The Legend Blows Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Can we have a striker please? One that will score goals and not another forward that chips in with a single figure contribution. Olly Shaw worth a punt? (Probably under contract) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Probably under contract) Im not sure we will see another centre forward as such with Watt and Samuel signed up and think it will be more wingers probably. Euan Henderson will definitely be one of those options to replace the likely outgoing duo of Chalmers and Fitzpatrick.

Fawlty Towers Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 I wonder if we play 2 up front next season if it will be Samuel & Henderson with Watt playing a bit deeper but Henderson can also play out so there will be options if we go 4-3-3.

He is under contract for next season but it was strange that he was not in the squad for the St Mirren games (unless he was injured but that was not stated by Wilson pre either match). I think there is a player in there but don't know if it like the Nisbet situation in that he needs to take being let go to realise that he needs to get the finger out.

exiledjag Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Great news about the signings of Euan Henderson and Oisin Smyth. Welcome to the iconic Partick Thistle Football Club. Wishing you every success. These signings give us a much stronger looking squad. Our team is taking shape for example 4-3-3 formation Clarke McPherson/O'Reilly/Loughrey/ Reading Smyth/Robust Central Midfielder (Osman with pace?)/Left Sided Midfielder Samuels/Watt (could Watt do a job for us as a midfielder?)/Henderson BENCH Keeper? Logan Left Sided Full Back/Wide Player - like Harry Milne)? Ashcroft (expect he will start season but might finish it on the bench) Robust Central Defender (someone like St Mirren's Gogic) McBeth Crawford Diack Striker (in the mould of Graham, ie, 6 yard box predator) For Robust think Tall, Quick and Strong; by my reckoning we are looking for 5 more players assuming Fitz, Chalmers & Stanway are off.

lady-isobel-barnett Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Always a worry if/when we lose Chalmers & Fitzpatrick that we lose pace as well. The Henderson signing certainly helps offsets that worry. Squad shaping up excellently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Dastardly Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Is it a worry ? Last season most on here were underwhelmed by the transfer activity and we ended up having a great season. With the signings today getting a positive response, should we expect the Jag-factor and a relegation battle ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting things in perspective Smyth is just keeping the status quo and Henderson isn’t a step up on either Fitzpatrick or Chalmers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
