Popular Post Dragosani 69 Posted October 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 1, 2023 Got to say outside of Celtic we should really play with two forwards. Teams, will pack the defence and crowd, that one guy out. If we insist on one forward he needs to be the complete package. Hold it, turn it, strike it he needs to and be supported with two fast/strong wingers/inside forwards. I'm getting the feeling that the players are either not understanding what Beale wants, or they are(and following his plan, to the letter) and the rest of Scottish football can see it a mile coming. Now a good coach/manager, will know when that happens, it's time to react and change/try something new. If they can't and just hope, that some how plan "A" will work, they are in the wrong job 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 10,602 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Are people forgetting that we actually play with three forwards? Personnel is not the (main) issue, it's how they're deployed and used. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personnel is not the (main) issue, it's how they're deployed and used. when you say personnel is not the issue, do you think we have a strong enough squad to win the league? I think Butland has been a brilliant signing, Cantwell too, but so far the others haven't produced enough for me and I'm concerned they are poorer than the players they've replaced. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the main issue. I don't think they're bad players, but the way they're used just doesn't make the most of them - I keep saying Lammers is wasted as a #10. Whether that's enough to win the league, I don't know. I was just responding to those saying we need to get away from one up top, when we've not played one up top for ages - and in fact, we've played with three forwards quite often. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malangsob 1,264 Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 I think Dessers should definitely be given the benefit of doubt. See what the interim guys can do and then the next manager. We paid a lot of mullah for this guy...there has to be a way. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously has something about him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever possibilities there are, he has to move his arse a bit quicker. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't coach speed. That's why Hagi's ass is down in Spain. I think it's been more about his touch and final product. Both of which have been heavy, off. I mean, let's face it, that dude ain't ever been 'fast' but has managed to score in the past. I think a new staff, maybe some new angles and he will hit a stretch. He is due. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
