Burts91 427 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 We're a better side with McCrorie in the team. His technical ability is a bit fucking woeful in my opinion but we look more assured. Ryan Jack for me has been a passenger for weeks. McCrorie - Arfield - Kamara midfield trio for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smile 26,600 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 We were predictable again last night we are an easy team to play against Gerrard has to find different systems of play. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gaffer is not going to change the team after big wins like that. Yet he changed the team after beating celtic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly wouldn't have started Morelos, said that, and I think Lafferty offers more as one up front than Defoe. For confirmation, id start Laffery on Saturday. At the moment I'm leaning towards as a front 2 with Defoe. OhW 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
backup 4,724 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 giving a guy another contract at circa 30k a week and a £22 million release clause was never going to make for happy campers in the dressing room. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCrorie isn't great technically but he certainly wouldn't have played a sloppy pass across our box like Kamara did. In terms of the game after that and going forward there isn't much he could have done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which it was. And because as a one up front at home in the system Gerrard plays I think Lafferty offers more physicality and mobility than Defoe who waits for chances to come to him. Imo Laffery offered more when he came on than Defoe, and his ball through to Defoe was more effective than anything Morelos did, though he should have got a penalty. Not saying Lafferty is the answer, but last night I think he would have been a better solution to start with Morelos on the bench.

josmc 525 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 The boys a decent prospect but he would have made no difference last night. It’s a midfielder that can see a defence splitting pass that we need. McCrorie is useful if your trying to make it a scrap,which is by he did so well against the tarriers on the 29th. He’ll go on to earn a decent living but I don’t think he’ll ever be a world beater. I also think it’s unprofessional to be having a go at the manager in public. That’s something he should have the balls to do in the managers office. The whole thing is probably a non story though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha he needs to learn what professional means , and you are on here every day defending the idiot up front. That game last night needed a bit of strength in the middle , something none of the three that played have. Boy is quite right to be pissed off , the manager is fuckin clueless. There was fuck all happening from the midfield last night and he took off two midfielders and put on two strikers , thats a guy that hasnt a clue what hes doing......

Don't think I've ever heard a player be so outspoken before. He had every right to be angry but that was not the way to handle it. A face to face meeting with Gerrard this morning would have been the way to go. If he had requested it before the game but to be held today he would be in a very strong position after the performance and result last night. If the team had performed well and won Gerrard could rightly had said he picked the team he knew could win the game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gj923 1,457 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Guy is also a fan so i think its a case he thinks he is saying it to fellow fans and its not like he is briefing the press unlike some before him.

trueblueal 2,117 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 McCrorie is the closest we have outfield to a captain. He's 100% effort all the time. McGregor is the captain without the band just now. Tav is a good attacking fullback but hes not a captain. His personality is laid back joker type. Give me a snarling cant all day long.
