The 1985 Free kick specialist claims we are weaker with our replacements for
Benkovic - A loanee who was not a regular by any means last season.
Tierney - Injury issues restricted his performances on the park .. Actual replacement still to be established
Lustig - Brittle as a box of weetabix perfectly illustrated in our first Ibrox visit last season... Elhamed looks on early showings an athletic upgrade.
Boyata - head was elsewhere and wandering off the park v tribute act at Celtic Park was the end of the line .. Julien looks an able replacement
I'd have thought the Gourock sage might just have waited for the end of the transfer window before passing judgement unless of course he's spent too long down south and missed the fact we still have the cash and the opportunity to sign players.
The jury may be currently out on Boli but overall if we assume he will have genuine competition for the left side, include Bittons defensive performances then consider Ajers showings centrally and on the right side the potential is there for a sound defensive group as the season unfolds if we secure two more solid defenders.
Overall given the reasons above I disagree with another ex player in the pocket of his paymasters.
