If DJ could sort out the defensive side of his game (like Tav has this season) then he would be a fantastic option down the left. Tav was absolutely brutal defensively this time last year so if our coaches can sort out that side of his game then hopefully they can do the same for John.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s got good attributes for a LB just needs to tighten up a bit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Geezer 28 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Here we go again..................injury,injury is all we have over the past 25 years Oleg Kutnesov and Michael Mols being prime examples Jordan Rossiter is unfortunately finished and we should realise that. Lee Wallace might get back in the team cos Declan John is no better as a defender. Bruno Alves is no Davie Weir and he will be gone in the summer. Dorrans back in Midfleld ... possible Russell Martin .... not sure .... first impressions are poor. Ross ..............yes get him fit ASAP Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenoz 30,944 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Not much between John & Wallace. Will be a tough decision for Murty. I think he will end up with experience over youth. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malkytfp1 18,614 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 *Candeias lovers turn away now.* Wouldny mind seeing Wallace Left back with DJ pushed forward into left mid. Move murphy over to the right. Would make us more solid against the likes of the tarriers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah we should definitely remove the player with the most assists on the league to a accommodate a perma injured left back and a powderpuff defender who can’t defend .makes sense Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time Wallace was up against that wee perv he was shocking defensively. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomatasauce 1,253 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I don’t think there is much between Wallace an John defensively but John is a bigger threat on the ball imo plus he likes cutting inside an having a shot or creating an assist so I’d keep John in but when fully fit an match sharp Lee Wallace isn’t a bad player to have about the place captain or not he’s been out a long time an dosent deserve to just walk back in  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think Fod inspires confidence, think we should fastrack young Robbie McCrorie at least backup in front of Alnwick and Kelly. Never no he might make the same impression as Ross.

I don't think fast tracking young players is a great idea at the best of times never mind doing it with a goalkeeper. Recipe for disaster.

JCDBigBear 10,831 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 11 hours ago, graeme_4 said: I think many would disagree. Wallace has been woeful for years. Good feeling and a brief resurgence under MW are the only reason he’s still around IMO. Neither are good defenders. Mental that Tav gets the most stick out of all our fullbacks. Wallace has been limited by the quality of players around him. He is no Roberto Carlos but he defends better that John.  Tavernier can be outstanding at times going forward but defensively he can be a bomb scare.
