That's bound to be though, considering the amount of shots on target he has had to deal with. Look at McGregor, really shite save percentage but because the defence is doing it's job... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won the European Cup twice on the bounce playing that way, get him in Jazzer. On 09/12/2021 at 14:28, This Charming Man said: Astonishing when you consider Montrose born John McGovern, captain of that Nottingham Forest team and lifted the European Cup twice, never gained a full international cap for Scotland. Brian Clough however signed him for four different clubs, tells you everything. Agree @Fifespud, a very interesting watch, also very different times. Regards Watched this today, excellent. Get a fucking solid back four and build your team on that. Wonder if McPakes watched it. Some brilliant tunes as well. Can McPake keep us up? Thank you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peadar BigDinnerO'Driscoll Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Don't think Legzdins is the big issue but we do have an untried sub keeper in Lawlor. He's played a reasonable bit of football round the leagues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 I couldn't be less worried about our keeper situation tbqhwy. The situation in defence meanwhile... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at McGregor, really shite save percentage but because the defence is doing it's job...Not sure that’s how %’s work?He’s definitely miles better than Flajack, of course he was utterly shite. Stats eh. Apparently we are 2nd or 3rd best at defending crosses, or so they said on the radio last week. We are working pretty hard, seem to be a ‘team’, which is all good. I just think all over the park, not just in defence, we are pretty mediocre. We are usually way behind on possession and to me that means the defence is going to be under pressure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Bliss Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 (edited) 1 thing for certain for me is Cammy goes to left back and McGhee comes in at right back on Tuesday. Can’t continue with the left back being culpable game after game. A wee break out might do him a world of good.

I agree a wee break might do Marshall good, but our midfield would be too restricted if Adam is out and McGhee is at RB. Certainly wouldn't drop Marshall if it meant Elliott came into RB either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is with the defence. FWIW this is from the league this season. Where teams allow shots from.

Tbh I forgot about Charlie’s injury but 1 way or the other the left back needs dropped. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dundee-FC92 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Saturday was a chance to move up the table and rid ourselves of relegation fears for a bit. When push comes to shove though our weaknesses are too great to overcome without new additions. Legzdins is by no means a bad keeper but we need better. Far too many mistakes now. Apart from Sweeney I don't hold much hope for the rest of our back four either. We've done really well to pick up so many points without Byrne, it's by no means been a bad patch but the thing that sits with me is going to Easter Road you already know a defeat is coming. Until that changes we're never going to progress. Three or four needed in January none of which should be a striker. If we can pick up a few points until then we might be okay. Thank you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dundee-FC92 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 On a different note Mullen had a poorer game on Saturday and with three games in a week I'd love to see Cummings get a start again at Hibs. Give the man a chance McPake - when starting up top he was brilliant at the seasons start for us. He was chucked out the team for no reason for an unfit Griffiths. Thank you. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
