The Partick Thistle thread


Recommended Posts

Winced when I saw articles saying "Doolan faces race agaisnt time"  If Doolan is going to be injured and miss games this season then it may aswell be the games we won't be winning anyway. I wouldn't risk him till away to County tbh because if the hamstring goes completly and hes out long term..

Would take Brian Graham - a target man that can jump and attempt to head the ball would be a significant upgrade on Pogba.

Surprised we haven't abused the Nial/Martin Keown link and politely asked Wenger to loan us one of their youths with disgusting pace (and ability)

Brian Graham is not a target man, you'd be wasting your time aiming high balls at him. Much better with it played to his feet.

 

Although he is cracking at getting on the end of crosses

That will do tbh

Yup. I've always thought he's a bit under rated tbh, he's get goals if you give him enough minutes. Playing a rotational role with Doolan is probably the perfect situation for him.

Would take Graham every time over some unknown quantity but wouldn't be terribly enamoured if he was our only attacking arrival. He'd be a good option and it's relatively well known that Archie would liked to have gotten him in previous years but we could do with a bit of hustle up front.

Archie will pull a tactical masterstroke to put these diddies to the sword.
Either Nisbet and Erskine up front of a 3-5-2 or Edwards drafted into a forward role in a 4-3-3 [emoji211] [emoji211] [emoji211]

Do Partick suffer the same issue that Spurs have? Knowing that Doolan is clearly first choice striker in a system where only 1 player plays. In the same way Spurs can't get a decent second forward because nobody will ever play ahead of Kane.

So you're then reduced to dross who can find a club, or a player who's got no real ambition and is happy to sit on the bench and pick up a wage.

Not really in that we've had plenty of dross (and Lyle Taylor) start ahead of Doolan since we came back up.

I wouldn't have thought so, given that every striker we've brought in has been given a fair chance and a run in the team (except Henoc Mukendi, but that'll be because he was obviously hilariously shit). Azeez played in every single game last season for us...
