cstamomusa 3,811 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Yet he is still out top scorer this season, go figure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandyinroyalblue 16,478 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Poor today. Looks like a guy playing with no confidence in his ability.lack of confidence fine but he had at least 10 crosses played into the box where he didn't move towards the ball but stood there expecting the ball to be put on his head Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nachothelegend 1,932 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Needs a striker up beside him when Shiels plays it's more or less a 4-5-1 formation.Indeed Deano was fucking raging First Half being asked to Play behind the Striker.He is an attacking LM .

Misteral 2,932 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Slow and cumbersome with not a lot of skill. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tannerall 25,935 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Got off the hook today, if we had lost would always have been remembered for that one missed chance. He consistently wins, and even lays off, the high balls and does seem to have reasonable ability to hold the front line.Would be interested to see how well he could play with an experienced inside man playing alongside him up front consistently before writing him off.Unfortunately Shiels plays a little too deep, Clark does not have the experience (or ability imo) and Little offers well...little.

LaudrupsPatrickBoots 13,540 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 lack of confidence fine but he had at least 10 crosses played into the box where he didn't move towards the ball but stood there expecting the ball to be put on his headExactly, a confident player would be attacking those crosses. 2 of the chances he had today, the volley he sliced terribly and the tame effort straight after that summed up his day for me today. His heads down and that game could still be going on just now and he wouldn't have scored yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

billyking195 58 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Daly needs to be dropped. He started the season well but has been getting progressively worse. He does some good work normally, but even that has been disappearing recently.Your right, he really needs to be dropped for his own good. This was his worst performance so far. We have seen this before with Walter sticking with the same players week in week out no matter how bad they play. We also need to stop lumpin balls forward. We just don't have a passing game and slow on the turn and move. Wasn't good. I think the players do have the ability to play a short sharp passing game, but I'm left wondering if they are being told tactically not to do it and the players are loosing respect as a consequence and going through the motions.

sonofbear 398 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 JD should have been rested weeks ago. Tactically we are utter pish. Even the wee teams have got us sussed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wullyRFC 5,230 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 He managed to score plenty goals for Dundee Utd from crosses out wide. We seem to cross the ball from our centre backs which just isn't his game. His first touch should be a shot or header at goal not holding off a defender 25 yards from goal as the highest player up the park. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelydan1690 20,228 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 He's not mobile enough to play 1 upfront,1 upfront against pub teams is a fucking joke Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reformation Bear 6,453 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 He does not look fit to me. To my eyes he looks as though he well less than 100% up for it. Wonder if he is carrying an injury or, like Wallace, fatigued and in need of rest. Well against the might Albion Rovers in the replay perhaps the Manager's thirst for lavishing out respect for the opposition will see JD rested with Rangers playing a 6 3 1 line up with six defenders in front of Bell to protect him and a single mobile striker (Little or Aird) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elephants stoned 2,994 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Amazed Ally subbed Jon for the first time ever! He's a good battering ram but he's tired and looking like he needs a rest. Jig can play up front if we must have a big man but id rather Clark and Shiels when Nickys back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dietspam 733 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 He was red hot at the start of the season. I don't understand why it takes Ally so long to drop a player. Took forever for him to drop Temps for a while when it just wasn't happening for him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Hilts 12,819 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 had an excellent start to the season but his form has undoubtedly dropped. well overdue to be dropped and should've been hooked at half time today Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
