DMAA 3,603 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Surprised at some comments. I think we are a better team today. Walter’s abilities played a large part in our success at that time. Naismith and Jelavic go straight into our starting lineup today imo, I wouldn’t swap anyone else. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted February 9, 2021 Author Share Posted February 9, 2021 Weir, Naismith and Jelavic . Naismith would be absolutely perfect in our team right now, he is an upgrade to Arfield. Despite my dislike for him in the past he was still a good player. Jelavic all round game and attitide pips Morelos and Weir was an outstanding professional and you need him. Bar those 3 Im not taking anyone else. Kent v Weiss is interesting - both world beaters on their day. Kent has done is more for me though, Weiss was great when he wanted to be. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All goalscorers. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bluedell 5,329 Posted February 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 9, 2021 Naismith walks into the team. The question of Weir is an interesting one. He played well in a back four that contained Papac. Did Weir have the speed to allow our full backs to bomb up the park as much as they do? I don't think Gerrard picks Weir because of that. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted February 9, 2021 Author Share Posted February 9, 2021 There is absolutely no doubt Stevie G has gotten 20-30% extra out of the current squad - he has installed the hunger he had as a player. Current team is similar to the 92-93 Famous side with no real individuals - just a pure well oiled machine. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil's advocaat 1,275 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Jelavic was outstanding for us, similar to Morelos, and Cousin on occasion, in that on his game he was unplayable. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
compo 6,079 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Today's team is far better but we need to have a plan to replace McGregor and Davis both good servants and done an excellent job but no one goes on forever 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cousin - yes unplayable when he wanted to be. I remember that goal he scored at Parkhead and ran straight to Super Ally who had told Walter to play him. He was also outstanding against Barca at Ibrox. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never understood the credit afforded to Weiss. He certainly had some skill but he was also inconsistent and, as you rightly say, prone to bouts of laziness. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
