Courtyard Bear 41,357 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Nicky should just keep working hard Kenny hasn't a full season in him, he will get his chances.Those stupid short corners last night might hurry it up a bit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBearButt 3,566 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I'd love to see Clark and Miller be given a run of games, would force the ball to feet instead of hoofing it up the park.Boyd has looked terrible since rejoining us, you can blame lack of service all you want but his shooting accuracy has been poor, either directly at the keeper or 2 yards off target. IMO he is looking like he needs a rest and all the pressure taken off him.I'd also like to see Daly more often, he has his critics but I'd like to see him paired with Miller or Clark for a decent run of games. Despite my reservations in signing him he has proved to be a good player for us (apart from when McCoist played him when he was injured/unfit ofc).

STEPPS BOY 73,141 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Should be Clark or Daly partnering Miller on Saturday..Boyd needs dropped.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimfanciesthedude 24,358 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 i dont understand the miller love in tbh, when he was here last time his asset was playing on the last man, and getting balls played in behind to drag defences all over the shopNow he is dropping deep, almost on top of our midfielders (if we could find law that is) and what that does is allows the defenders to close down the space our midfielders wantwe dont have guys like davis, naismith and dare i say it edu, guys who will make runs in behind miller if he gets the ball to feet, miller needs to sit on the last man and force team to drop deep, creating more space for our creative players like macleodThe way clark and boyd played together when miller wasnt fit should have kept them together until they went off form, instead miller came right back in and we look less of a threat on goal when defences are half decent Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clemdog 39,389 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Daly & miller at tynecastle for meDo you go two up top at Tynecastle? We can't let their midfield crowd us out or else we'll be fucked with McCoist's lack of tactics. KeeperFoster McGregor Zalikuas WallaceBlack LawAird Macleod TempletonMiller Miller can hold the ball up well when the ball comes into his feet.

TheBluenose1972 1,405 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I'd rather have Kenny and Clark up top.Boyds pish. Is Boyd not our top scorer this season and also he has the most assists? lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Godfather 70,782 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Is Boyd not our top scorer this season and also he has the most assists? lolBoyd is horrible. He's joint top with a midfielder... mainly because Miller and Clark have been out for prolonged spells with injury.Last night he done nothing but blow great chances and he does it on a weekly basis just now.At least when Kenny and Clark aint scoring they offer something, Boyd has zero pace and is a lazy footballer.People on here were going on about how he was ging to score 30-40 goals this season Aye...maybe on the playstation.

Can't argue with his work rate so far though.As I see it Boyd's work rate puts him above Daly, the same as Miller's experience put's him ahead of Clark. For now.

They'll play 1 up top with Sow. So having two players in the middle of the park who are better at retaining the ball than Law and Black I think it's a risk, especially since they'll have another man in there as well. I think Jim mentioned a 4-3-3 and the team would probably look quite good on paper. But you'd worry that both Clark and Miller would slip back into a midfield 5.

Yes, with the ball you want the 3 strikers up there predominantly, but under pressure the wider players dropping in is useful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
