DeeTillEhDeh Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 This might be controversial but I think McGowan is an utter liability in that team. Far too slow at getting the ball away. I think he's fine if you are having to play a tight game to get a draw but not one where there needs to be a lot more directness and urgency. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought McGowan put in a good shift yesterday. He held the ball up well and resisted the urge to do his stupid spin in the middle of the park. A few times he could have done with some help for a better pass but I was actually really happy with him yesterday. Same with Cammy, he made two exceptional tackles when it mattered in front of the Cox. I didn't see the "stonewall" shout because it was in front of the Shankly, but again a solid performance from him too. Only person really letting us down was Forster. He can head the ball and that's about it. Doesn't make smart passes and just hoofs it every time even if someone is there to push up. Nearly cost us the game imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Girth Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Anyone got the new home shirt? I can't tell if it looks great or horrible. Thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not got it but thought it looked really smart yesterday. Then again Kane Hemmings would look decent in a bin bag. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This debate again... fucking fascinating. Was he good yesterday? No, probably the least effective player on the park. Does that mean he shouldn't play? Hell no, he's been one of our better players throughout the League Cup games. Gowser never gets a break. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got it, I've warmed to it (as I tend to do for Dundee shirts... apart from last season's abomination of an away kit). Bit weird having the blue lighter, but still works. As for the blue shorts... well they actually didn't look too bad yesterday, but still not big fans of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fifespud Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 The problem yesterday was Robertson and Ness both trying to play the deep - like a diamond with 2 backward points. I though Gowser was ok yesterday, we improved when he went off but that was because the formation wasn’t working. We’ve the 4 midfielders that started yesterday, plus Byrne and Todd. All half decent. The manager just needs to work out the best formation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gifted Sub Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 If McPake just reminds Forster every game that he is merely a defender and not a ball player he’ll do fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Gus Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Yeah they don't look great shakes and seem in some turmoil. Not St Johnstone levels of turmoil but I think we could have a wee chance if they have a tough game on Thursday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Wouldn't be against a black kit, but I'd have thought we'd be hesitant to go down that route considering dark blue is fairly close colour (Admittedly we don't really have that dark of a blue strip this season) and black being one of United's predominant colours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Would've thought a more red-oriented third kit would be more appropriate, though it feels like we're lessening the use of red more and more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eh Peh Skeh Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Would've thought a more red-oriented third kit would be more appropriate, though it feels like we're lessening the use of red more and more.Next season id suggest a similar style to the rangers collar with a hint of red in the collar and sleeve cuffs and i think we’d have a throwback to the lovely umbro kits of the 80’s easily my favourite style of dundee tops after the Admiral kit. Love a bit of Red in our kits every now and then! Need to bring back the blue red and white bar style scarfs too they would sell quite well 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good IMO. We look stinking in red*, the one we wore against Man City was minging. Happy for it to be a trim colour though, it's definitely our third colour, if you like. *This kit aside Also whilst searching for that image I found this 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone remember the kit from 2005ish that got such a bad fan response it was scrapped? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
