der Berliner 3,745 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I just wonder where the guy on the far right come from, his feet are about a yard over the ground ... As for Ferguson, head-start or not, he's got two hands on Goldson and whether he uses them to hold him down or get some extra height doesn't exactly matter. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is always lots of pushing and shoving at corners, sometimes it is picked up by referees and at other times it is not. Unfortunately, in this case it was either not spotted by the referee or else he believed Ferguson made a clean jump. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I would need to see it again but when I initially saw it I also felt McGregor had to share in the responsibility of that goal. It was inside the 6 yard box and was between middle to back of the goalmouth - that should be his area to command. He's always been a goal-line keeper, but to me he should have been clearing everything out at that corner. Very harsh on a guy who has been one of, if not the, best performer for us this season. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,677 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Looking back on yesterday’s game I believe it was another example of where we should be playing 2 up front in domestic games where we’re dominating possession & the other team parks the bus. I’d have played 3-5-2 with either Grezda or Arfield alongside Sadiq up front. Dont get me wrong I wouldn’t play 3-5-2 in Europe or against Celtic but I think there are definitely games think it would suit like yesterday. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a good delivery into a very crowded part of the area and therefore I suspect McGregor might have had a problem trying to go for the ball. A more dominant goalkeeper might have come, flattening players on the way but McGregor is not that sort of keeper. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,569 Posted October 30, 2018 Author Share Posted October 30, 2018 It was a fantastic cross and we could only deliver one ourselves out of around ten corners when Coulibaly missed a sitter. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it was the quality of delivery that made up about 70% of the goal .....(same with the last minute Motherwell),...very difficult to defend. Some are saying McGregor should have come for it but to me, there is too much traffic for him to be able to get to a fairly fast whipped delivery. Bit cruel saying the Coulibally miss was a sitter. A good contact and it's probably a goal but reaction time is very short once ball passes players in front of him and it seems to arrive at an awkward height ((just below knee) and he couldn't readjust fast enough. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,569 Posted October 30, 2018 Author Share Posted October 30, 2018 I think Coulibaly has to anticipate the ball coming to him a bit better than he did. He's really went off the boil lately for whatever reason. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's really went off the boil lately for whatever reason. He has gone off the boil somewhat but at the same time I think we need to keep the lid on our own expectations and ultimately our assessment of players. He had a few decent games before his injury and people were being a bit hyperbolic about how good he was. IMO he was decent, no more, no less. These days form is almost judged on a game by game basis instead of more balanced appraisal over 12/13 games. For example, Katic was being harshly judged on his performance V Hamilton whereas a few weeks ago he was the best CB we have had at the club for years. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
