callum-ayr Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 See James Hilton has signed for Stranraer. Hope he gets a good run in the team, someone I thought should have had a loan to a League 1/2 team last year to see if he could make the step up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
railwayend Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Scott Wright would be a quality signing ,but more a number 10 where we already have Moff and McCowan . But stiil good player . I don't think anyone doubts Robbie's quality on the ball ,good touch and good pass . However its what he does without the ball that is of concern, which just about amounts to nothing . Doesn't track ,wont tackle and leaves holes all over the middle line for teams to pour through . Basically he's a bit of a luxury and one a team without Shankland can't afford . If we had a young Scott Brown to play in central midfield beside him then ok ,but we don't . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eez-eh Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 When Rab’s confident and on-form he’s excellent at recycling possession, picking out passes and his close control to take the ball past the opposition is exceptional. When he loses a bit of confidence it’s like being a man down. After 6 seasons I think it’s fair to assume that’s just the type of player he is and the time for him to “kick-on” has been and gone. I don’t have an irrational hatred of him like some of the support but I won’t really be bothered if he goes - we desperately need a midfielder or two who can chip in with goals. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawlino Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Was he not described as one of the best young attackin midfielders in Scotland not that long ago ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mgc1910 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 The Crawford debate is hysterical. Folk saying we should punt him because he’s no good when he’s on the verge of a move to a Premiership club. Some folk wouldn’t know a wet fish if it leapt out the sea and slapped them across the face. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb123! Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Get Scott Wright fucking signed up, two year deal and we could have another Shankland on our hands. Would imagine multiple premiership and big paying championship teams will be after him though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Crawford is a good centre midfielder and comfortable at this level. On the wing he is dreadful. If he does in fact go, I wish him well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawlino Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 No no , wait im sure our gaffer decribed him as one of the best young attacking midfielders in Scotland . Is he a defensive midfielder then ? Or is he a number 10 type midfielder . Like the maker of goals ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn’t score many goals and I’m not sure how many assists he gets. This means on paper his stats make him look a bit pish considering many people think he’s an attacking player. What he is good at is carrying the ball, recycling possession and covering a lot of ground in games. Last season I thought his defensive game improved with him tracking back more and making more tackles. To a certain extent his defensive game isn’t needed as much with Murdoch next to him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superhursty7 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Say what you like some of our best performances last season had Murdoch and Crawford in the centre midfield positions I'd rather seen him playing for us than some one like Dunfermline or Queens. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a box to box midfielder if he requires wanky terminology. I think if he can get away somewhere with a good coach he will be flying, he's got everything there just needs refined and that obviously is not happening at Ayr. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb123! Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Scott Wright surely getting a Premiership club? Probably, however there's been a strong connection between Aberdeen and Ayr over the past few years due to the friendship between McInnes and McCall. So it shouldn't be ruled out plus McCall almost signed him on loan in January 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
