KingKirk 26,418 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I wonder what the future holds for him tbh. He's no been involved much since he got himself sent off. Midfield is a area we will be looking to improve on in January if not then definitely the summer. Is he gonna be another one that just disappears like so many before him or is he the real deal?

The Specky Forum Organiser 69,398 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Would definitely be trying to get him out on loan in January. Thought he would be a star for us this season but hasn't happened. Would personally have him ahead of Sid in the pecking order but that's not happening so a loan move would suit everyone.

Brubear 2,972 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I would have thought he would have performed well in the current squad with better players around him than last season. He obviously isn't doing enough at training to convince Gerrard to give him a starting berth. Would still like to see him get another chance, then see if he takes it.

I'm not sure anyone knows what that position is yet let alone make it his own. cascadeshrimp and Jonok 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElBufalo20 8,151 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 He’s still young and has been involved in plenty of match day squads. I think his development is going fine. Good squad player and I’m sure he’ll feature more next year. Laudrup1984, Amokachi and Spliffy 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverAndEver 73,785 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Should be ahead of Coulibaly, he’s unfortunate we’ve that many defensive minded midfielders now Blue Avenger, Spliffy and BridgeIsBlue 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueKnight87 17,835 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I remember him having a cracking game vs st Johnstone at ibrox. Sure he played holding mid and then rb that day. I think he'll go out on loan if as expected we add to the midfield in January. Spliffy 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hadron Collider 32,297 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Would love to be proven wrong but think he’s destined to be a squad player. Not sure he will fit in to SG’s plans as a starter. Can see him leaving as the team progresses on the current path. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the only bright point on last season but were things that bad anyone that gave everything in every game we'd be raving about? Was last season his level?

plumbGER 24,518 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 The fact he is involved in the squad and featuring off the bench suggests to me he is working hard in training and pushing for a spot. He was ok in the midfield last season imo, but only ok and his passing and decision making was very poor at times. His grit and determination to win the ball back was his best assets. In his defence though he is still very much learning the role after finding out he was never going to cut it at centre-half. He is learning from the right people and if he takes it on board and shows he can improve then I see no reason why he can't feature more often as we progress. As someone else said, it might be best loaning him out to get him games, that's half a season of proper coaching so he can maybe go out and show what he can do now then come back in the summer and kick on.

Game at Pittodrie at the end of the season he took that by the scruff of the neck and dragged us back into the game.

TMB 14,167 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Jack's made the CDM position his own and we have guys who can fill in there when he's out. McCrorie would be better off loaned out in January to get game time and see if he can develop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShanksRFC 3,882 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I'd consider him before Coulibaly at the moment who can't seem to get out the rut. Truly woeful passer of the ball aswell. KingKirk 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoopsLaud 4,186 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Clearly has the talent so maybe just not fancied over others by management. Hopefully he gets a couple of games soon so we can see how he is developing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are being selective we can look at Ross' performance at centre-back against the beggars, can't get much further away from a bright spot.
