We need defensive solidity, so it feels only right to have those 3 screening the CBs. The obvious issue is no Morelos, but there is no alternative to Roofe. Hopefully their CBs aren't as physical and he can do a better job at holding the ball up than he did vs Carter-Vickers. Last time we played them Morelos was out and we played Kamberi up front alongside Hagi and Kent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForeverAndEver 72,157 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Is it a rule that any striker we sign doesn’t know the offside rule or something? At least Morelos has learnt it Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be tempted with that too. Braga played such a high line last time, and Roofe just isn’t working in the role.

But Braga play a very high line and pace is what we need. Roofe offers fuck all. Had a good effort on Sunday from memory?

SkylineBlue 24,327 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Roofe is a good striker and will get us goals if we acknowledge that he isn’t Morelos and change our system to suit him better. We're not going to do that though and he'll probably get injured against St.Mirren anyway, so what's the point.
