He can't defend would be top of the list. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Games moved on its more about getting up a creating at left back but I'm sure his defending will improve over the years like Tavernier last year at Rangers and last few seasons over all 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tartanbrush Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Deary me the game hasn't moved on so much that left full backs no longer have to be able to defend. Josh Doing is okay, I also can't understand the fuss about him really, wasn't great last u21 game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Doig was getting double figures for goals and assists a season it would be a different conversation but since he doesn't I'll look at the fact he constantly gets caught out with high balls to the back post and his positioning seems really poor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tavernier was on loan at Gateshead and Carlisle at his age,pretty much the same as playing for Pollok to be kind about Gateshead Josh Doig is a completely different player and miles ahead off Tavernier for his age And Tavernier was hitting those figures at his age either that has been only a part of his game he developed a lot later 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doig, imo, is an alright full back for 19. I am baffled when there's talk of big transfer fees because I see nothing in his game to justify them, and some pretty glaring weaknesses which playing at a higher level would expose quickly. No issue with him being in the 21s. Would be ridiculous to see him in the full squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye heard the same patter when Robertson joined Hull,maybe Doig isn't heading to the EPL in a massive move How ever he could easily find football for a champions league team in Belgium or Turkey And if any off those kind off teams were in for him surely his development would be just as good there than the English championship for a Sheff Utd or someone? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No issue with him being in the 21s. Would be ridiculous to see him in the full squad. My thing though is when we get players like Doig coming through there is always someone waiting to take a pop It's like for some reason in Scotland we always want to knock peaple instead of encouraging them Ramsay at Aberdeen as well played less but it doesn't mean we can't be exited about him as well cos he looks really good And Paterson and Gilmour already broke into the seniors,so I'm quite happy about who we have right now And I would be delighted if I saw our u21 team qualify when we weren't qualifying used to love seeing players like Faddy Snoddy the Fletchers come through them Right now even at that level we look like we have some really good players and even ones that don't quite go as far or stay at big clubs Drop to English league one and take a step back to kick on so it isn't entirely disappointing were we are just now player wise it's only disappointing we don't qualify and seem to bottle it in last few games 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
