dundeeunited83 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Pawlett, Reynolds, Connelly, butcher and harkes, absolutely fucking brilliant! Fyvie for his own sake needs completely dropped, he’s unfit and his confidence is completely shot, feel sorry for the lad tbh! Shed rule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumigoo Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I understand Fyvie coming on to try and build his fitness and confidence but his brief appearance shows why he needs an actual break from the team. First half was thoroughly enjoyable but due to maybe a lack of sharpness and fitness for some of the new recruits it was a bit of a slog in the second 45. I would give Harkes my man of the match and Pawlett was excellent. Also very enjoyable watching two central defenders get stuck in and try to organise things with passion and aggression. Booth was okay at times but defensively he is still a weak link and I thought Seaman was exposed a couple of times because of his inexperience. Other than that there were good performances across the whole team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinkle Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Two centre halfs were magnificent. Ive got a real love for the both of them already. Not scared to get wired in and Connolly giving boys a bollocking in the first 20 mins. Just the sort of characters we need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paisley Ton Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Well one shot on goal over two games confirms I made correct decision on giving this a miss. We'll need to get our act together and find an attacking formation, at least go down all arms blazing. As for Dundee Unt fans get real - best shot will be taking good form into playoffs and having a shot at Dundee just what BT Sport relishes. Well a wee rest and then the seasiders.

If that was the case then Stanton should have been his replacement given his ability to cover more ground than Fyvie. Either way Fyvie should be out for a few weeks and Gomis can take his place on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is going overboard? We were excellent in the first-half but nobody is claiming it to be anything other than a good start for a newly assembled team. Hardly "get real" territory.

Bodes well, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinny arab Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Well, hospitality today for me so my opinions maybe somewhat blurred. 2 centre halves that know how to defend, what a joy. A midfield of a one guy who will protect the back four and one guy who was neat and tidy in possession. A striker who was supported by 3 attack minded players behind him. Sadly the game changed when arguably our best player came on, Fyvie should be nowhere near the team just now, a liability at the moment. I thought Connolly was our best signing of the window as I didn't expect Reynolds to play for a few weeks, but having the 2 of them at the back gives us a great base to build from.
