Jack The Flipper 5,936 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Amazed at the trust being shown in such rumours, no one knows for sure if he's out or not. I hope he's not, but it's quite funny how people automatically believe what could be a load of bull. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like the usual youth players that get a wee 10-minute cameo and don't do much but everyone raves about them - he was matured, composed, strong in the tackle and good on the ball. And he met the ball before it bounced. That's one thing I noticed Alves and Cardoso tend to do. Gives me a wee heart attack every time Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know he was still with us to be honest, but I always thought he looked head and shoulders above other defenders in the under 20's league - but that was season before last - I seen he was at Dumbarton last season but didn't know it was only a loan so I'm glad he's back and put in a good showing the other night.

I'm sure his brother is still with us, it would be good to actually produce a young centre half who could make the grade, big Moore is probably the last one we produced Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

baltic_blue 108 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Not surprised if true. Ever since I can remember we have always had shit luck with important players getting injured before we play them. If that young guy gets picked then so be it. Can only imagine the adrenaline he will be feeling. Living the dream of thousands. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck knows what happened to him. Did he not get thrown into an old firm game at 17/18? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeirFleckNRothen 1,789 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Throw McCrorie in. I thought he looked decent on Tuesday night and in all honesty, Alves hasn't shown the type of performances I had hoped. McCrorie captained our under-20s at 17, is a Scotland under-21 internationalist and from what I understand, would have featured last season ahead of Bates had he not been out on loan. On the topic of centre-halves, Danny Wilson is well and truly out of the picture, it appears. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davis1986 996 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Saying Alves is a coward no danger some people on social media are on smack. The guy has been there and done it all he certainly isn't going to be scared to face a celtic team which gets pumped all over Europe. If he's missing from Saturday then he will genuinely be injured fact. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottyscott1963 18,318 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 It's only a matter of a couple of hours since Pedro said he didn't know if Alves would make the match. So we can make of it what we will????? If it has to be Ross McCrorie then I am comfortable this kid will hold his own,after he mugged a 6'6" irish hammer thrower with a beautiful tackle on the half way line to start the move which led to Herreras goal.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
