billythebear1986 316 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 i think old kirky boy should be instead of auld davy. 1. he has youth on his side, 2. last week at falkirk he didnt put a foot wrong 3. looks like he has a gd understanding with bougherra. 4. weir is 38 he cant continue to play at the top level 5. the weir cuellar partnership is no longer. what u guys think Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace 3,556 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Totally agree, Broadfoot has looked fairly soild in the centre of defence & i think he should continue there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson 2 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Early days I know, but Kirk has been our best player so far IMO. Has started the season well and may get better and better with a run in his proper position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joop10 0 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 i'd like broadfoot because he had done a job for us at center back , but walter won't drop weir as he's captain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartm 7 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 i'd like broadfoot because he had done a job for us at center back , but walter won't drop weir as he's captain. I agree. Its a unfair to be honest, as Broadfoot will lose less goals than Weir will, but again Walter's jobs for the boys comes out again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 54,488 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Amazing on how opinons have changed .. people now saying Broadfoot should play. Thats simply because of a lack of options. Weir. 38, slow and past it Dailly. 35, slow and past it Webster. Body of a 38 year old, slow and past it. Broadfoot is probably the best of a bad bunch. And I don't mean that as a compliment.

DecoLally 0 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Broadfoot's looked good in CB although id still bring in a new CB. Davie Weir i wouldn't play, as hes been looking slow and outa batteries! Shagger or Thomo for Captain in Fergies absence Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polo 1,435 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Weir is past it. He's been dreadful the last few times he's played. He also makes us sit too far back to make up for his lack of pace. I would definitely have Broadfoot in there instead. But Weir's captain and will be starting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewbacca 8 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Broadfoot has done well so far in centre back, I'd let him continue if I were the boss; Walter often disagrees with me however Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregW 0 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I dont trust Broadfoot, he's a good back up but he should remain on the bench. I would play Davie, he had an amazing season last year and I think he just needs a few games under him. But i'm not saying Weir is perfect, far from it, and I would like to see a new CB before the end of the transfer window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricksen_da_best 2,034 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 ALWAYS said Broadfoot had the potential, and was one of our better players toward the end of the season. Always gives it his all, And at CB he could shine. Continue the Big man at Cb. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearer 124 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I would rather see Broadfoot but only if he stops backing off so much, I feel that he invites players to run at him instead of closing down the space. He is a better player than he is given credit for but I still dont think that he is the long term answer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam 0 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 funny how everyone says now....they wernt saying this before the Falkirk game last week.... I have always said....always that he has the potential when he puts the work in to be good for us...he will be the most improved player of the year this year.....the papac award lol he should always start before weir....Weir has lost it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del 667 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I want to see Broadfoot play! A lot of the critism he got last year was shocking...he didnt ask to play RB he was doing what he was told by Smith. He is never a right back and if you had to put someone like Weir or Cuellar at RB i think they would have struggled to get up and down the park the way broadfoot did! He deserves his chance at CB and so far he has done very well! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a better player than he is given credit for but I still dont think that he is the long term answer. Thats basic defending mate! Broadfoot is quite slow so has to stand off him... If he got tight on the player, if the player gets past him Broadfoot wouldnt catch him. So he stands off and waits on the striker to move then tackles him! Hes a good defender and reads the game well! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuBee85 0 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 got to be broadfoot. av never really liked him but youv seen the two of them make the odd clumsy stupit mistake, broadfoot the maist but at least hes got youth on his side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Andypendek Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Make or break for big Kirk. If he gets a run and gets some confidence, I think he'll be a useful enough player for the next 3-4 years, in the mould of a Davie McPherson - not brilliant but effective, while making occassional howlers. If he screws up the fans will crucify him, if he's dropped and a new CB comes in I wonder how he'll get back into the side? If that's not an incentive to concentrate I don't know what is. Good luck big man! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
