Jig or Daly.... Daly or Jig.......


Recommended Posts

Who is the best striker? Hard to say. If Daily hasn't scored by 1.30 p.m on Sunday swap him with Jig. I have an agenda and I'm not hiding it. I want our two most experienced players. Both captains for years. Both able to play the centre back and striker roles. I want them to compete, to push each other on. Competition is good. Score in 45 or the other starts the second half as striker. What you think people?

It's a great idea in principle. Think it best to do it when we are winning comfortably. Although that could upset the one who has already played well. Trouble doing it when we are playing badly is that we could knock the confidence of both players in one game. Suppose neither scored what about the next game, who deserves to be upfront ? Or one scored from centre half and the other doesn't, what next game ? Think I'll keep it the way it is until it needs changing.

Daly has led the line well and should keep his spot. After 4 goals last time he deserves the full 90, unless he has a shockingly bad 1st half.

While people don't like Jig at CB we have been very mean defensively so far with him there and the duel threat of them both from set pieces is invaluable.

For a novelty I'd like to see us go with both up front for a game this season. CB's will be wincing in pain before a balls kicked seeing they're facing Jig and Jon. :) Won't be ran ragged but will finish the game with a few bruises for sure.

Just for the one match mind. They are both a class above the opposition in either position. There are dangers in doing it, but there are also potential rewards.

That's plain bullying! Seriously though, some good crosses into the box with J and J and there and a headed goal or two is almost a certainty. Is Ally reading this thread???

Always better to give than receive.

Also with Ayr known for being some dirty big bastards they would be the perfect candidates to think about unleashing J & J on them. Imagine the bash brothers from Mighty Ducks... :D

Your tactics have their merits, but I am 6 foot 3 and younger than you so shut the f*** up! *That was me internet bullying mate.

I would like to see Daly play at CB for a game, and have Jig up front, switching the two during a game would confuse the fuck out of the opposition.

Still need to see it proven over the season, but I think Daly is going to be shown to be the better striker throughout the year.

If we get a few injuries at center half Jig and Daly could play there together(not a good idea I know) and we could have 4 strikers/forwards on the pitch at once and perhaps score 10 in a game(not likely but you never know).I am not against the idea in op but I think they will push each other on regardless.

You could debate this all day and there's valid arguments either way but I think overall as a team we are stronger with Jig at the back and Daly up front. The stats don't like. We're s coring for fun and conceding very few.

Slap me with a wet fish if I do not, for once, find myself in total agreement with Denise. (tu)
