  1. Raskin's not even first choice for that position either - Wright's got it sewn up I haven't written Raskin off either, but not convinced he's Clement's type of player
  2. As long as you get lettuce on it, a burger counts as a salad so I don't see the problem
  3. I'd have thought Sterling would be the guy if we were going for a man marking approach
  4. Yeah, I get that. But it did look as if it had been given a good forking over to "help with the drainage"
  5. He's out of contract though. I'm sure we'll offer him something, but at 30 it'll be his last big deal, probably and I suspect he may get better offers from down south.
  6. I know the BBC sometimes have difficulty finding much gossip to talk about, but putting the fact that Besiktas would like to sign Joe Worrall on the "Scottish Gossip" page really is scraping the barrel.
  7. It was a disgrace. As I don't usually watch St Johnstone on a regular basis, anyone one know whether their pitch is always like that, or did they do some "preparation" just for us?
  8. I get the impression that Clement favours quick, athletic players. Not sure Raskin is really the type of player he wants
  9. He's a real asset. Obviously, it helps any footballer to be a such a balanced runner with pace and strength, but he's got technical ability as well
  10. Thank fuck for VAR EDIT - wrong thread
  11. Yeah, might work ok. With such a low block, skill probably more useful than pace
  12. TBF, it looks like they've had a herd of cows on the pitch all week.
  13. Now that Wright is over on the right, can we get Matondo on instead of him, please? EDIT: left Fucked that up..
  14. I'm aware of that, but watching him play for us, I don't see enough pace for him to play a wide role
  15. Lawrence doesn't have enough pace to be the wide player in a three and isn't a CF, so no. I think he either competes with Cantwell for no 10 or Diomande in centre mid. I like the look of Diomande, but faced with a very, very low block on Sunday, I'd like to have Lawrence's shooting from distance available
  16. Thinking about Dessers Would I be ok with the idea of us starting next season with 3 CFs - Danilo, A.N. Other (eg Miovski) and Dessers? In all honesty, I probably would. Yes, I'd happier if we signed Mbappe and Haaland but if Dessers can offer 20+ goals I think he is a reasonable squad option. That said, if an offer came in which allowed us to get back what we paid or even make a profit, I'd probably sell. But I don't think we should be trying to offload him at a big loss.
  17. There's probably too many variables involved. Yes, we face a low block more than Hearts, but you usually only score when you are in possession and we have the ball a lot. You also need supply- Tav played the cross/pass for all three goals on Wednesday and we have players like Cantwell who can create. Still don't think we should be signing Shankland in the summer, mind
  18. Up until last night, I felt he was still feeling his way back fitnesswise, but he really was excellent. I'm so impressed that Clement has found a way to combine Lawrence and Cantwell (also v good last night). When Lawrence arrived, a lot of the time I was thinking about him as a number 10, or even wide as a front three in an "inside forward" type of role (the way Gerard played 4-4-3) The way Clement is playing him avoids the issue of lack of pace for a wide position and keeps Cantwell as the more natural no 10 (IMO)
