lanarkshire_bear 83 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 On Saturday we also attacked more often down the right flank than the left, meaning Barisic was operating more defensively. Understandably, he hasn't developed the same understanding with Kent as Tav and Candeias have. Once we get a more settled team, we'll see the best from him.

Malvern 11,329 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Fucking hell the bloke is just in the door, part of the best defensive unit we have had in years and people are having a go at the man? i like the look of him and the cut of his Jib seems fine to me.

graeme_4 34,520 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I like him. Solid and athletic, and has show he has quality at times. Will be a great signing I’m sure - just needs a steady run in the side. Malvern 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianferguson 2,619 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Think he has the tools for the job but at present he lacks belief . I get the impression playing in front of 50,000 is a little daunting at the moment but i feel confident him and Grezda will both excel when they're fully settled in.

Cedrick 8,048 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Hasn’t looked the player with us he did against us so far , steady enough but looked a real goal threat and creator against us Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Only thing that's frustrated me about him so far is his reluctance to release the ball to the player in front when they make a run. Then he done it on Saturday and the ball went out the park. So just needs to work on that then I won't be able to fault any part of his game. Good at short passes and crosses, but not great at the through ball down the line. That's coachable though so something for him to work on...

Spliffy 643 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Don't think Papac is a fair comparison, his success was a total surprise and he cost under a million I'm sure. A converted, pretty poor centre half that nobody thought would be kept once Walter was in. An unsung hero and immaculate professional. I have to be honest and say I expect more from the signing of Barisic and I think we will get more. Once settled and more confident I think he will be a real standout. More attack minded than Papac, and his deliveries are almost always quality. We've spent a fair whack on him, and as long as he's contracted and stays injury free then it's win win for us. He performs really well, we make a big profit. If he plays well enough and is consistent (Papac comparison now) then we have a position sorted for many years.

His first game straight after kick off he was ahead of Murphy. Murphy was looking at him like wit the fuck? Looked lost (Murphy) after the sending off he never went beyond Murphy again. He's learning to time his runs quickly, rather than just head straight past the winger as soon as we get the ball. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueMe 25,327 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 1st choice- Barisic 2nd choice- Wallace 3rd choice - Halliday 4th choice -Flanagan That would be my preference if everyone is fit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluenose-11 196 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Average for me. Do appreciate he hasn’t been here too long and I expect him to get much better. No doub. I am surprised he’s as high up the pecking order for Croatia as he is though, which hopefully suggests he’s yet to show his best Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
