Very weird pass agg posting style. I had a laugh at their wee huff earlier in saying they wouldn't be posting any more info after this. A decent poster to be fair but stubborn as hell. I do enjoy his input regardless of the scoops. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly wouldn’t be apologising to someone who thinks that supporters’ opinions on a footballer should be automatically discounted if any football manager disagrees. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fifespud Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 After the success of Beck’s loan hopefully Liverpool will be keen to repeat with other young players. They’ve 17 players out on loan at the moment so plenty of options. https://www.planetfootball.com/quick-reads/liverpool-loanees-2023-24-how-they-have-been-faring-morton-carvalho 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it works out. I firmly hope he shuts my pus, naturally! A goal tomorrow would be epic. As for strengths and weaknesses, well his main strength is his adaptability. He's played wing back, winger and striker for St Johnstone this season. He had the horror show of all horror shows against us. Not witnessed as bad a performance from someone since Raith had that Mendy lad. I suppose it can be viewed as a positive that he's extremely confident in himself with Charlie Adam stating he pretty much needed to force him up to St Johnstone as he thought the level of Scottish football was too low for him. I reckon he'll be a wing back for us but could also see him being deployed just off Bakayoko since Docherty clearly views that as a problematic area since he resorted to having Tiffoney there against Kilmarnock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is his thing not that he’s very fast? Pace is pretty important in the game now. I was away and missed the SJ game so I’ve never seen him. Must have been pretty horrible start at the Perth for players this season, particularly loanees. He starts with a clean slate in my eyes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know fuckall about him and either does the other wetwipe Perth Saintees in here. Dochertys worked with youngsters such as James Maddison at Aberdeen and has a track record of bringing them through. Shut your pus and let the football do the talking. Quite sick of seeing Boredoms pie charts and Ludos negativity every transfer window in all honesty. Wasn't long ago Ludo was berating Bowyer leaving and whipping up as much anger as he could across all Dundee platforms. Costelleo has much more of a chance to progress with this manager than MacLean who was clearly a moron. Being around players of a better calibre should help aswell. Thank you.

Doesn’t really say whether he’s got decent pace, decent on the ball, decent in the air, gets about the park etc. after some of the dross we’ve come up against over the years he can’t be the 2nd worst can he? If so holy f**k what is Docherty thinking and let’s hope you’re wrong. Only the keeper and Philips in midfield (think that’s his name) looked decent for St Johnstone that day. Granted it was the worst performance by a team against us in the league I’ve saw this season by a distance. They were very poor that day and we should’ve been well and truly out of sight by the time of the late collapse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 20 minutes ago, Ludo*1 said: Since we don't play with wingers I think the two main options for him are trying him as the secondary striker like we did with Tiffoney against Kilmarnock and have him play just off the striker. Alternatively, we've pushed McGhee to CH due to injuries perhaps Docherty has noticed this is his best position so will utilise him as one of our wing backs since we've lost Beck as well. RWB is his position, I think. Hes kind of like O'Halloran in that if you play him up front you'll just get 90 minutes of trying to beat the offside trap, but not having the brain power to manage it (NAP he scores that way tomorrow). RWB makes it simple for him on the ball (get ball, run with ball, cross ball), but he can't defend so thats a risk you take. Levein played a 16yo central midfielder there instead of Costelloe though, after a few weeks, as he thought he was better than Costelloe in attack. So take from that whatever you want. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levein’s thing is usually how they’re defensively. So he’s not a left wing back then? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes been pretty attacking with us, and we take a huge amount of risk on the ball trying to "play football" through midfield rather than hoof it. He played LWB for us once I think, but I wouldn't say you do it often as he has no idea where hes meant to be. Hes very much a blank canvas. Its as if nobody has ever told him what position he plays so he just shunted about everywhere and has no idea what to do anywhere. He just needs told "this is your position, work on it" by someone to stop him wasting time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose he's mouldable and Burnley obviously weren't happy with his development at St Johnstone as they've took him away the first chance they got and sent him our way. I don't think he's ever been as bad as he was that day against us since but certainly hasn't got St J fans gutted he's left! I'm talking myself more into this signing as the minutes go by. The joys of being a Dee fan! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can somehow who doesn’t have a clue where to play manage to become a professional player and still under a full time contract into his 20’s? Boy’s been very, very lucky by the sound of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
