I would hope the likes of Naismith, McGregor, Davis, McCulloch etc would take a pay cut for the time being. But things have changed now, I am not totally convinced they would.
What worried me the most today was the work done off the ball, not one player interested in pressurizing the opposition, we need more energy in the midfield.
He would be best suited in a 4-4-1-1 with wingers making runs in behind for him to pick out, still think he can become a key player in the not so distant future.
