Fuck me where do u start , a win is a win but that performance tonight was horrific, no sugar coating the situation , something is wrong , very wrong , tippy tapppy back again with aveangance , need to now get a grip pick our best team and stick with it , to many players just don’t look interested
Why ??
 
gap between defence to front is too big

starting position for 7 of our players is too high

they crowd each other out and have no space to move into coz another bloke already standing still in it.

back three cant make clear pass forward so tippy happy across back line waiting for middle field to come deep and make space for triangles

opposition dont lose energy coz they just shuffle 10 yards left and right

then we just punt ball high towards frimpong and taylor

who both struggle to pass ball well

our midfield is disfunctional

we do all the running without creating space

opps just stand still cause the channels aren't being worked cause every channel already has a bloke in it

its like a long ball tactic without target men or high passes to dangerous areas

bizarre tactics

we have no midfielders picking ball up inside our own half running at players and passing when opps press them

its just dull predictable static guff

no midfield really

despite having 5 recognised central midfielders on park

but hardly ever come into our half to start the attack

A never seen the game, but if that is true....we need to get it sorted ASAP
 
Only one question from me:
Does Lennon and Kennedy apart from not having The Sound Tactical Prowess for Europe, do they have the Dressing Room?
They are both completely out of their depth but there are some fans on this site that’ll slaughter you for having such an opinion.
Our defence are a bomb-scare, our midfield utterly pedestrian and Lennon has no idea how to shape an attacking forward line.
The huns are much more mobile and structured and I fear for us next month
 
When we had Rogic fit and playing regularly, he would at least commit players and create a bit of space around him for others to work in.

When we had Griff up top, he would play off the shoulder and take defenders away from the centre of the park.

Wee Jeremie (and periodically Ajer) are the only players who are comfortable taking the ball for a wee walk and change the shape of the opposition.

Scott Brown can't influence games now, he isn't doing anything horrendously wrong, but he can't contribute to the game in the way that we need a player in that position to contribute.

There's a woeful lack of movement in the final third. As TET previously mentioned, it's not that difficult to defend when everything is played in front of you or either side of you. There are no runners front and back post when we put a decent ball into the box and there's a noticeable lack of inspiration (beyond wee Jeremie's pace and enthusiasm)

Eddy looks like he's in the Twilight Zone and Corpus can play one-touch, but likes to take a few touches and play a worldie (which doesn't pay dividends).

Slow, monotonous and pretty predictable. I don't rate the huns, but they play fast and direct and run decent diagonals. Our boys are playing straight up and down, left and right.

It might be effective in eeking out results, but it's gonna come up short when it really matters.
 
now this dude was world class midfielder

but he is great example of what number 10 worth salt should be doing

he picks ball up in his own half and moves forward, has eye for pass but can dribble and tackle and fully aware of surroundings

plays one twos with his midfield and gets into forward spaces through fast passing team work.

the number 10 must be able to play in his own half as well as strike ball well

we dont have a midfield

they all playing waiting game up in deep lying forward positions

all just static
even wee Bertie auld played from own half to their box

Murdock was more deep

mcstay picked ball up I our half but got forward through triangles

our midfield dont play midfield

if you watch Brazil 70 team with best long range passers in game they were never more that 15 yards from 2 options

we very rarely have a player within 20 yards of guy on ball

Sucks to watch and its also very ineffective against decent side

anyway here a wee collection of imo Germanies man who made beckenbauer look even better

I wish we had someone who could do what he could do.
