    Don’t think he should be exempt from criticism tbh. Yesterday the first half Ross county had loads of room middle of the park they were running right through the middle ,Lundstram and dowell weren’t cutting it. Needed a change to Stirling in there and he wasn’t bold enough to make it.

     

    His decision to start Dowell was wrong and clear to see first half and instead of rectifying it he stuck with it.

    This was clear to see.  Butland had a brilliant save and they caused problems all first half.

    You’re probably the only one on here who agrees with me about not renewing Lundstram but this is exactly it.

    We need someone in that position who can control the game not only when winning but if losing and when under pressure.

    Davis was brilliant at it and Jack could do it but obvs not at Davis level.

    Davis was master class level, but at the same time the players were schooled to be around him for passing and possession.  The shape was excellent. It's been wayward as we go chasing winners - Motherwell and celtic most recently. Dowell sauntered back, Jack would have covered that.  Even then Sterling and Souttar made an arse of it.  Horrendous goal to lose.

    We are utterly awful in transition defence - their 3rd goal a superb example of what I've been moaning about with @McEwan's Lager all season. 

    Players just get pulled out of position and consistently make the wrong decisions then leave our defenders man-for-man at the back and 3 of our 4 defenders playing yesterday are truly awful 1v1 - we've conceded goals like that all season. Dowell is getting slated for jogging back but his initial position when Cantwell turns the ball over is the primary issue

    Given Clement has been in the door for months now and we've seen huge improvement in every other area of our game, I'm assuming he has been working on it with the team but they're just not good enough. 

    Good point. The same happened against Motherwell.

    They actually aren't, they are the easiest and clearest rules we've had

    Now there's no refs interpretation of accidental or intentional, they dont need to try figure that out, 

    Today it went against us rightly so, but imo the rule is better than it ever has been

    Pish. It’s a fuckin joke.

    Loads of times in the first half where it needed a quick pass out to him and he was wide open. He was screaming for it but no one was interested, we were way too slow and lacking quality going forward 

    Missed Cortes big time.

    If Roofe can't make 60 minutes or more then I'd rather we put Cantwell up top as a false nine rather than have to put up with the Nigerian Nightmare for another match.

    Sterling, false nine.
