Popular Post ronniemca 479 Posted April 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 15, 2018 A lot of people stating (or making excuses for his display) that he is not a c/ h. He has played c/h for us and his country at all levels with the occasional runs at right back .he has never been a defensive midfielder in his life.but all of a sudden he seems to be the answer to our midfield.he does not have the composure on the ball to control the tempo of play for a defensive midfielder in my opinion and c/ h is his position all be it he has an awful lot to learn in that position.not helped by playing beside a fuckin bombs are like Martin right enough.

Lloyd 10,756 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Compare his performances in defence to his performances in midfield for us. He's brilliant in midfield and that should be his position going forward. I don't see a problem with starting him at CB today tho because he is better than anyone else we have fit there.

Copland bear 7,966 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Agreed he's a defensive midfielder , and remember he's notblong back from injury so not as sharp as he should be. And the fact Martin plays alongside him does not help. What the fuck did we ever see in him ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cushynumber 25,178 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 he is still very young and being slotted into positions on a Murty whim. Id like to see him get a run at CD. Robmc1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWR1979 2,037 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 He was shown up today, but he is still young and returning from a lenthy layoff, He has been overhyped by us as we are desperate for him to succeed. bluchoo, Bearsden bear, HG5 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's brilliant in midfield , this is whats wrong with us . He's no brilliant in midfield or anywhere else , he shows a bit of promise and hopefully goes on to be a player. These guys read shite like how brilliant they are and it goes right to their heads. Lets achieve something before we start saying any of this squad are any good. the brown brogue, BigBearButt and HG5 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaudrupsPatrickBoots 13,540 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 He's good in midfield. He was awful today in defence. He doesn't choose where he plays though, Murty does. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjbscotty12 3,581 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 He was shite today shite against dundee away shite against hamilton and they games were all at centre half, he is a CDM and nothing else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a good make weight for us in a couple of games, and played well, but then kind of faded out the picture in that position and was subbed a couple of times as I recollect. callumbo87, SPWF and sassaaaa 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIRB_72 4,148 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 He got bullied today, didn't get much help from his more experienced partner either. Still the best prospect at the club, but for me he's a DM, sniffs out and chases danger brilliantly and lets the others play. will2203 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cloud 3 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 I've been more impressed with him in CDM than centre half. That said, given the other options at centre back, I'll have him in there ahead of the likes of Martin and Cardoso. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingKirk 26,467 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 He is a CDM for me has the pace and power to play in there I'd say we missed his dig in midfield today crazy bob swollenbaws 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElBufalo20 8,158 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 He cost us goals in the first game at Ibrox. Still young and can improve but he showed in the games he's played this season he's better in midfield. Who knows how he started at centre back today and Alves was on the bench. Shouldve played all 3 and could of been flexible with McCrorie at either DM or move to a back 3. crazy bob swollenbaws 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bam74 1,071 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 we are desperate from him to succeed but the truth is he is a very average footballer regardless of what position he plays. we need better and until we realise it then days like today will become the norm.
