sonofbear 398 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Our CB's are painfully slow. Could be Murty is looking for an additional one to play as a sweeper. The No.9 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross-Gazza genius 1,890 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Regardless of how shite Cardoso and Alves are we must not ever put Lee Wallace at cb in a competitive match. Folk saying he can't be any worse seriously need to consider what you're typing before you post, possibly the worst idea I've heard. He can't defend and gets caught out at lb as it is, his biggest asset was his engine at playing lb but now that's gone he's a squad player now. siddiqi_drinker 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunk and disorderly. 14,204 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Would be hard pushed to be any worse than the two clowns who finished on Sunday for us. Alves is slower than evolution and Cardoso couldn't read his own name don't mind a football match. offminorthreat and Dickie 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, we are poor in central defence at the moment so it might, just might, be worth a try. I'd like to think he could cope with Kris Boyd's pace this weekend - surely????? Boyd would have a field day against Cardoso..... Rag doll him all day long. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

islandblue 366 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Mentioned to one of the coaches a few months back if this was a possibility and he said definitely not. He said Wallace had suffered a neck injury when he was a boy in Edinburgh which prevents him stretching properly. He said that was why despite his height he doesn’t come up for corners. Seems therefore it’s a non starter Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did we not also try him there once before, under Ally, or is my memory playing tricks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dickie 12,905 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I still don’t understand why Danny Wilson was allowed to leave,he had been playing well and was miles better than those 2 Portuguese chancers. We were also told mccrorie needed a rest but with our record of treating injuries I am sure he is needing major surgery as we speak. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tannerall 25,935 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I thought years ago he was worth a try at centre back, haven't changed my mind.

SIRB_72 3,928 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I'm no fan of Cardoso but I would much rather him there than Lee Wallace. As others have mentioned the worst part of his game is defending. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

five stars 1,606 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Wallace as a centre half is a bad idea. Maybe in an emergency due to injuries and suspension. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
