  1. I like two up front, but our support structure doesn't facilitate this. We're not positioned correctly, players aren't covering and don't press cohesively etc. I think we can get the same effect if we play a 4-3-3, but again, the same problems (manager is not good enough) mean we'll not utilise it properly. At the moment he needs to just play what he knows.
  2. His track record suggests he makes very good starts, then fades away; he did the same at West Brom and Reading, I think?
  3. Hopefully we see some sort of movement. We could all do with a pick-up. 2nd looks too much now.
  4. I agree with that. It was lost at 2-0 for me too. Brutal.
  5. Oh yes we are! Come back to me when you've cooled down and had time to reflect. I'm not saying we're good -- far from it! -- merely that this team is better than what they've shown today; the last Old Firm game was a better performance. Is it ultimately good enough? No.
  6. No doubt about it.
  7. Yes, we are. It's easy to get caught up in that performance -- the worst I've seen -- but we were better in the last game against them; we still lost, and I don't see Murty improving us any more. We need better players, and a proper manager.
  8. A wee bit of fight, and hunger is the bare minimum. That was tactically inept too. That was the worst performance against them.
  9. That wasn't even a competition. Brutal. We're better than that, though. In the last game we were much better.
  10. I've got it on mute. I can't take it.
  11. I can't help watch it. I don't know why? I've got it on mute, though.
  12. Morelos still can't score. He does the right thing in taking a touch, then hits in straight to Gordon who's on his arse! What is it with these games...
  13. Ach... he's only 19, he's had no protection today, and he's probably better in midfield. He shouldn't be deemed a superstar after one good game, and he shouldn't be deemed a dud after one bad game.
  14. Yeah, that'll do... Schalke - Dortmund or Man Utd - West Brom?
  15. That McGregor smiling and laughing as he walks off and on the pitch... You wouldn't get tired of punching that.
  16. Yes, these players are better than this -- I have to believe that...
  17. It's soul destroying...
  18. 4-2-3-1 with Windass on. At least he has the bollocks to change it when it's clearly not working. I'm not convinced it'll work, though.
  19. I'm considering turning it over; it's just...
  20. Actually, we had a better set-up then!
  21. The defence is not dealing with (a) balls on the ground and the movement, nor (b) are they dealing with the physical battle. Add to that the midfield letting them pass through them, then just jogging back! Too easy. It's not zonal or Man-marking.
  22. We've not got an out-ball; Murphy, Morelos and Candeias are not making themselves available.
  23. If we're blocking off the centre and forcing them wide, then I think I'd prefer Alves instead of McCrorie; he's just better in the air, and at clearing things.
  24. McCrorie is not quite dealing with Dembele.
