Acemcl 0 Posted September 15, 2013 Author Share Posted September 15, 2013 I think people have looked at my post and and saw the Jig comment without looking at the wider points in the post ie players out of position. Jig should start, my point was he shouldn't start at CH. strikers are form players, when they're hot you play them ergo Jig should start where he is best utilised. Just as McAusland, or Foster should start at RB as that is their slot, not pushing a CH into that position. We have over 30 players, is there ANY reason to play anyone in a position they were bought for? The manager has a formation & style he wants to play, surely you play the players that best fill a particular role. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ranger_syntax 4,422 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 The manager has a formation & style he wants to play, surely you play the players that best fill a particular role. Why assume that McCoist thinks any differently? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumshie RFC 0 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Would rather McCulloch played at centre back and if he's gettin goals from that position we should all be delighted. Thought Faure had a poor game yesterday and was disappointed to see McAusland out of the team who has been playing well. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthter 542 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Thought Faure had a poor game yesterday Faure received a lot of criticism last season when playing at RB, but has received praise when playing at CH (his proper position) The man is not a RB and should only play there in emergencies - not when your recently signed RB is sitting on the bench. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy steel 0 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I spent the whole game nudging my son & saying 'no very impressed with Foster at right back'. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Ally 0 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 He moved 2 players out of 4 defenders either out of position or out of the team in order to accommodate jig. Whether you dislike the term or not, it IS shoe-horsing. As the person to first mention shoe-horinng I take offense at being called lazy, childish or immature. What is immature is having to try to turn the debate away from your inaccurate statement that because jig scored a hat trick it automatically meant that he wasn't shoe-horned, and suggesting I at humble pie. Your argument was exposed as inaccurate and you have resorted to name-calling in order to defend your own position. It reeks of hypocrisy when you began others for name-calling. I respect much of your posting but you are not only way off target on this one but also coming across as being arrogant too. Each to their own I suppose. You may have been the first to mention it on this thread but it's been used on our fans websites for about 18months at least. Like the other example I used people latch on to these derisive terms as a fashionable way to bash payers they don't like. It's is far easier and lazier to type jig was shoehorned in than to discuss the fact that the manager sees him as his no. 1 or 2 first choice centre back. Whether the manager is correct to hold this view from a footballing pov is up for debate. But I'm sorry I have no time for the view that the manager selects McCulloch for some sort of emotional or non-footballing reason. I will give the manager the respect that he picks what he believe is the best team for the game. Yes he will get it wrong but he makes his choices based on his knowledge of football and not because he is desperate to shoehorn best bud Jig into his starting line up. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RB!!!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
