Amac9 2,060 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 With an attacking formation (4-4-2 or 4-3-3) and dropped points I don't think I would have been so pissed off. But the fact Walter played for the draw was appaling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amac9 2,060 Posted January 24, 2009 Author Share Posted January 24, 2009 Edu has to be given a chance once he's back from injury. Barry Ferguson is becoming a passenger in almost every game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 53,792 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 It doesn't matter if it's a 4-3-3 or 4-5-1, Boyd can't play upfront on his own. As for as the Walter bashing it seems that the players are getting off a bit lightly here too. Yes Walter set up for a draw, but the players also looked happy enough to settle for that. No passion, no desire, no decent tempo.......they looked like they weren't bothered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShootSpeedKillLight 0 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I dont see why we dont do that in every single domestic game, home or away Because Smith is too scared. I'm not Boyd's biggest fan but I wouldn't mind seeing him up front with Naismith and Fleck either side, as mentioned above. Just as long as Miller doesn't play.

Made a number of good runs forward, even if the shots he produced weren't so great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would? 4 - 3 - 3 As far as i remember, that involves 3 strikers, meaning we'd have Naismith, Novo, Miller, Fleck beside him, further up the pitch with him. Compared to 4 - 5- 1 where everyone is behind him and the only striker help he got was Novo for the last 20 minutes today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amac9 2,060 Posted January 24, 2009 Author Share Posted January 24, 2009 Boyd cannot play in a 4-5-1, it's not his game. But saying that I would rather have Kris Boyd up there thatn Kenny Miller. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No passion, no desire, no decent tempo.......they looked like they weren't bothered. That's a fair point. Davis did look like he was desperate to get the ball & run on with it in the latter stages, but too little too late. Another thing I like about Bougherra is he can actually play the game, unlike Wier & Broadfoot. Wier either just lumps the ball 30-40 yards away to get shot of the ball or he gets caught in possesion. Broadfoot is not bad when he gets near the by-line, but how often is he getting that far up front these days? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compared to 4 - 5- 1 where everyone is behind him and the only striker help he got was Novo for the last 20 minutes today. Just because the wide players are 15 yards furthur up the park it doesn't mean Boyd could just neglect what is required of a central striker in that system. He would still be expected to drop into "the hole" to pick up the ball and create space for midfield runners, hold players off with his back to goal, work the channels and generally try to rough up the opposition defence. He isn't capable of playing as the focal point on his own like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
