flyingscot Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 2 hours ago, Coventry Saint said: So if McAllister arrives, Goodwin has a rather large selection headache in the middle of the park. Two from Magennis, McGinn, Foley and Flynn in the middle, and three from Andreu, Djorkaeff, Durmus and McAllister behind the striker. Obviously fitness and injuries mean there'll be plenty of rotation, but my first choice midfield there sees two big players miss out... If McAllister comes back then it would give us good balance as we don't have a right winger. Djorkaeff might be able to play that role. We also have Erhahon and McPherson also miss out too! We're a bit stacked in centre midfield and wonder if we'd send Erhahon out to Championship club? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is too valuable as he can play in a number of positions and is good enough cover. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For these reasons, a new centre half would be good. To be fair to MacKenzie, I read that he'd had an op to sort out the injury he'd been having problems with over the past season. The reason he missed games earlier this season was cracked ribs, which there's not a lot you can do to avoid. Before that, when Ross was here, his other injury was concussion. Although, he is lacking in pace, as another poster mentioned. Definitely another CB required. Edited August 6, 2019 by FTOF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would send him out. He won't be a first pick and in his situation he needs games. He also needs to rebuild some confidence. With young players I expect mistakes but I also expect to see players learning from mistakes and improving as the weeks go by. Ethan started brightly then deteriorated. McPherson has proved to be a more versatile player and I would keep him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you here. The short term loan could possibly be down to the club looking for a more permanent centre half and Sean helps fill the position for now. Either that or Hull were not prepared to extend it further. I would love to have Popescu back and this possibly still keeps the door open for a return if his club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reported that he played quite well there too apart from a bombscare 5 minute spell. Glad Cammy Breadner scored. Any time I've seen him have a run out for first team he's looked impressive. Hell hopefully get a chance to rack minutes up this season. Edited August 7, 2019 by djchapsticks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breadner has got something about him. I liked the look of him in his 1 or 2 previous first team appearances. The next star from the academy ? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evident on that note from last night he looked impressive in a central midfield role. Ideally, if we are still looking at bringing in defensive players before the window closes, we not only look for a left back though a centre half who can deputise there too, allowing Erhahon to move out on loan, even if it's for 6 months on his natural position. Shame is, the last 10 months or so, he has been seen playing left back and may not be on other teams radar as a central midfielder loan option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's a DM then I think we should send him out on loan to a team in a similar situation to us - ie one that'll mainly have their backs to the wall at the wrong end of their division. Help him learn the craft of breaking up play when we don't have much possession. Could imagine him going to Alloa but spending time training with us still. Or maybe Partick.
