McGhee is a CB and not a very good one. Best I've seen him play was for Scotland U21s, was never impressed by him at Hearts. A year away at an English Premiership team will have done him good though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridge of allan bairn Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 See, I think this formation would also suit Tony Gallacher, so I wonder if we might see something along the lines of:ThomsonMcGhee-Ballatoni-GrantKidd-Taiwo-McKee-Sibbs-GallacherAustin-Loy jees what's happened to us in less than a month? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Kinnear Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 If we changed to 3 I would be tempted to play Muirhead there instead of Grant. He is out injured I think and according to jags fans Ballatoni and Muirhead worked for them. Cannot see PH going for it though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Of course the other bad thing about playing 3 at the back is that we would need to play Harris or Kidd at right wing back and both are fucking shite.Also that team is severely lacking in Myles Hippolyte. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnitedLoon63 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Mind when falkirk fans said Scobbie wouldn't get a game for them....Then they sign fucking McGhee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ka202 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Botti Biabi, any good? Aye, as said before on this thread, raw and a bit mental, I'd like him back though. Direct, was just getting game time and was getting pretty good when he was sold. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finch road Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Another centre half. So that's SIX first team centre backs (Ballatoni, Gasparotto, Grant, McGhee, Muirhead, Watson) and our only two full backs are a 12 year old who looks brutally out of his depth, and a crocked right back who is shit even on the rare occasion that he's healthy.What a fucking disgrace of a club we are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGhee has Scott Crabbe eyes, we await and see if he becomes as much a player as Crabbe... What's Crabbe doing now ?

Also that team is severely lacking in Myles Hippolyte. This for me as well. We have an abundance of CBs, but I'm not convinced our options at wing back are great and it means we don't play with any wingers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senor Bairn Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Did Hippo not play Lwb for Livi at one point? If we were going to play 3-5-2 Id rather have him in at wingback than Gallagher. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All-Star-Par Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 In the game against us I thought the centre backs were badly exposed by a lack of midfield protection, literally two balls played through the heart of the pitch lead to our first two. Not sure adding two new central defenders is entirely what you boys need, surely one energetic centre mid to help Kerr out? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is Luca and Watson are only decent when they have a better defender by their side, neither of them are vocal or have leadership qualities, which is vital in their position which results to them looking like bombscares. Both Luca and Watson have had MOM performances in the past, I doubt it if it was with them as partnership, if they can't defend together, it's gonna look hopeless, not as if it's the first time and why we resigned Watson again, I'll never know 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Set up was poor as well, we played quite a high line against you despite your obvious pace advantage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
