  1. I don't disagree. I do think the game is becoming saturated with teams that play positional play a la Guardiola. There will always be a dominant style; that's happened for over a century. However, we have seen a reaction against that style with the geggenpressing style and now the relationism of Fluminense's Diniz and Malmo's Rydstrom. It will take a while for the latter style to spread.
  2. An experienced Dutch assistant manager/coach. I don't know much about him. Anyone's better than Alex Rae!
  3. I think you've got it the wrong way around. Teams specialise now. Unless you have the best players, adapting to every team won't work. You can't tell me a team that dips in and out of a style, part-time, is going to beat a team that is well-drilled in one style?
  4. We're being linked with coach Andries Ulderink, with Alex Rae's contract expiring at the end of the season.
  5. We've been saying that for the past 10 years.
  6. After 58 games, at last we come to the final game of the season. BD takes a strong lead into the final game. Could we be in line for a Helicopter Saturday? Celtic vs Rangers As it is a Cup game, I take the score AET.
  7. Was it not revealed that Lovelace's contract runs for another year? I might have made it up.
  8. That'll never catch on - he's not even injured!
  9. 12 G+A in 35 games for a 19-year-old? Not bad at all. He's only costing £400k. Actually, looking at the twitter comments, there are a few calling our league Mickey Mouse!
  10. The stats give it to Cantwell, with McCausland a close second.
  11. What are your thoughts, folks?
  12. I don't disagree. Except for Yilmaz: we should build the team around him.
  13. Possibly, but they still should have been involved in the training; that's negligence.
  14. The injury record is awful, but it's not Clement's fault. He stated he knows the cause, so hopefully it will get fixed.
  15. I am frustrated as to why Fraser (and other youngsters, I suppose) hasn't been given more minutes in a problem position, but Clement explained that when he said our youngsters hadn't been training with the first team properly, which is fair enough; they can't play when they're not up to speed with the style of play. That goes back to Beale, GvB and SG.
  16. I find the criticism of Clement's team selection baffling. I mean, have you not seen our injury list?
  17. You know what the solution is, don't you? A DoF. Our defensive issues have come on over the last month or two. Up until then we we had the best defense. The problems are a combination of players out of form (Barisic, Goldson, Tavernier), injuries (Balogun, Goldson, Yilmaz, SOUTTAR - And to those in front) and poor team pressing (that won't improve until PC gets them for a pre-season, IMO).
  18. I thought I had given myself an outside shot with 3 points today, but I'm too far back. It's between BD and Yorkie, but the former has a significant lead going into the final game.
  19. We go into the final game with two with a chance of winning it all. Correct Result (1 pt): Lenny, Devil, Franc and Mal. Correct Number of Rangers Goals (1pt): Rousseau, DJ, FA, MacK and Ted. FGS (2 pts): Rousseau. Correct Score (3 pts): - Latest Standings:
  20. Clement: 'There will be changes, we need changes. I think we are at the end of a cycle as a club, we need to change some thing and I want to end this cycle with a really big moment next Saturday at Hampden.'
