Truth_is_out_there 197 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Another poor result, but the ONLY positive I took from the match today was our midfield trio: good energy, passing and vision at times. Toral is looking better each game he plays, and Hyndman is just class. Holt covered every inch of grass and had a good game too. I think we should stick with this midfield trio until the end of the season, as they will get much better as they get to know each other's attributes. We're STILL toothless in the last third though!

Gman36 3,456 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 You kidding on?? It was obvious to me on Wednesday that a midfield three composed of two young loan signings and Halliday was a disaster. So what does he do today? The same two loan signings and holt! Fucking ridiculous. Midfield was absolutely powderpuff today. Aye to be fair hyndman and toral did come into it a bit more near the end of the game, but nowhere near good enough.

kris1984 1,276 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Midfield was shite! What game were you watching, the bullied us off the ball with ease and we didn't have anyone commanding it. Ran clean through the middle of us a few times too and they're was no real creativity. i thought Hyndman looked out of position and Toral improved as game went on but he was only 'okay' Holt is shite Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1690tamRFC 5,001 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Hyndman is a class act it's plain to see, but fuck sake the lad is never a defensive midfielder, he struggled big time, especially first half, I'm not digging the boy he should never have been played in there in the first place as it completely stifled him as an attacking threat, which is his game. Another crazy decision Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I will get pelters for this but -- while we rode our luck -- Ross County are lucky to have that goalie. Otherwise it was 4-1 rangers.

Ok, but we've tried every permutation possible this season with the current squad we have and they have been found wanting. That's why I think the trio today should be given a chance to gel. And the WHOLE team was shite on Wednesday, not just the midfield. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, we will have to agree to disagree then mate, as I think his passing is good and he holds onto the ball well. He lacks serious pace though.

Agree mate plus his positional sense is atrocious.Some of his crossing today was abysmal.Still living off the odd decent free kick on the Championship.Would rather have a defender who can defend than one who goes walkabouts and doesn't seem to know what's going on around him.Actually thought he started the season much better but another one who gets a game without offering anything to the team lately.

philiprfc 1,799 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Our midfield isn't physical enough, we constantly get bullied off the ball. Way too lightweight. Warburton needs to realise centre mids don't need to be built like a needle in order to play with his tactics. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
