It doesn’t matter what player we would have in there. Right now tactically we are a mess. Against Dundee we basically had Lundstram dropping do get the ball off Goldson or Souttar. Then no midfield. Then Cantwell, Lawrence, Roofe, Sima & Silva standing in a line across their box.
Yip.
I agree, but I’d be more comfortable with Sterling in there to try stop the ease teams are countering on us.
Andrex though, none of that tracing paper shite.
I get that mate.
Thumbs crossed
100% we haven’t any control of the middle of the park. We are going long which is fine, but when we don’t win that second ball then we have Lundstram alone getting dragged all over the place. Sterling in there adds more legs, defensive ability and power. I wouldn’t even be against a 3 of Sterling Lunny and Diomande.
Was after the game I think.
Is it good man management to have a pop at Dujon Sterling's frustrated comments when he's one of the very few players actually putting in a shift right now? Serious errors of judgement here I fear.
I don’t know what else you expect him to do with what he’s got at his disposal? Promote some of the young boys up to the first team whether they are ready or not? I think it’s unfair to lay the blame on PC when none of these guys are his players other than the few brought in at the turn of the year. He can’t do it for them, it looks to be a combination of things…too many injuries, players who aren’t good enough, such as Dessers Wright and other guy's who buckle under the pressure of trying to win a bum league. That’s it!
Move people that always threaten the opposition to positions that they can actually threaten.
Yeah - great idea. The gaffer throws the squad under a bus and we have a end of season total collapse.
He also referenced his injury record though, didn't he? Why is that relevant?
No one is asking for the squad to be thrown under a bus. Don't feed the fans bullshit is all we're asking.
No idea why you think the manager has two choices here (praise versus reprimand). I'm sure he's perfectly capable of giving nuanced answers that address the recent performances without upsetting players.
Other than an injury update they are pointless
I think he meant in terms of speaking to the media in times of pressureInexperience - He's 24
Inexperience - He's 24
This is reading like paphosranger telling everyone to be quiet and stop getting worked up about a subject and then posting more than anyone on the thread.
More confidence in these players than I have
It means everything especially if you beat those bastards in the Final.
They are absolutely pointless.
He's one of our few midfielders who can pick up the ball and pass through the lines, making intelligent balls.
It frustrated me too a bit mate but I can see why he’s done it. He can’t have any mixed messages or animosity breeding in the camp headlines in the press. He needs to show unity but that doesn’t stop me from agreeing with Dujon’s take on this.
What has he said about Raskin?
I'd be willing to bet he had media training when he was in England.
Fans of all clubs are fed bullshit by their manager - have you not noticed?
What if the bulk of the players agree with Dujon and not that “the structure was good” ?
Then you have a split dressing room. All the manager can do is try to minimise the effect of that split. The squad and season are too far gone
