With our resources/transfer fees/wages it is a total embarrassment we can’t beat Kilmarnock. How is anyone, manager included, satisfied with that tonight? In the context of how the game panned out a draw wasn't unsatisfying ....just. No matter how much resources a team has they are not entitled to win every match. We didn't deserve to lose and Killie could have lost and would really have had no complaints if they had. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lafferty and Defoe aren't imo suited to that loan striker role. Both work better with a partner up front. We looked a lot more threatening with the flat 442 at home. Than the diamond that took away our width. The 442 at Ibrox was against St.Mirren who are the worst team in the league I wouldn’t read too much in to it.

Defensively he was poor and going forward was absolutely rotten. 4 or 5 times in the 2nd half a simple ball out wide to Kent was on and he played it back into the middle which was congested and the packed Kilmarnock midfield were all over it. Halliday will definitely be needed later in the season but tonight shows why Barisic will be important for us to really kick on. Halliday is a pretty average player tbh,we need upgrades on jack and candieas and if arfield doesn’t buck up his ideas he can join that list too. positives tonight we didn’t really look like conceding,McCrorie had a good game and we are still in hat for cup.

He was generally really poor tonight I thought. The guys around me were saying about his constant going inside too, and on the couple of occasions he did try and go down the line it went straight out of play. Don't get me wrong I like the guy and he'll have a big part to play this season, but the debate about who's our first choice left back was comfortably answered tonight, and it's definitely not Halliday.

Grundy 732 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Have a few concerns, I'm a fan of Arfield but he seems to have faded in the last few games. Jack wasn't influential today. and so far don't think Barisic has lived up to expectations. SG seems to have doubts about him as well and in a do or die game I'd pick Halliday before him, regardless of how he played today. We badly missed Alfredo today and I don't know whether it'll be best to stick with Defoe up front on his own or fit Lafferty in. Got a feeling SG isn't too sure about this as well.

KBOO72 4,372 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Another game that showed just how much we rely on 2 or 3 players. When those guys are unavailable or their performance levels drop we become a fairly mediocre team. Can't wait till the summer so we can send the ginger rat packing and hopefully get 3 or 4 quid for the big, stupid, useless lanky rat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
