invergowrie arab Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Looked comfortable the whole game and signs we can get some creativity happening going forward. Still feel we are short of a presence up front. Clark a good footballer and finisher but I'd like a big body in there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appere is a big lad - hopefully he can develop into a proper centre forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appere is a big lad - hopefully he can develop into a proper centre forward. I said this on Twitter. Appere has always looked like a "forward" rather than a winger or striker. He could focus his development on being a mobile and decently technical target man type of striker and progress into the player I hope he becomes. 13 minutes ago, Twinkle said: Clark is a nothing player.

Always thought he was a player who contributed a lot without doing much that stands out. Great squad player at this level and a solid but unspectacular choice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loemba90 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Just saw video of the goal, looks like a good wee assist from Clark. I like Nicky Clark when he’s played up front with another striker, hope he can form a good partnership with McNulty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabianKnight Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Right gonna come out and say it. Courts appointment not looking as bad as many first feared. Definitely getting the benefit of the doubt from me. Always time for it to go horribly wrong but at least it's not murderball and there's some attacking and forward play going on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still early, but realistically none of us could have asked for a better start. Having two wins this early certainly takes a lot of the pressure off. I think a lot of United fans assumed we would be on zero points at this stage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aladdin Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 So how bad is benji's injury? Happy enough with Carson between the sticks. If benji is going to be missing for a while it could make sense for the club to offer him a new deal and for him to accept. Leaving aside the league Cup group, two good performances and two shite performances so far but its got us 6 points and a winnable QF to look forward to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bad, really When I saw the first 4 games we had I was thinking that there was a fair chance we could have 0 points after 4 games, To be on 6 after 3, is fucking fabulous, and we should have no fear going up against Hertz at a busy Tannadice next week. Well done Tam and the boys!!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibby82 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Fuchs outstanding again. We’ll be lucky to keep a hold of him beyond the window at this rate. Thought Levitt grew into the game too after it looked like he was taken aback by the pace of the game initially. Welcome to Scottish football. Were Butcher and Harkes injured today? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I think we are sitting on passmarks for 3/8 games albeit 2 were more important than the others - Rangers, St Johnstone and Elgin. I'm willing to write off the LC group games as lots of young lads playing so 2/4. One of the 4 im not giving passmarks in saw us progress in a cup so maybe very harsh. All in all still in the cup and 6 out of 9 is beyond my wildest so pass marks so far but I'm a bit short of being optimistic yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pull My Strings Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I thought Levitt was very steady today. Nothing ostentatious or eye catching just made himself available and played the simple ball well with as few touches as possible. Nice balance about the team all over today, I thought. Tidy and organised. What a difference from last season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven W Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Another terrific win. Battled really hard to get the three. Had plenty of decent chances to score more, especially in the opening 15 minutes. Fuchs was tremendous - An offer before the end of the window must be a realistic possibility. Levitt took a while to get going (think it was the ninth minute before he got a touch of the ball) but started to find some big passes later in the half. We bizarrely seemed to struggle with throw ins all afternoon. Winning a throw in became a hindrance to be honest. I've made the point before, but it's becoming very evident. With fans there we are a different team all together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinkle Posted August 22, 2021 Author Share Posted August 22, 2021 Fuchs is fuckin brilliant. An absolute gem of a player. Hoping that Butcher and Harkes dont make it back into that starting XI 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
