clashcityrocker Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Think Hylton could be the winger we wanted - might not get many goals, but that won't matter with Bird and McIntosh up front. Left back incoming soon. Squad is looking good for the new season - with just a few additions as we have all discussed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

36-0 Maroon Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Chuffed to bits with the Hylton signing as he was awesome against Dundee and has superb experience and certainly knows where the goals are, Front 3 of him Bird & McIntosh with their strength and pace will cause any team problems ️ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtiekev Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Good options on the wings, Jacobs and Allan move on a a few bit more defensive cover and we will be not a million miles away, I remember when he signed Scott Stewart played in the middle of the park, I wonder if he would be an option to sit on and give a bit of defensive cover, he is athletic enough to play there and seems to be down the pecking order on the wings, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedLichtie86 Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Current team setup now. In players ideal positions. Have left out Jacobs as i suspect he will be moved on. Have left out Turan just to keep folk happy. But we all know he is here until January. DM is hopefully a new player as none of the players in that role are suited to a DM role. Some better than others but not as good as the real thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bold strategy, but it might just work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitbafan36 Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Hopefully Hylton is straight in on the left and looks a threat. I like Dow but don’t think he’s a winger Nevermind playing on his left foot all the time. Going on the set up of the team i would like to see us stick 2 up top or properly go 3 in midfield. This “number 10” role doesn’t work or suit us at all. Nothing against Mikey or Scott Allan etc. I just think with our style of play skips it out completely. Go 2 up and try and give them something to think about or go 3 in Centre midfield to solidify it and cover defence and so the wingers can push up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arbuckle? Cusick? I'm sure he ended up a bit of a crock towards the end of his time with us? ETA, no not those two, they are from a different generation... Edited again...Chisolm?

Not sure who you mean, but both Cusick & Arbuckle left long before Sheerin became manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I've just mashed together about 5 midfielders in my decrepit memory. I'm thinking of Chisolm, I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
