I’m assuming we now have McKenzie wide. Reserve goalkeeper on right back at centre half left back at right back winger off to allow a forward to play on the wing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted November 11, 2023 Author Share Posted November 11, 2023 We had to change something and going to a back five is probably the best we could do even just to keep it to 3-0. Taking Chalmers looks bizarre on the face of it but he doesn’t fit anywhere into that shape that we’ve switched to in the second half. The real criminality from Bullen was the blaming of the players last week for something that is firmly on the doorstep of the manager. Even getting Dowds coming out in agreement in midweek doesn’t change that. We’re so fragile defensively yet we decided to try and settle at 2-1 and took off the one player that was actually holding the ball at the other end of the park. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalmers can easily fit into a three at the back style formation - Bullen is just incapable of doing anything outwith a traditional 3-5-2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don’t think he can unless you’re going a bit more baws out with three up front. Three at the back and five across the midfield should in theory stem the tide a bit. Edit: I take all this back. Bringing McGeady on about twenty minutes after taking Chalmers off is just fucking mental. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diegomarahenry Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 He’s sub happy again this week. This feels like a cup game against a league 2 team where we are 3 goals up, f**k It, your going on next, play where you want, it doesn’t matter 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at a Scotland style set up he definitely can - far better than having two strikers up front just because IMO. Especially when Rose is well, shite! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only me... Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Both inverness and arbroath have 2 games in hand over us with only 2 points difference, easy to see us 2nd bottom shortly, giving morton some motivation. If musonda ever gets match fit, he's away to Africa in January, we need emergency loans in to patch some sort of capable defence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelson Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 It’s a damning indictment of how little progress has been made over the last year that once again, 2 injuries reduces us to McAllister at centre half and Ecrepont at Right back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 My prediction from BGM post match - Inverness is a hard place to come and they are the form team in the division. Losing Stanger to injury meant the gameplan went out the window and it became about damage limitation. Our makeshift defence couldn't hold out. The system change worked as it stemmed the tide and we won the second half. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diegomarahenry Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 International break next week, then an away trip to Peterhead in the Scottish Cup so plenty of time for folk to calm down before the next home game on the 2nd of December. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose I’m being unfair, as it’s 3 injuries given Ahui is MIA today as well. No one seems to have noticed which is quite funny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
