I think we've had far worse 'keepers, some of whom have already been mentioned. He's made some crucial saves at times this season, probably earning us a few points in the process so let's not all just jump on the bandwagon, instead, get behind the guy ffs! You're right, we need somebody behind him, another keeper. He couldn't even deal with a passback across him yesterday without making an arse of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMBairn Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Sorry, possibly might be on the game thread, I had just read this thread and there was only criticism of Fasan. It's generally accepted that McGhee is a decent enough player in the championship who made a mistake. Fasan on the other hand is fucking permenantly terrible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbri Bairn2 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 The relationship between Fasan and Harrison looked particularly bad yesterday. Every time they were involved it was brutal to watch. To me, it all seems to come from a total failure of Fasan to communicate. Harrison might be to blame too, but it looks to me like Fasan doesnt talkI have sat near the front of theSouth Stand right behind the goals for most of the home games this season. I have never heard his voice once. A keeper needs to work with and talk to the defenders to help cohesion but with him not a peep. And as for crosses. A complete waste of 6ft 2in 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 While I don’t think there’s a snowball’s chance in hell of 9 first team replacements arriving in January, I will set aside my disbelief for a moment, and go with the flow that it will happen. For the sake of argument, let’s say they arrive in three groups of three. What would be the individual preferences of which three people would like to see gone from the starting eleven in the first group? For me, it would be a new keeper a right back, and a midfielder Thereafter, it would be two attack and one midfield. Group 3 would be one midfield, two central defence (assuming we are not going to play on the break forever). Of that personal wish list, I think we will do well to get four. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever your belief is is quite frankly irrelevant- there are at least 9 players going to be arriving in January(a number of whom are already signed). For me those 9 should be(and will be)1 GK, 1 LB, 2 CB, 1 LW, 1 RW, 2 CM and 2 ST. Really not sure why you'd have a right back as a priority when we have a perfectly adequate player in that position. The players leaving will be Fasan, Dallison, Robson, Sammut, Irving, Lewis, Haber, Buaben, Russell and Dumbuya.

He is barely passable at RWB but he is not a RB. If the manager wants to go with a flat four across the back he’s going to need to sign one. He’ll need a LB too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t come on here often these days, mostly out of just being fed up with the club, so I forget how every team seems to have at least one spectacular bell end making nonsense itk comments... The remarkable self belief is one thing, but absolute ignorance of football is another (see previous Scott Shepherd comments). The only way you could say “Kidd hadn’t put a foot wrong” is because he’s just too slow to get his feet anywhere in the first place. He looks like he’s running through treacle, and can’t tackle or defend a cross ball to save himself. He can pass a ball, but as a right back he has none of the qualities required. Kidd would be the second person I’d drop out of that mess. I think we all know the first. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staggering, if what you’re saying is true, that yet another manager isn’t going to address that position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
