TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Couple of decent results for us tonight. Fakes should’ve beaten Aberdeen too. They were much the better side. Aberdeen are absolutely honkin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume Robinson is planning on sticking with the 433 long term though as I don't see him fitting into a 352 particularly. He did say pre-season that he wants to go 343 with wing backs but didn't have the personnel to do so and his recruitment last summer and in this window certainly seemed to rectify that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds a bit mental imo but aye anything that allows Scott to play as a wide forward with the freedom to drift in would probably suit him personally. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean we technically do play a 343 (probably closer to a 523 if you can call that a thing) just now with 3 centre halves, two wing backs, a pair of central mids and then two wide forward players and a centre forward . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a wee chance for LJ to come in and have a run in the team if he can play anywhere across the front three. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahead of Tanser? I doubt it. Unless Tanser is injured/suspended. We’ve become that loan team again haven’t we? After a welcome period of having almost exclusively our own players, how many loanees is that we have now? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, hold up, perhaps I'm reading it wrong, it's saying first team rather than starting line up. I, like you, immediately thought that Tanser must be injured/suspended. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Assumed the cover/competition would be a youngster or someone out of contract we were bringing in on pennies. Given Tanser's form surprised it's someone in their mid 20s already at a club - although he hasn't been getting a game and doesn't appear to have played that many games for someone of that age. This is not me writing off someone I hadn't heard of until 10 minutes ago! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hardly becoming 'that loan team' when of loanees, only Zach Hemming has been a regular this season. Stav was a loan to buy and Small couldn't break in. The average SPFL Premiership team is carrying 4 loanees, there's plenty of teams with 5 and Dundee have 8. And that's not including all the loans that have been cancelled in January.

Coventry Saint Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Decent window. We needed: 1) a shuffle of the pack up front, for new ideas if nothing else 2) LWB cover 3) RWB cover/long-term Strain replacement 4) a centre mid We have got all of those things. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but am I right in saying that last season we only had one (Small)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
