Some of the corners were excellent as well, just a shame a few landed on Durnans head. Most players would have headed it down and towards the net, his sort of just went up and out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 If we can move McShane on to QoS and get in another striker to play up front with McManus I reckon this window will have been a pretty good months work. The midfield picks itself for me now in Longridge - Miller/Gomis -Todd - Connolly, and we've only conceded 13 goals in 22 matches. Not convinced by either Sammon or McMillan - both can play well but just don't show it enough 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebobsboy Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Wouldn't be surprised if both McShane and Bell move. Bell can't be happy sitting on the bench in league 1, when he's not injured. Pretty obvious Mutch is No1 now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 We have four out and out strikers in a squad of 19, plus Longridge. If there is any spare cash available it should be spent on a full back. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roman_bairn Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Probably frustrated that in general we seem to be slow out the blocks In games, and agree that Forfars ( and most teams) tactics dont help. Think you’ve got to recognise that yesterday we had some new players in the side in key positions.There’s also the factor that we probably expected to win the game so motivation is not as high as it should be. Plus the small fact that Forfar probably felt if they could get in front they’d have something to defend.., 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Bells next step would be retiring or move into coaching he can still do a job but he is one of the higher earners i would imagine and with Mutch making the no 1 jersey his dont see the point of having a big wage on the bench. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've seen a number of times (yesterday and last week being prime examples) of teams coming flying out of the blocks but unable to keep up the intensity and we rope-a-dope them. We didn't get the goals last week against a better team, but it was the same pattern. I'm Looking forward to Tuesday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proudtobeabairn Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I think there's still a slight question mark over Mutch. He has looked pretty solid since coming in but can't remember the last time we were under any real pressure in a match when he's played. The Hearts game (if we make it) will be a better test. Bell in 1st half of season made some very good saves. Looked far better yesterday and finally full time fitness paid towards the end. Everyone got pass marks though from the new boys I thought De Vita showed the least and will surely be used as back up for Longridge. Todd looked good and jury out on Hall - looked shaky at times at the back and could be prone to an error or two. Doyle far better going forward than usual. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I think there's still a slight question mark over Mutch. Doyle far better going forward than usual. Don’t think we can really put a question mark against Mutch. We know he’s a good shot stopper, and he has been pretty competent clearing pass backs. Commands the six yard box convincingly too. Can’t see the keeper position being a cause for concern at this point.Think Doyle’s crosses benefitted from him not having to beat a man, or try to cross while on the run. For the most part, he had space and time to take a touch, look up to get his bearings, then deliver a decent cross. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senor Bairn Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Mutch is great for his age, no chance we need another keeper, I’d agree that we really need some back up for Dixon, and if I were to be greedy a winger. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
