Who are the two present day centre halves being played out of position ? I'd say McTominay is one, not sure Tierney is one as he's played Left Centre back on a few occasions, albeit wing back at club level. I thought Tierney is playing left centre back for Arsenal Edited January 21, 2021 by ewan14 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically identical player to his son. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a great strike on him though same as young Charlie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye he was quite powerfully built, bit like Charlie being a bit chunky, but a midfield maestro at that level who strolled through games spraying passes left and right. Great to watch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlipperyP Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 You've not got a great eye for a footballer have you. as he also played for Forfar for 2 years, I also seen him play on more than a few occasions. At best, he was a good solid 1st Division player, the reason he played mostly for the Angus clubs during his career. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye well considering Arbroath were in the 2nd and 3rd divisions at the time I'd say my conclusion he 'stuck out like a sore thumb at that level' would be entirely backed up by your conclusion he was 'a good solid 1st Division player'. Maybe you don't have a great eye for words. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Solid 1st Division player, does not mean "class or identical to his son" your words, who played most of his career at the top end of the English leagues. Maybe you don't have a fucking clue what your talking about. Which to be honest, you never let us down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look we both know what's going on here. You're a fanny so are desperate to oppose something I said for two reasons - I said it, and you're a fanny. If you want to discuss the topic at hand this is the place, if you want to have a go at me start a thread about me and I'll pop in every now and then to tell you what a fanny you are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lambies Doos Posted January 21, 2021 Author Share Posted January 21, 2021 I thought Tierney is playing left centre back for ArsenalLeft back in a 4 2 3 1. That's what they seem to play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The narrative around this game reminds me of the Italy 2007 qualifier where the vast majority of Scotland fans get hung up on the free kick at the end (that we defended horribly) but forget the perfectly good goal Italy had ruled offside at 1-0 and the fact that our goal was offside. See also the Lithuanian boy's dive (the Hearts lad whose name I can't spell) to get a pen, but not O'Connor's dive in the same game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edinabear Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Scott mctominay is genuinely one of the best midfielders in the Prem now. His energy, range of passing and tackling has come on leaps and bounds. Even scoring goals now! Please steve play him in centre mid!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, you can ask him to fill a role in defence while Ryan Jack does the same in his position in midfield or you find someone else to 'fill the role' and play McTominay in his position where he will be a huge upgrade. For example even Hanley -McTominay > McTominay - Jack 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widge Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 The fact United won 9-0 with their attacking players all scoring, but McTominay got MotM kind of says it all about the type of player he is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woof! Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 McTominay, McGinn and Gilmour would be an amazing middle three. Although maybe Jack for Gilmour at the Euros depending on the next few months. Hendry (or Hanley), McKenna, Tierney in defence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although maybe Jack for Gilmour at the Euros depending on the next few months. Hendry (or Hanley), McKenna, Tierney in defence. I think Hendry will come back and have a part to play for Scotland in the future. But no way would I bring him into the Euros starting line up.If McTominay does move to midfield, then it'd have to be Gallagher, Cooper or Hanley in the defensive gap. I know that means a bit of rearrangement of the three in terms of left/right footedness plus ability to bring the ball forward etc, but I'd prefer that than putting Hendry in when it looks like he's only just getting his confidence back.All that said, SC being SC will probably just calmly continue to play McTominay in defence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
