He was off form with his dead balls today, but any other time he is the best from a dead ball situation we have. Gowser does take a good corner and Cummings takes a good pen, but Adam is generally a pretty solid performer at all 3, if you add free kicks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a massive problem. He slows everything down, and gives the opposition time to get back and get organised. We are a far better team without him, his insistence to be everything, while contributing nothing is hindering us.

If he was to just play it the safe 5 yards that numerous other charlatans try (and fail to complete) he'd have a 100% success rate. Eloquence of the highest order, if I may be so bold Dele my man. A modern day sin I can only issue one greenie, lol. Have a good weekend young man. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you agree that he is involved in everything then say he contributes nothing? He plays more balls wide and forward than anyone else. I think myself, you and @RossDee01 are just going to have to agree to disagree on this one. I personally don't think he needs to run much, this has never been his type of game. I think his positional intelligence means he doesn't have to. Granted he has been off the boil since his Covid/Mother passing and the 442 doesn't quite work out for him, but I can't agree that he has nothing left to give. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I don’t think we will agree on this. . He takes every set piece, so is involved, and we get nothing, so his contribution is zero. I might be setting myself up here, but when was his last assist? His positional intelligence seems to be to slowly jog about the centre circle, then pass the ball to the opposition. I’d love to see individual stats on our players, his stats today would have been shocking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee Bliss Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Tbh I might be alone in this thinking but I’m in no way bothered we’re out the cup. There’s no real financial incentive with the crowds not being at the games and we weren’t exactly going to trouble the likes of Celtic and Rangers to win the thing. I was already worried about the amount of fixtures we had left in the season and fitting in more cup games would’ve more than likely taken its toll on the squad. Today’s result at Dunfermline was a great result in terms of if we win, and it’s a big if with the current manager, it’s a straight shoot out between us an Raith for 2nd with 2 less games to be played in our attempt at promotion. The fear for Tuesday is the manager, his tactics and his team selection. Yeah change players around but stick to a formation that’s been working fit us recently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable, You conveniently forgetting the first half of the season when Charlie Adam carried this side on his own? and now he's had a slump you're having a pop at him? You on the wind up/troll?

Neither he or Elliott are good enough and with his contract running out in the summer I think we’ll be looking to bring another right back in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
