partickthedog Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 What a strange game. We were totally dominant, scored a great team combination goal and looked generally excellent, but Dunfermline suddenly scored 3 fairly easy goals.

westertonjagfan Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 Defence is the dictionary definition of 'mince' at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partickthedog Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 Difficult to tell from far end but defence seemed posted missing. No cover for Jamie who appeared to have no chance with any of the goals. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fearchar Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 While the defence seems too slow to get back, it doesn't help when, at the other end, everyone seems to think they must deliver the ball to Graham's head. As for midfield, keep Bannigan pivoting to get his kicking foot on the ball and you've snuffed out his passing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muscat Jag Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 ******* hell, we were doing great until they equalised against the run of play. Then the roof caved in. No idea if they're 3rd was over the line, I'll bet the same applies to Madden who couldn't wait to look clever when the Dunfermline hands went up. He may well be right, not much complaint from our defence. The way we've been opened up from the 30th min has been a bit of a reality check.

Best 3 midfielders in the league, you’re having a laugh. Not supporting the attack and not protecting the defence. Right side of defence far too slow, we can’t expect a 36 year old to act as a wingback without a midfielder providing some defence cover if the opposition break. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You primarily have foster, oware, Sneddon and sadly even bell to be responsible for being switched off at the back. I really did not get the great hop hurrah by a number of fans to resign Sneddon as he is distinctly average at best ironically we should have been 3-0 up in first 15 minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thistle88 Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 Need Big Brownlie fit ASAP. Oware is finished. Tiffoney doesn’t look 100% yet, midfield is very slow aswell, worrying performance to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironfist Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 Sadly hasn’t worked out for oware. Would rather see senna play if it comes to that. But preferably a new centre half or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougie247 Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 the defence was shocking the amount of space they were giving them was atrocious.. we did look good going forward but they need to sometimes go for goal instead of going for a cross.. tons of opportunity's wasted on slack passing out to the wing or overlaps.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thistle88 Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 Definitely lacking a bit of pace at the back. I’d be playing McKenna at CB before O’ware to be perfectly honest.. I’ve always thought he’s fairly reliable when he plays(McKenna) i mean. Think it was even more worrying how bad our midfield was in the lead up to their goals.

lady-isobel-barnett Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 Thought Foster was very good going forward and unlike a couple of others not reluctant to use his weaker foot. Alas Foster going forward is all very well if the defence is covered. Those in the last line in defence didn't exactly cover themselves in glory but they received very little assistance from midfield. Was a totally strange game and, judging by the lack of crunching tackles, maybe even played as a semi friendly. Bobby Madden, bless him, did his best to try and make the game look like it was being played more aggressively. Murray looks the most match fit and Turner, tho' he didn't have a great game, looks like he'll be an important player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
