Darthter 542 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Reports on the RFC website saying that McCulloch could be due for a return shortly. If that is the case, would it be prudent to have him back in the center of defense, rather than up top. A the moment Andy Little is doing a fine job of scoring, but the defense is a complete shambles....Could big Jig bring a bit of organisation to that area, and show a bit of leadership from the back??? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuznetsov 0 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 35 year old mcculloch and 33 year old cribari at the heart of our defence in this bright new era. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whosthedado 1,522 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 No he;ll play him up front and put our "best right winger" in Andy Little on the right!!! Nah to be serious for a minute we have lost stupid goals like we lost last night even when McCulloch has been in the team so I don't think it would make a great deal of difference. Kuznetsov I don't think it matters what age they are to be honest. If our bright new era includes Mr Hegarty at centre back then we have serious problems 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If our bright new era includes Mr Hegarty at centre back then we have serious problems oh i think it does mate. we have or rather had a chance to blood players into positions for our future. guys like alexander, mcculloch and cribari will need replaced meaning more change to an already disjointed team. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,290 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Matter of fact, after Hutton's no-show again, I'd play him in the holding midfield role away from home. For he offers factual protection to the defenders and at set-pieces. And while I see people start moaning again, I don't view football as something utterly static. People should get a certain place on the field from the off, but that shall not stop them from switching places once opportunity arises, like Little dropping off to the right for a time and McCulloch becoming another striker. What became obvious last night was the fact that the team lacks cohesion at times and lacks a leader with authority on the park. At times we were all over the place, Little looking for the ball on the half-way line and no-one was actually up front. It all made Stirling look better than they are, but as I said elsewhere, this Rangers team is a long way from being even a half-finished article ... and hence my criticism knows its bounds. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumshie RFC 0 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Play McCulloch and Hegarty in the centre of defence. Want to see Andy Little continue up front instead of being shunted out on the right and Cribari is just a walking disaster. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Deary me....I thought it was only McCoist who could create McCulloch in defence threads by playing him there. Big Jig is a striker, he always has been and always will be. Play him there only. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GovanAllan 0 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Actually don't have a problem with Jig in defence, he can at least follow the flight of the ball and attack it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Jig is a striker, he always has been and always will be. Play him there only. I agree up front is his best position but he must play at centre half until the end of the season as a stop gap unless someone from the reserves can make the step up. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
