AyrTroopMajor Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Absolutely ridiculous foul to give away from Ross Docherty which led to the goal. Thought we were worth a draw today. Miller had am excellent game aside from a shocker of a miss in the first half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yid_in_Exiile Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Well I was completely wrong to right off Nicky Cadden - he played well today and nice to see him take on and beat his man a few times. A decent cross on him too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEHonestman1910 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 What the f**k has happened to Lawrence Shankland, he can't even control a football anymore. Miller and Moffat up front against Queens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEHonestman1910 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Well yeah I'am serious, when was the last time he had a good game. We should've cashed in for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Well yeah I'am serious, when was the last time he had a good game. We should've cashed in for him.He played well against Dunfermline. He was ok today but was dropping deeper because Moffat wasn’t playing. He linked up well with Miller and Cadden. I would still play him on Tuesday night.

super_carson Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Well yeah I'am serious, when was the last time he had a good game. We should've cashed in for him.Hindsight is a wonderful thing, and it’s hard to tell exactly why he’s been off the boil (morons on the SRE say he’s away to rangers “trust me” but most of them have the same number of brain cells as a cabbage), but he hasn’t played as well as he can recently. Question is, is a out of sorts Shankland better than other options for these last few games? I never fault his effort, just it’s not happening for him just now. Personally, I’d give Moore a crack on Tuesday if he play with a similar setup. It may suit him as he’s more of a finisher than a player who can link up to create.

Calvin Miller played today and was by far the best player on the park, Moffat's recent form has out shown Shankland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact I’d argue neither are out and out strikers. He won’t and shouldn’t be dropped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking about a direct swap in today’s formation , but I’d like Moffat involved too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calvin Miller adds more pace and IMO is playing better than shankland right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I'm still not convinced that Shankland is 100% fit but even a 70% Shankland has to play as his build up play and off the ball running is priceless. What we do have is lots of creative options with Moore, McDaid, Moffat, Cadden, Forrest & Miller all capable of offering something different with various styles possible. Hopefully Mr McCall can pick us the right ones for our remaining games............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moffat is a secondary striker that links play and Miller is a winger. Play one of them alongside Shankland. After today I’d give Miller a go and keep Moffat on the bench.

I think teams are starting to suss out Shankland, even playing Forrest up-front would make teams less aware of what could strike them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanayr1987 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Front three of Moore Moffat and miller play Forrest as a 10/am just front of two holding midfielders doc and Kerr to protect the back four would give a lot of options and allow us to be more unpredictable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaleyStan Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 4 hours ago, rb123! said: Another really poor crowd, only 1,400 on a Saturday is dreadful. Were getting nearly 2,000 home fans in the first half of the season. In terms of singing and general encouragement it was still the best home support I've seen in this league. We fought hard for that with what was a pretty makeshift team and formation. Scored against the run of play but saw it out pretty comfortably thereafter which is not like us. Ayr might have dominated territory but they didn't create any decent chances. Great to be back at Somerset and can't wait to go again for a big game next month.
