Clyde v East Fife


Recommended Posts

I agree with C.Muir. Love has had the heaviest legs of all these past few weeks. And Cunningham, while a good player technically, shares a vice with Michael McGlinchey. Namely, taking touch after touch before moving the ball. You can characterise Cunningham and McGlinchey as players who'll help us play a bit but that would be to forget McGlinchey's performance, for example, against East Fife at Bayview. And it would also forget Cunningham's performance on Saturday. Both McGlinchey and Cunningham's games are in stark contrast with a player like Cuddihy's who plays in the same midfield positions and, although not a world beater, is every bit as solid technically as those two but far more wise in possession insofar as he takes very few touches and is much quicker about it all in all. It's really that, the fewer touches and speed in moving it, that helps us play a bit.

All that said, McGlinchey and Cunningham should've fresher legs than at least some of our other options. It may be that they do a turn tonight, we'll see. But it does strike me that we're not flexing as much of our fitness advantage as we might with the starting eleven we've put out tonight. Of course, we've a big bench of subs to play so perhaps we'll rotate as the game goes on.
