Well Well Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Frees up a wage and we get a small fee I presume. Hopefully invest it wisely 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowsdower Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 SK is definitely adept at moving people on, but I'd say that signing folk just so he can punt them isn't in the spirit of the thing. I can see us sticking where we are as far as strikers go, unless Shaw's injury is bad. Have to imagine we will bring in a couple of defenders and at least one midfielder. Are either Tierney or Mahon shouts to come back to be older on our bench? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should totally play one of those midfielders at wing back. That'll sort everything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie Kirk Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 If I could only have kept one of Wilkinson Obika and Shaw it would have been Wilkinson. Think that says more about Obika and Shaw right enough and I’m not fussed Wilco is away. The way we are set up is to defend from the front and neither Obika nor Shaw can tackle a fish supper. Their languid style of not pressing the opposition defence boils my piss to be honest. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't expect that as had looked a wee while ago and he hadn't exactly set the heather alight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to imagine we will bring in a couple of defenders and at least one midfielder. If he wants to have this 343/523 as an option then we probably need a wide forward, someone who can play "anywhere across the front 3" to use a Robinson-ism (I think @dezz actually mentioned this on the Terrace Patreon that went out the other week). If we're planning on using 3 forwards with any sort of regularity then only having 4 (one of whom is extremely injury prone) is probably leaving us a bit light and this idea of sticking Slattery in that role can get to f**k. Tbh, it would make sense why Wilko was the one to be let go as he's probably the most awkward fit for that shape from the group of him/Bair/Obika (assuming we actually signed him to play as a second striker) as he's neither a target man nor someone who could play as an inside forward in the way Biereth can and obviously he's the one we've be able to get a taker for. For me we're in the market for a LWB, RWB, CB, a #6 and a forward. Like, I genuinely don't see how anyone could look at our GA column and think the defence isn't a priority. Especially as we're actually scoring goals. Edited January 3 by capt_oats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianfranco Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Fair play to Wilkinson for actually wanting to move to play games. It was quite obvious the Kettle didn’t fancy him when he’s not been playing despite the grim run of form we are on. Well that is 3 out so far. Hopefully we’ll start hearing more incoming rumours soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
