Popular Post Junior Soprano 22,428 Posted August 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2018 If we do make the group stages, then I think we need at least another 4 in to compete in all competitions. The bench last night was pretty average and no one on it if we needed to change the game.

EatDolphins 5,358 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Need a good quality striker, lafferty won't cut it. Need a reliable back up at CB. Other than that think we're ok till Jan. The No.9 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza1212 1,212 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Yep we need to replicate that double act thing Tav and Candias have got going on the right, only down the left side. With Borna in place we need a real top quality wide man now who's also willing to work his arse off for the team. We are so much harder to beat now it's unrecognisable from last year but we must, must, must get a proven finisher in the door to put games to bed earlier than we currently do. geneva_ger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post eskbankloyal 19,446 Posted August 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2018 The club has a decision to make now. We are very much favourites to advance to the group stages where the income all in is around £12-15m. celtic are under a little bit of pressure for the first time in 2 years, there is an internal feud and they will undoubtedly have to sell 1, maybe 2 players to make up CL shortfall. The second leg against Ufa is the day before the window so unlikely we will be able to wait & see the outcome. Lafferty will come in which is fine but a couple of other players, maybe at £2-2.5m each, probably a centre half & maybe another midfielder or striker could genuinely make the difference between winning the league or not. We cannot let this season be a ‘what if?’ Negri's lovechild, Bears r us, RDFM and 43 others 46 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply cannot keep on expecting Morelos, Goldson, Katic etc to play every single minute of every game. Also cannot expect Morelos to carry the burden of A) being only striker at club and B) to score all the goals. we need to beat Killie and Motherwell before going to the theatre of screams. Lets give ourselves the best chance of doing so. HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teddy77 9 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 We really need a winger who is a threat to score. That's what any system with a lone stirker needs. Someone who can cut inside and place a good shot from just outside the box. That's how the pigs won their recent titles, because in SPL nobody can defend inside cutting wingers who can shoot a bit. Obviously we need a backup for Morelos. Could do better than Lafferty, but won't complain either if it's him. In a 4-3-3 setup your wingers and midfielders just have to be able to score a decent amount. Then we obviously need a decent CB for cover and a creative playmaker with an eye for through balls would help too. Yesterday we could've caught them on the break a few times, but Arfield/Jack don't have a fine through ball, while Ovie doesn't pull the trigger often enough for my liking.

I also have reservations about Lafferty, but he has found out where the back of the beggars’ net is, which I don’t think can be underestimated.
