McGuigan1978 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 3 minutes ago, TxRover said: Really? We’d already been abysmal, we’re losing the match, we managed to allow a known poacher to stand by himself at the back post, with no players within 4 yards of him. I’m not sure we’d be “weaker”, but your mileage may vary. Your plan to make us better defensively, is to swap out two hugely experienced full backs and two Championship winning centre halves with four guys who have very little experience, and haven’t shown anything to suggest they’re ready to step up. Feels wild, but maybe my mileage varies 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, I’m sure there were considerations, but still… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brashy's Boots Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 TV experts saying we need to get Easton more involved. I think involving him much less would be a better idea. Surprised he's back out for 2nd half. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t say we’d get better, but I asked how we’d get worse. Give them their chance, then we’ll know…God knows we aren’t looking great as it is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 9 minutes ago, McGuigan1978 said: The defending was terrible for the goal, but again, the midfield is the issue. Easton and Turner are complete passengers right now, and if they don’t come back out for the second half then they’d have no complaints. Aye. Banging the same old drum, but there's a reason nobody else plays 4-1-3-2. Todorov is so free for the goal because Dick has had to go tearing into the middle of the park to pick up a free man, exactly where you're defensive midfield should be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’d get worse as you’re suggesting playing a poorer back four 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure Corr is worse than Murray…Masson and Hannah we’ve seen too little of to judge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corr has very much become better due to not playing. He was absolutely nothing startling in the games he’s played. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
embow Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 I'm trying to still be positive given how well we were doing up to Christmas or thereabouts but there is just nothing so far in this performance tonight to show that we have turned a corner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pub car king Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 f**k this attempt at defending we just can't do it. Perhaps there is method to Murray playing 7 forwards 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoBNob Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Good job that Raith brought in Turner and Rudden while losing O'Reilly. Good appropriation of funds that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
