Team for Sunday

Recommended Posts

My team for Sunday's match would be...

 

--------------------Mcgregor

 

Whittaker-------Boogy------Weir------Papac

 

------Davis--------Mendes----Thomson

 

Novo--------------------------------Beasley

 

-------------------Lafferty

 

But i'm not sure about RB, Broadfoot at septic park would be too much of a liabillity, can we trust Whittaker's temperment, Dailly for his experience maybe or will his lack of pace cost us?

 

Thoughts?

Not sure I would go with Lafferty - if fit then why not, he wouldn't do worse than any of our other strikers as the lone front man.

 

The thing about our squad now is that :

 

1. WS strengthened the strikeforce first when other areas needed strengthened before it.

2. Now that he has strengthened the midfield the strikeforce is the one area that is lacking a different type of player.

 

I still feel that we spent 2 mill on Miller that wasn't needed when we had a VERY similar player in Novo there with the exception Novo is a better finisher

 

That 2 mill could have been spent on a forward who can lead the line well when we play one up top.

 

The way I see it is we have the strikers there to give us 2 up front and also to rotate them, but we don't have a striker to play up front alone (Cousin can, but I doubt he will play for us again). Lafferty could be that player but hasnt had the chance and I am not convinced away to THEM would be the appropriate time to go for it.

 

1. Boyd or Velicka

2. Novo or JCD or Miller

 

You can take either striker from 1 and pair with a striker from 2 and it has the potential to work.

 

But when I look at all 5 of them I don't see ANY who I would really like to see playing the lone striker role (JCD would be my choice IF he could last a game !).

 

We should have saved the money from Miller and used it on either a CB or a DIFFERENT TYPE of striker (I am not having a go at KM, but more at WS for purchasing someone who I just don't think we needed, regardless of (in)ability)

Entirely the point of my OF post.

 

It's all very well harping on about 4-5-1 but we lack the key player to make it work.

As it stands possibly we don't. However, I think Lafferty will become that player.

 

He seems to have a decent touch, is strong, pacey and can score goals. He can lead the line given the proper support from wider areas (ie Novo and Beasley).

Yup, i really think Lafferty is good enough to play that role for us now and can improve to become an even better centre forward for us.

 

I still think that RB is going to be a really important position for us in this game though, is Broadfoot up to it - Macdonald made him look clumsy at times in the last match, hopefully he can learn and improve but should he start? Could Whittaker keep his cool and avoid picking up a silly bookings?

So it's a cert that Walter will keep in left midfield. :brick:
