ATLIS Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Kelly a done deal apparently. Glad it's not a loan at least. We're being linked with Kelty as well, I'd take Shaughnessy if St Mirren are letting him go. He's better than Obileye/Kelly/Cancar/Bitsindou at CB 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just said exactly this but I do think in Boyes, Fitzwater and Obileye we have 3 pretty good options already. 4 decent centre backs probably unnecessary as much as I like Shaughnessy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah true, Boyes coming back has been under the radar a bit. Think we possibly need one more, but we could end up loaning someone in. Last night must've been a bit of an eye opener for Martindale. You'd think though that a Shaugnessy/Fitzwater pairing would be more than good enough for a top 6 defence especially with Nicky at the side and the from Montano has been in. Even then with Penrice to come back too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiviLion Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 3 year deal for Kelly apparently. Think he'll do well but it's very David Martindale to sign a CM when we're all waiting on a CB and a winger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, we're paying a 'nominal' fee and he's only likely to be rotation this season so won't be relying on him. He's got a year to settle in then step into the first team for the 23/24 season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoobahabba Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 I hope he's good. Sad to see Salford City (where Kelly was on loan last season) have signed Odin Bailey on a two year deal. That would have been ideal for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Be interesting to see how Livi use him, as I know you're ball deep in stats based recruitment. Seems to me like you'd want him as the attacking midfielder in a 3, but I don't know how Livingston are setting up this season to know where he'd fit. Looks ~average but hes still young and finding his role. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martindale has been using a weird christmas tree formation, 4321 - having two AMs in behind Nouble up front although you'd imagine we go back to the usual 4231 with wingers and Pittman in the AM role when we've got Anderson back fit. It looks likely he's there as Pittman succession/rotation 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Scotty to bits but would say a bit more competition for his spot would benefit the team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Firm prospects are very rarely any much better than anyone else’s prospects. They just happen to get more hype. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 I'm a luddite with social media so these videos probably get tweeted out or something and everyone already knows about them. In case anyone isn't aware, though, the Livi Youtube channel uploads short match previews and reviews with Martindale for every match. They provide good insight.

Durnford Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 I'd be particularly interested if he was good at set pieces; particularly corners. Kelly was very poor with the corners on Wednesday and Shinnie also seems to have lost his touch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye if only we had 4 or 5 players well over 6ft to aim the ball into a particular area for them all to get in there and attack it. Seriously how can a set piece taker not practice like feck at hitting balls into the box, and at least hit it over the head of the first defender at corners, and not overhit it to the opposite corner flag. Players should know exactly where it's going and with the height we have in our team now we should have a very good chance of getting a head on the ball, Ayo, Fitzwater, Bahamboula, Guthrie, Nouble, yet we waste just about every set piece we have. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
