Our centre halves have never played as a 3 either. Oh and we've got 3 days to practice a whole new formation. If Gerrard tries it and it doesnt work with us dropping points will you fight his corner against inevitable shouts for him to go? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, because if we play halliday on the left killie will simply overload our right hand side and it will be like watching flanagan again, Unless he simply tweaks the system, plays flanagan and instead moves the number tens wider as wingers (kent and aribo) and gives hagi and arfield free run in the number ten role Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt. I'd crucify him for utter incompetence and stupidity. I don't think theres an ideal replacement for Borna. Not sure how good Patterson or Polster are on the left side. Re watching Flanagan I agree, which I'm pretty sure was the argument I used when I argued for Patterson when you wanted Flanagan for St Mirren then Hearts. Think he'll keep the same shape and like today go with Halliday. Not ideal, but far better than altering the formation we've used all season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you wont crucify him for playing a system that relies on our flying fullbacks but doesn't have one on the left hand side I argued for flanagan because i thought gerrard might have slightly altered our system to accomodate him, he didnt and we suffered, if we play halliday, polster or patterson (no chance) on the left and expect them to do barisic job and they cant, then we will probably suffer again I really dont see the issue with altering our style slightly to accomodate replacement players, why try put square pegs into round holes when you can get square holes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have 3 CBs (playing in an unfamiliar role) and a defensive midfielder marking 1 striker and 2 fullbacks (also playing an unfamiliar role) along with a striker who's better off playing as a lone striker - you're suggesting we play 6 players in an unfamiliar position, just to accommodate 1 player missing. Also, we tried 3-5-2 against Aberdeen and it didn't work, so it won't be happening again. You should probably stop suggesting system changes at this point, it's not happening, especially some of the shite you come up with tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wont criticize him for playing the best player for the system the players have used all season. On the left if that's Halliday so be it. Not ideal but he's likelier to get involved in attack than say Flanagsn. On the right it was never going to be successful with Flanagan in previous games. A wee bit critical of Gerrard in your post above, rather than accepting Flanagan just failed to deliver. At least versus St Mirren he tried by getting into more advanced positions, a goal actually came from it after a clearance and ball back in. Hearts he reverted to type. Still, I'm sure like you say you'd have the gaffers back if he went 352 and it failed 😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
