in this league? League 1 then? Perhaps, but would he be willing to drop down? Just a huge mess! Cheers board for allowing this to happen. Edited January 4, 2022 by DA Baracus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 It won't happen but I think Todorov would be perfect for us. The Pars would never let him come to us, and after last season I doubt he'd want to join us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I think he might end up either at Falkirk or, bizarrely, Arbroath on loan. They might want a "big guy" replacement for Nouble. Obviously they won't get anyone near as good, but he's proven at this level before, and we'd avoid having a Vaughan like situation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Standards are so atrociously low that Pybus running around a bit and making short passes is now seen as a good performance. He's achingly mediocre and was a terrible signing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpar Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 It makes you realise that punting Grant is only the start of recovering from the shit he and the board left us in. Realistically, Crawford’s replacement didn’t exactly have a difficult job. Bring in a couple of players to strengthen the squad and be a good enough man manager to get them motivated and know how to change things during a game if it’s not working. We’ve regressed so drastically as a squad and as a club in the past 7 months or so, leaving Yogi with an enormous job on his hands. Every Pars fan knows that central midfielders are the absolute priority this window, who’s available? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve watched some utter diddies playing in our back line in the last decade, but he’s up there with Stuart Urquhart and Johnathan Page. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 What a fucking state of a squad Yogi has had to deal with. As mentioned we didn't need a lot of changes in the summer, one or two positions to be strengthened and keep the squad motivated.Utter shit show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
