Won headers but done nothing else defensively.

Played lots of passes but the hatched areas show the average from your other CMs so he didn't really add much if anything, and didn't do anything in attack.

 

Aye hes 21, decent "underlying" numbers (especially in attack), is close to 100 senior appearances if not over and seems to be 6ft.

A decent gamble to take. 

Big fan of these tbh. 

 

Not surprised to see that for Joe Chalmers, absolutely pish.

Was hoping to see Chalmers fall over as his ankle gave way doing a one legged jump on the pre season vid there. Granted we would be stuck wi him but he would be out at least. I fear we are stuck with him anyway...

I could be wrong, but I thought the plan was to start pre season at it. At least that's what I remember from the meeting. 

Think that was best case scenario but not written in stone or anything.

Sums up Chalmers very effectively - pea-hearted and pish.

It shows that Chalmers best attribute is winning headers. Can't say I've ever noticed that attribute. He shites out of every 50/50. The ball must've accidentally bounced of his head a few times to get that stat up.

 

The aggressive tackler stat is lowest I've ever seen on one of those appraisal things. It's basiclly saying ''complete shitebag'' in neon lights. What a dreadful signing.

I’d assume his own goal against QoS will boost his aerial threat stats? Don’t know how it’s calculated, but assuming it’s based on winning headers, heading the ball into your own net unchallenged might look positive there?

Absolutely terrible data for Chalmers on that chart though. Just confirms what we all thought of him anyway. Agree on the ‘aggressive tackler’ thing. That’s an embarrassingly low number. ‘Ground disruptor’ is also very low for a midfield player.

Was raging when I saw him wearing number 8 and going through training in that video. Clearly going to be here then. Useless shitebag.

In fairness, regarding squad numbers no one has changed that was here last year, just the new boys being given one of the empty jerseys. Clubs official site has Bene at 4, Hamilton at 5 and the new youngsters in the late 20's early 30's. Yes I'm a squad number geek.

New training kit is really cool, available on the club shop already.

Is it the boy with the glasses that is Toddy's son? Certainly looks a bit lie him in the face minus the gigs.

So Bene plays at defensive mid then?

I didn't think so, surely it would have made sense to refer to them by name L/R as they appear in the photo, but @Grant228 's post suggests different which means it's just daft if the order the appear is just random.

Bored on my 3 hour train down south...

Work to do for McPake, I think priority areas are goalkeeper, centre half, centre midfield and wide areas. Think we're absolutely fine up top and full backs (assuming Edwards doesn't go).e16b9f89ea73a493f98af10b4e36ec42.jpg

I'm not having Macdonald as a back up centre half.

Should be looking to move MacDonald on. Todd has already proved he can compete with Comrie and MacDonald isn't a centre-back. 1 centre-back looking at? Christ, I'd be hoping for at least 3 centre-backs getting signed before the season starts.

Should have offered MacDonald to Raith. They’ve just signed Ross Millen. Genuinely amazed he’s still a full time footballer.

I actually thought we might offer Comrie to them.
