Weird_Beard 99 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 We'd get pumped by fast wingers even more so than now. We always concede from the wings and set pieces as McGregor, has one weakness, catching crosses. That wouldn't be the answer without two wing backs capable of tracking wingers.I think 3 at the back would suit Wallace and Whittaker down to a tee.

KeepBelieving1872 64 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I like him, but never a right back.This. I still rate him highly at centre back, he had a good game at Celtic Park when he played there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BILLYBOY50 1,638 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 how many times does he need to be told to stop playing players that are not that good in their own position never mind out of position terrible performance from more than half the team today not fucking good enough and ally mccoist will need to get his act together as he looks like he hasnt got a fucking clue. but i fear as i said before he got the job that it would be too big a job for a novice manager and it certainly looks like that now. ? maybe i am wrong and i certainly hope i am but its not looking too good now for ally and his backroom.

garycassidy1802 37 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I think 3 at the back would suit Wallace and Whittaker down to a tee.It'd maybe be worth a try, but with Whittaker unavailable, who? Only player we could put there is Aluko, then we'd be even more woeful in attack. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeepBelieving1872 64 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I agree with you on that comment and now having looked at him in a few matches I wonder if he will make it at anything other than lower League football.He is being played out of position and he is young but I have seen nothing in him that tells me he will come good.Seen nothing in him? Are you a scout for Rangers? Might explain the lack of potential stars in the u19's! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryMc 2,398 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 So whittaker is a RB is he? That's one of the main reasons that we are in this mess. Players gettin played out of position Plus he was singly responsible for losing our best chance of still being in Europe. I would never again play him. £20k plus? Jog on. Payed more than the whole DU wage bill!I know it's desperate times, but pleasesmell the coffee!As for Bartley, I would rather he be in my team against the scum, as whittaker is a grossly overpaid, underperforming pussy, but not the only one!Erm yes. I'd rather a hardworking and an actual RB playing at right back rather than a CB thug from someone elses youth set up.Whittaker may not be the best but he is a better RB than Bartley will ever be. Aluko for one would love Whittaker playing behind him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carsons Dog 9,878 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 The incredible thing about RM is shit players like Broadfoot and Whittaker suddenly become good when they are out injured long termShort memories loyalAs far as Bartley is concerned them Utd players wouldn't have ran freely through our midfield if he had been sitting in front of the back fourEdu is back to his worst again and offered nothing today as a holding or attacking midfielderOur defence was badly exposed today Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
