accies1874 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Findlay in for Cooper. Has Findlay not regressed a bit this season (although I am aware our options are minimal)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coooombe Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Findlay in for Cooper. Has Findlay not regressed a bit this season (although I am aware our options are minimal)?Not to a great extent - he's still keeping clean sheets every week but now he's doing so with a better centre half next to him. He definitely deserves his place in the squad and I'm shocked that Devlin was in before him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has Findlay not regressed a bit this season (although I am aware our options are minimal)? Arguably yes but he has been part of a defence that has kept 4 clean sheets in Killie's last 5 league games.

gannonball Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Think Findlay had struggled initially with Alessios methods but given somebody earlier has pointed Killies recend defensive record he must be back on track. Certainly a pick ahead of Devlin for me. I have no idea why he gets picked for most squads even with injuries. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bottom line is that Shankland has been called up whether you, I, or anyone else agrees or disagrees it really doesn't matter as the only one that matters is Steve Clarke. Shankland may do brilliantly if given the chance or he may indeed look totally out of his depth (unlikely against San Marino), however there's no point in us arguing about something which we have no control over. I do get that you obviously don't rate him and don't believe he merits a call up and from my perspective I do rate him and do think he merits a call up based upon his form over the last 2 seasons and the fact that we have very little options currently available to us from an attacking perspective. Who knows, time will tell.............. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troopio Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 whats mind boggling is there were no moans when the still, in my eyes, overrated John McGinn was getting call ups a Championship Player yet Shankland is called up and people go nuts? we truly are a negative nation arent we? If Shankland was scoring goals for fun for Fleetwood and got a call up we wouldnt bat much of an eyelid yet we ridicule ourselves for calling up a lad on our own doorstep? are we ever happy he could be amazing he could be rubbish but for years we have cried about not picking players in form, this is a player bang in form and high in confidence why not give him a go? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 There were plenty of moans about John McGinn getting called up as a Championship player, even though he had played nearly 100 top flight matches and won a League Cup at St Mirren before that. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accies1874 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I wonder if Hanley-Mulgrew was Clarke's preferred partnership when assembling the squad for September before the former pulled out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
