Spikethedee Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Quite a few people saying, quite rightly in my opinion, that we pretty much need an entirely new back 4. However, how realistic is that? I would imagine that bringing in 4 new players and playing them all at once is probably not a wise move. Do we bring in a new CH, then play him with Sweeney for a few games, then bring in new full back on either side? Bring in a new right back first and then the central defence? Either way, it’s not going to be pretty and could take until March to get an entirely new back 4 settled in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PauloPerth Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Always felt McMullan looks threatening in matches but lacks an end product. Revising my opinion a bit after this, tremendous finish; https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/59661528 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of times Marshall just backed off Boyle was frightening. Numerous times Boyle had possession out wide in his own half and was allowed to run to the edge of our box was frightening. Basque Jon used to block everything. Marshall neither tackles or blocks any crosses. Boyle basically had the run of the park down our left last night unless McCowan put in a challenge on him. It’s getting pretty tedious going to games now. Leave work early and don’t get home until midnight last night, then up again for work at half 6 after being out my kip from half 6 the previous morning for yet another piss poor performance with the same mistakes over and over again and not having a go at teams. Hibs were there for the beating last night and looked a poor side but we just stood off them. What’s the fuckin point?

Has it ever been mentioned we have been looking for a left back.? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether he’s replaced is 1 thing needing replaced is another. Boils my piss that he never puts pressure on the wingers 1st touch. We’re puss easy to play against. The constant switch of play to wide players is always on and causes us major problems. Basic, basic defending. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good, i was fearing we weren't meeting our criminal quota just yet imo In all seriousness, I'd still say yes to a return at this point since he's miles better than what we have rn, though I'd expect him to bring a box of apology chocolates down for Byrne as well. Are Aberdeen looking to get rid though? He's just back from injury himself and their back line hasn't been great all season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have had Cummings, Griffiths and Sheridan on the bench at the same time this year. I believe Jak is a striker too though have seen no evidence 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
