I'd have Lundstram Sterling and Diamonde as more advances midfielder starting on Sunday. No Catwell or Lawrence starting. Need Yilmaz / Balogun fit to free up Sterling.

Didn't say he started, didn't realise that was a condition of the discussion. Yilmaz thread - discussing yilmaz. No-one has said he's a superstar ffs 😂 But are you refuting our recent form coincides with him being out - and as a result Sterling being LB with the gaffer seemingly not interested in Barisic? As for your edited in comment. There's no real alternative for the gaffer other than Sterling who imo we need in the middle, is there?

I'd actually be happy if we got more efforts on target from them. Baby steps and that 😂

Calm doon 😁

In before the stats guys tell us on average 2% of corners lead to goals... Damn, too late 😁

We're disappointed mate.

He couldn't agree with him given he'd said there was an improvement whilst Sterling said they were shite. Fair dos by him ignoring the conflicting views and making it about media savvyness 😁

Should interview Sterling again so he could say his gaffer talks shite 😂😂😂

Since the winter break he's played domestically 12 times winning 11. After Motherwell we won the domestic game versus Hibs then he's been out and our season has nosedived. In no way do I reckon its all down to him not being available but I think it's fair for folk to say he's been missed. I'm desperate to see him return to allow Sterling to add steel to the midfield instead of Lawrence. Whether PC would make that move I'm not sure, but it at least gives us the chance for it to happen. Edit. I'd grab the money we spent on him if we could get it back in the summer.

Up front is woeful, the press is all wrong and for weeks few of our front 4 have got passmarks. They've been easily bypassed, and then our holding 2 (typically not even naturals in that position other than Lundstram) are being outnumbered. Teams getting at our defence too easily as a result. They're pretty much all playing shite individually and collectively, with little confidence, but for me it's our forward 4 who are the causing the issues for the players as available. I do think Yilmaz back and Sterling in midfield could alleviate some of the problems, but we really need more from the front guys with creating and taking chances and pressing / chasing back when out of possession. Am sure plenty will disagree 😂 Edit. Lawrence is a disgrace so he needs personally highlighted.

So if we lose the league before the SC final does the cup then not matter? Mate there's been some amount of shite on this forum over the years but your post is right up there.

Said it previously as much as I want to win on Sunday I think there's a better chance of Hearts beating the scum in the final than us.

I get what he's trying to do and why. But when it's such nonsense / blatant lies then he'll lose the credibility and goodwill he's has. Especially if we don't win the cup and inevitably lose the league. There's plenty deflection soundbites that managers know to use rather than last nights bs from him.

The team is giving everything apparently. The reaction was good. The only problem was not finding the back of the net. It's either delusion or bullshit to back his players.Time will tell which. He retains this leadership group in the summer without trying to move them on then he's signing his own sacking.

Goal contributions once per 3 games including plenty goals whilst at Derby im sure I read. We've not got the version that looks like he's a punter from the crowd who had a cargo on the way to the game.

Hearts will relish this and I'm dreading it going the way I expect it to. If they thought the atmosphere was bad last night it'll be absolutely poisonous if we shit the bed on Sunday. Mostly the players but there'll be no hiding place for Clement either.

We just need to win every game now, turn around our slump, and overhaul a worsening goal difference situation, and even though its now not fully in our hands nothings changed after last night....

Contract expires this summer. It would be utter negligence and a sackable offence to offer an extention. Unfortunately the even worse Tom Lawrence has another year unless we can find a mug club to take him.

Hes lost the ability to pass the ball so he's not really anything be it a 5, 8, 10, 11 or any number from a pack of fucking cards.

It'll be a win alright but I don't see anyone paying either a fee or wages that means he leaves without getting a payoff from us.

Good points. And it's not fair to overly criticise. He absolutely deserves the chance to overhaul our squad as is our pre season ritual these days. But nor should he excused strong and justified criticism for a number of his actions and comments in the last month. He's done little that's had any positive impact.

On 30k per week? Bring them on.

His distribution is awful. Like proper, not professional footballer level awful. Goes nowhere on the odd dribble before losing possession. But his passing like in the last minute tonight isn't even amateur level.

List of suitors willing to pay him that: End.

The story of tonight for Clement is "the ball did not go in". We'd next to fuck all shots on target 2nd half. He's not impressing in his interviews in the slightest.
