His partnership with McMillan is excellent. Mc’s runs are well timed either as a decoy or an overlapper. And wee Stevie’s delivery is regularly accurate. However I am concerned at the lack of movement and support for them in and around the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We appear to be quite static, especially not picking up opposing players still say we need an aggressive ball wining midfield player we have enough quality and depth in this squad to win this league bit more confidence and composure when playing , and less hoof ball up the park onwards and upwards .

Dependent on Tiffoney getting his full fitness back, methinks. I agree the middle of the attack has a bit to go. I do tho' think McKinnon is the one player who's movement and positioning is of decent quality. Turner on occasions likewise but not often enough for my liking. And of course the one player who's supposed to play off the striker, Smith, has been to be kind, ineffective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking to play football rather than hoofball every time he got it at his feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topcat Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 But quiet a lot of the time the ball was not getting released quickly enough to Lawless and he had to deal with a few hospital balls. If he gets the ball to his feet earlier he could have been and even better threat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys the size of Lawless, that type of player, shouldn't be scrambling about trying to win headers or deal with high bouncy balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 Good to see us scoring two goals from set pieces at Hamilton, in view of the criticisms that have been pouring in over our inability to defend them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
