Capital_stag Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Carey is the only player with consistent pass marks. Paul Quinn is showing real potential to run him close by the end of the season, as is Jackson Irvine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partick Monkey Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Jordan McMillan. Been great so far this season. Proud of Squiddy coming onto a game up there in the bleak north east. Proud, but it also breaks my heart he's doing in in a carrot coloured shirt and no a rednyella wan... #ErskineforScotland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammer Jag Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 For Thistle, you could easily make a case for Lawless, Seabourne, Osman or McMillan. If it hadn't been for his injury, Gary Fraser would probably be the obvious answer. Seabourne has single handedly held the defence together so far this season and it's been no coincidence that things have went tits up when he's not on the park. Marks off for giving away two penalties and his tendancy to pick up daft bookings. Lawless - a bit of a cliche here, but he's been like a new signing this season. He's showing his creative qualities that made him a fans favourite when we won the league. Aside from his quality, his work rate has been phenominal in every match so far this season. Osman effortlessly glides through every game, breaking up play and making simple passes. A better, more reliable Issac Osbourne. McMillan is probably our most underrated player. Fantastic work rate, excellent at reading the game and absolutely solid in the tackle. He's our Mr Reliable. I'll go for Osman though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nizzy Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Osman, in the main, is a really clean tackler. You don't see him lunging in for crunching numbers. It's the quality I really admired in Osbourne, too. He's prone to chasing the game and leaving his man unmarked, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pull My Strings Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Not really sure why you let Graham go tbh, he looks perfect for the back up striker role and looks to be turning into a reliable first choicer. Most United fans would have been very happy to keep him as a back up striker but Graham (to his credit) wasn't satisfied with being back up (or at least not third choice back-up). Ironically (or predictably perhaps) our first choice striker is out of form/having a nervous breakdown/tantrum and our second choice striker has persistent injury problems which means that Graham, if he'd stayed, would likely be getting a decent run of games now. I think a Graham type is actually exactly what we need just now. Ciftci wants to play in every position all the time, wants to beat five players, play a one-two with himself before crossing for himself to score. Which is a difficult task no matter how talented you are. Graham, meanwhile, only appears interested in the last of actions, which must simplify things greatly for the team. Anyway, for us it's Fojut. Guy's awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dundeefc1988 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I will throw a curveball and say Harkins. I thought we were onto a dud resigning him for the 3rd time but the guy has been a revelation and is playing some of his best football at the moment. It does help that he is absolutely Derry'd oot his nut and loves the club as much as the fans do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim McLean's Ghost Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 N/A. We've all been of an equally low standard. Tough to pick a stand out. The cop out is probably to say Lee Erwin who has been decent enough in his limited appearances. Everybody else has had a couple of shocking performances that were more than just a bad game.

Staggie#Wearethehighlands Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Graham Carey. He started the season in so much better form than the rest of the squad. It's no surprise he had his pre-season elsewhere and only joined up with the squad for the last friendly. He showed some great wing play and hit the crossbar from shots in successive games. He created chances for others, sometimes on the right flank to accommodate Joe Cardle playing on the left. When County's midfield was at its worst, he was the only midfielder who was comfortable with the ball under pressure. He played five games at left-back as McIntyre didn't have anyone else to play there. He started off very brightly, with assists in successive weeks, but his confidence was slipping in an unfavoured position. He could be got at and he took a battering against Celtic. In the three matches since then, he's played on the left wing twice and lastly as the central attacking midfielder against Kilmarnock, which he was excellent at. He's got an eye for a pass, nicks the ball off opponents and has a wicked shot. His delivery from corner kicks is more consistent now. Since being moved further forward again he's been County's best player by a mile. He has four direct assists and two goals (including the Samson OG), making him directly responsible for 50% of County's F column. He has hit the woodwork from shots on three other occasions, and when at left-back was involved in a couple of the other goals. Honourable mentions to Mark Brown for barely making a mistake (only his kicking lets him down); Jackson Irvine for the amount of work he gets through; and Paul Quinn who is the alpha male at the back that County have badly missed since Grant Munro's star faded. ^^ This Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellAnderson Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 The way we have become so frail at the back since his absence, you could say Russell Anderson. Jonny Hayes for consistency and flexibility. Rooney has scored the most goals and has been in good poaching form, especially in the cups. Ryan Jack has had games where he has dominated the pitch but his performance v Celtic was terrible. I reckon I'll go for Shay Logan though. Great in the tackle, good pace and willing to get up the park and put a cross in. Also tells the refs where to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
