SuperLeeMcCulloch 2,354 Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 12 hours ago, GA1972 said: We have no wide players available bar McCausland and Wright and yet we’re still shoe horning people out wide We should’ve packed the middle of the park on Saturday, narrow 4-3-1-2 formation. All the players able to play in their preferred position and could’ve given us a fighting chance in midfield. If we’ve no wide players back for the cup final that’s how we should be starting but we already know nothing will change Would that work? I don’t know but I know what won’t work is doing the same thing against them we’ve done from the start of the last 3 OF games and expecting a different result He seems to want to keep the 2 wingers and 1 up top in his system which was pretty baffling on Saturday when going down to 10 considering he could have just put Sterling in the middle or brought Raskin on for Souttar and put Sterling centre back and went 4-3-2 for the 1st 15 minutes of the 2nd half, Throwing Mccausland into that game was never going to work.

Hard to tell which ones would do better if only they had a bit more quality alongside them. Barring an unrealistic Clearout. GK - Butland RB - Tav, Sterling(Also CM) LB - Yilmaz, Jefte? CB - Souttar, Balogun or Davies CM - Diomande, Raskin, Cantwell or Lawrence W - Matondo, McCausland CF - Danilo, Dessers You add a 1st choice CB, a holding midfielder, attacking midfielder, 2 wingers and another CF and that squad although not perfect looks a lot better.

Need more than 1 centre half, davies is done here, balogun fitness is unreliable and souttar is a bombscare at the worst possible times Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balogun or Davies would be ok as 4th choice. Meant to put that Cordoba in if he is signing. More the point I was making is we are only 5 or 6 away from having a team that could win the title.

Diomande in the 10 if he’s intent on playing one and won’t play Cantwell, with Sterling alongside Lundstram. Everyone called Lawrence not having the legs and so it proved.

We desperately need Davies out the door, 4th choice centre half on 20-odd grand a week??? Same goes for Rabbi - hope Koppen has excellent powers of persuasion.

If he didn’t want to do that then Sterling had to be in there. I like Lawrence but he’s not the player he was and starting him again after how badly it went the last time killed us from the start.
