In what world is that 'dropped a lot of points'? Are you deliberately picking it up wrong? They dropped 31 points against the rest. They won the league beating us 3/4 times and even then it might not have been enough if we'd took care of our business against the rest.

Popular Post MurrayWilson 3,685 Posted September 11 Popular Post Share Posted September 11 2 hours ago, J-Maestro said: If you put 3 quality players through the spine of our team you don't think we would be a different side? Our whole squad isn't shite. EDIT - I've not been saying they were shite for years either. They're still very capable of dropping points throughout the season and will. Thats true. First thing any proper manager does is sort the spine out. Souness first signing was actually himself, that was the midfield sorted. Then he signed woods as goalie and butcher as cenrtre half in short order. Already had McCoist and fleck up front. He worked his team round that solid core for years. Its bewildering that for years we havent sorted out a really decent cenre half and took things from there. Instead we just seem to sign players in some sort of haphazard way with no real plan.

What in the fuck Beale was planning that summer is something Beale wouldn't be able to answer. BlueKnight87 and MurrayWilson 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair I think that's what Propper was signed for, but it's all relative an open midfield leaves our defence exposed. Doesn't matter if we have Franco Baresi at the back if they're left that open whilst having to cover for full backs. As much as I think Lundstram moving on was the right thing, we are missing the midfielder who used to fall back and cover that area. theiconicman 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are not 3 or 4 players short...its a squad we are short. A squad and a complete change in attitude/mentality within it. We are so mentally weak against them it's unreal. Seen it again in the last game as soon as they scored the heads dropped. The Godfather and Negri's lovechild 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re an absolute mess. Unti Bennett, the Parks, and whatever clown sits at the top of the medical department at a minimum are removed this will still continue. This is the crux of it. Back Clement or don’t , it doesn’t matter because it will end in failure with this board in place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
