What people have said - rightly, IMO - is that we didn't create many chances and those that we did weren't of the clear cut variety. Certainly not enough very big changes to say we had enough to win two games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The keeper making a save doesn't necessitate whether a chance was, or wasn't a good one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He claimed a few crosses and tipped a shot in the 1st half round the post. I do agree you lack numbers or real quality up top but that will be a struggle to resolve this week. I hear you have 2 creative players that are due to come back in but we also have a goalscoring right winger to come in, a left back to come in instead of a midfielder and have options on the bench. I mean there was at least four decent chances from the highlights. Two goals on Saturday would have seen us win, two goals next Saturday could see us win, there’s two games. The maths isn’t that hard. Anyway, who actually give a f*ck, we didn’t score and that’s all that matters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toun Clock Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 McPake has confirmed via the Courier that KRH will play in a reserve game tomorrow against Dundee. If he comes through that and trains well leading up to Saturday then he should make the squad. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Excellent news, as long as he's not thrown in before he's ready. We need him back but 100% and for the long haul. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacky Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 So what team would you play with KRH back in the squad. Judging by that performance and embarrassing dive from oHalloran I’d be dropping him to the bench, play McCann and Wighton up front with KRH in midfield 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toun Clock Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 I wonder how many of Dundee's reserves will be whisked away to the board room to sign 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the formation McPake wants to play, Saturday seemed to be a 523, in that instance it's a straight swap of O'Halloran for KRH. However when Todd comes back we'll play a 532 I'd imagine. I beleive our strongest lineup (if everyone was available) would be Mehmet KRH - Fisher - Bene - Breen - Edwards Todd-Hamilton-Chalmers Wighton - McCann 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaton Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Even if he is in the squad I can't see it being from the start and tbh I'd prefer that. Bring him on for a run out if we're a couple up or to change this if need be. What a luxury to have. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toun Clock Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Aye if he comes through this week okay I'd still say there's no chance he starts. It's not like we've been getting absolutely dicked off teams and really need to get him in asap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nat Weederburn Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Mehmet Fisher Bene Otoo KRH Edwards Hamilton Chalmers Todd Wighton McCann Subs; Sharp, Comrie, Allan, Tod, O'Halloran, Summers, Breen Would be my starting team if everyone was fit. It's unfortunate Todd/KRH were out on Saturday as they are the creative flair that can get on the ball in midfield and take players on but the squad lacks those sorts of players in depth just now. O'Halloran still looks miles off it and McCann struggled to have the same impact as he has for other games this season. Ideally we get at least 1 more striker to offer something different to wighton (I'd argue we possibly need 2), as well as some sort of other pacy attacking player for when O'Halloran/McCann aren't playing well/or are out. Summers has talent but will need to adapt to this level to have an impact. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a pretty solid shot stopper and has a rocket of a boot, but accuracy of kicking is a lottery and he likes a run up on back passes which has nearly caught him out 2 or 3 times. Couldn't blame him for the goal at Tannadice or the one on Saturday I don't think. I imagine McPake will still favour Mehmet when he returns but Sharp should push him if he doesn't perform. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh he's been alright, hasn't made any saves that you wouldn't expect a keeper to make, hasn't had any clangers. His command of the box isn't as good as Mehmets but he's a tad shorter so it's to be expected. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said a better finish could have scored. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
