dundeefc1783 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 McGinn and McTominay were both played out of position and both were anonymous. To get the best out of them we need someone sitting behind, whether it be McGregor or Gilmour, with McTominay going box to box and McGinn paying off the striker. The setup today completely killed both of them. Thought mcgregor was anonymous when he came on and is lacking form and confidence. He should be nowhere near starting 11 regardless of past perfromance 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 I think you need to calm down. Marshall has been absolutely brilliant for us so far. Is he partially at fault there? Aye. Get over it. Gordon was partially at fault for a few goals in his time too and there's no way I'd have him over Marshall. Gordon is horrendous. Our best keeper is sat at home sadly. SOS Allan McGregor all is forgiven. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roverthemoon Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Sounds like Tiernay isn’t going to make Friday. “You take out the set play and the wonder strike and I thought we defended well” Aye, ok Steve. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
still_game Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 21 minutes ago, DA Baracus said: The mentality was off, once again. We were playing to 'keep it tight', again. It didn't work, again. When our world cup group was drawn folk were saying we could win it. Others, including myself, said there was no chance, and it's because we just don't have the mentality. We are defence first all the time. We are just far too negative. We showed it against Austra and Israel, and we showed it again today. Even so, we did create a lot of chances. Imagine how many more we could have created had we went in to the game intending to take the game to them. Why is there no confidence that we can at least try to do it? We have decent enough players to give it a shot. Instead we shite ourselves once more, too terrified of losing that we don't attack as we could. Been the same stuff for years. as I said a miracle of biblical proportions, not negative, just realistic based on what was in front of me [eg the team lineup] -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect he'll start on Friday though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Doesn’t sound like Tierney is going to make the England game, going by Clarke’s answer there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ya Bezzer! Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Just now, 8MileBU said: I disagree and think this is harsh. Our offensive midfielders were quickly sussed by the Czech’s and there was no forward ball. He also had to turn back infield countless times as O’Donnell didn’t have a clue and only Robertson gave a wide outlet. McTominay has performed better than some over his Scotland career but he was an empty shirt today....and in a really important position. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that was his starting position and the boy scored we'd be calling it a wonder goal. I'm not trying to defend Marshall I just think his starting position is taking the shine off what a cracking goal it was. I blame Hendry far more than Marshall for it. Defo. Marshall actually performed reasonably well today. Better than most of the outfield players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that they are not playing as regularly as he may want but it is fairly depressing that we have two exciting young players on the bench and he picks an average middle aged full back from Motherwell instead and then brings on another middle aged celtic midfielder (who did nothing). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye except for the boy that hit it literally saying he did so because the keeper was too far off his line like. Hendry made a bad decision but it wouldn't have resulted in a goal if Marshall wasn't 40 yards off his line. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
