Blue Avenger 22,567 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 He certainly does know what he wants and has sussed what he has inherited with that assessment. Full frontal on them. Be a few of them bealing. Well they've udeservedly had the cream for quite a while now, so time for them to get to fuck. For those that remain, hopefully not many, if that assessment doesn't spark them to get their butts into gear, nothing will. Just hope to fuck he gets the budget needed and I'm not being lulled into false sense of security, or this forum will pay the price. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johanhentze 14,089 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I reckon they probably know... their heads are down and will not produce for Pedro again.. These players have no pride and would rather try and fuck things up than put in a shift. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Kante, rather have him than Fellani any day of the week. Mcall, Gattuso players of that ilk would do for me, fortify that midfield, still hoping wee Rossiter can fufil his promise now that his injury has been diagnosed and treated properly Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's lacking physically but an intelligent player with more heart than any of his fellow midfielders. Not saying he's brilliant but certainly a useful squad player.

Tidy, doesn't give the ball away, always moving. He's never going to be a spectacular attacking mid, or tough tackling anchor man, but with those types alongside him I think he could be a very good player for us. You need a guy in that "number 8" type role, keep your midfield ticking over, get the ball from back to front. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
insider 123 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I think PC has said the correct things and we all know what type of players we need and for what positions. It's getting them that's the secret. If PC could just go out and get them, are they at his previous club? If the type of players he wants are not at his previous club, why not? Money talks.. I'm keeping my fingers crossed but I'm sceptical. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we just continue with the usual pish of just get them off the books no matter then we are fucked. All the fanfare around his appointment from within the club has been misplaced. He hasn't spoken out in favour or support of the fans and if he's involved in transfer dealings God help us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what your saying about Holt, but we want to be challenging Celtic, and I think you need to be more than a tidy player with no Standout qualities to play in our midfield. I can't even remember Holt get near Celtics midfield in the two games, he was totally missing, along with the rest of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cam1872 251 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I've been sceptical about Pedro at best but I have to say, I really don't think he is getting as much credit as he deserves for this interview. What he has said is pretty much spot on, he doesn't seem like he is messing around. Yes it is perhaps just talk. It is good talk though. He's still to win me over, but more of this will do for a start. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the space of 8 weeks he has said we have the best squad in Scotland to saying he's having a clear out. Not convinced and not particularly keen on him looking at only players he knows and has worked with. The leagues he has managed in probably couldn't be any more different from Scottish football. Here's hoping I'm wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caixinha, who replaced Warburton at the weekend, said: 'This is the squad we have for now and we really trust the players we have right now. For us, this is the best squad in Scotland. We just need to give them confidence.' I get why he said it and it was an attempt to build confidence within the squad but I'm just wary of being confident based on sound bites especially when it is so contradictory.
