A few goodies I got v Killie.
Gerry Mac "what a pass by MacGregor" WGS " It was made by the brilliant run from Taylor " .Good to hear wee Taylor getting such praise from a very good tactician.
Thought that we looked more solid defensively because Hazzard was a "big" calm presence, big Kris rendered the oppositions diagonal ball to our right back area useless and Duff and Julie could trust their fullbacks and hold their central position. The midfield felt as if it had more dig with Soro and Turnbull and killie only made one set piece chance. I don't think Eddies lost form so much as he is out of his most effective position ( the old inside right berth ). Pre season I was hoping for a left sided centre back ( I really thought we'd go for McKenna ) and a big rumble them up striker like Dykes or Cosgrove for Eddie to feed off. From Sundays game I would have subbed Frimpong with Connell if HE had been on the bench ( I think he and Harper should be next to be fed into the team ). For the first time in a while I did not feel we would lose a goal because we eliminated the diagonal counter attack option with big Kris's height and athleticism. Over all the only thing I'd change is having Eddie slightly behind the striker Ajeti ?? ( If he cuts out the theatrics ) and if you wonder about my enthusiasm for Connell watch some of his Republic highlights where he absolutely f*cking lasers balls into the box from 35/40 yards out
