BigBearButt 3,627 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 I see the usual slating of the defence however the majority of pressure comes from the fact our midfield is fucking hopeless. As soon as we lose a goal the cowards go into hiding. Halliday is gash, holt isnt strong enough and windass doesnt look fit. They dont help the defence and create fuck all for the attackers. We need to buy a whole midfield in january. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Jela 20,361 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 The midfield is pathetic. Halliday is fucking useless, beyond useless. A slow, shite footballer and a shitebag. Holy appeared now and again with some positivity but was anonymous for the most part and Windass got involved enough and shouldn't have been took off. Now compare that to Brown, Armstrong and McGregor and it's quite scary. All 3 of them played their part and deserved the 3 points. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broxi 11,484 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Halliday was the worst player on the park along with Tavernier and Holt wasn't much better. This is why I don't get on the Holt hype, yeah he makes the 5 yard passes well but he just doesn't do much else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gersandy 594 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Our midfield has as much power as a mark one skoda. They all looked like a bunch of league 1 players out there today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven33jackie 1,920 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 A midfielder with some ball holding skills is a must. All to often a pass Is made just for the sake of making a pass. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kris1984 1,259 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Grim no just midfield, McKay only one with pass marks on final third for me. And defence... Tav... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeHaw 513 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Halliday & Tav were terrible today, I would be mortified if I was either of them, fucking our 35+ year old Kenny & Clint were coping with the pace of them game more than these 2.

NeoGeo7 10,501 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 For me the midfield is costing us games. We can't hold the ball at all because we are shite under pressure and too lightweight to hold off any challenges. With a better midfield the defence wouldn't be tested as often and the strikers would get more chances (but we lack quality up front too) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did play in fantastic pass for Miller which hit the post. I think he is more a box to box rather than trying to plan a holding role which he had never played until he came to Rangers.

GaryMc 2,394 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Remember when we added fight, talent and ability to our midfield in the summer? Rossiter? Barton? Kranjcar? Crooks? I can't be the only one that is amazed that after all the rambling about signing 11 players etc we actually still have pretty much the exact same team as last year.

LiviGer 648 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Halliday is murder. Holt is a creative midfielder trying to hold, never going to work. Windass isn't that good IMO. Tav isn't a midfielder. Major investment needed. I really doubt it will happen. Fucking scunnered. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakbear 3,586 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Halliday takes it tight on here. Agree he is not good enough for that Defensive midfield role. But who else do we have ? Crooks? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
