  1. Rotation, its a squad game with loads of games to be played.

    (tu)

    Injuries and suspensions usually determine when our rotation takes place. I don't know if I like the idea of rotating players otherwise.

    Dropping players when they don't perform is what I prefer.

  2. If we have a few bob left in the kitty, a quality striker should be brought in. We're covered everywhere else in the team.

    Splashing out on Jelavic worked out, (although it was a gamble that nearly blew up in our faces), and that's what Ally should do again.

  3. Weiss got played upfront on his own for 10 minutes of one game.

    But Wylde? Not for me.

    Wee Bud had a million more tricks than the likes of Wylde (or Weiss), so I'm not using it as a direct comparison, but his pace meant he was a great strike partner when played at inside left.

    I know I'm digging into the annals of history with that one, but we have had precedents of speedsters being a good option as a second spearhead.

  4. It's been mooted that we might have a problem at centre forward if either Jelavic or Lafferty gets injured or suspended (if another striker isn't signed).

    I think that young Wylde might be able to step in there no problem at a pinch, to partner either of our 2 best strikers.

    As a precedent, we've seen Johansson go from winger with not much else but pace to decent striker, and it's entirely possible that Gregg could do the same if called on.

    I can see this working if we needed to do it.
