Mr.Blue Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Yesterday was the first time I've seen us play this season. Taking into consideration the opposition I thought we looked good going forward but still concerned about the lack of mobility and energy in midfield and the lack of a real presence in the heart of the defence. Mchugh has an eye for goal and looks to be the natural goalscorer we've been looking for. I also thought big Thomson was excellent and will be a key player for us this season. Jai's pace, movement and strength is also a positive and it's great to see him back. Was also good to see forbes putting in some excellent set pieces. Murdoch was his usual energetic self and should be the first name on the team sheet when fit. I do think we need.to improve our delivery from wide areas in open play as Doyle and Russell had a few opportunities to get a ball into the box and didn't deliver. With the current squad and everyone fit I'd go for: Gaston Doyle O'Ware Lamie Russell Murdoch Tidser Forbes Quitongo Mchugh Thomson Subs- McGowan, Kilday, strapp, Harkins, Tiffoney, Langan, Oliver. I struggled to choose a front 3 and left Oliver on the bench solely because of how well the front 3 have been doing lately. Best of luck to Duffy trying to keep those 4 happy!

Mr Toon Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 What about Iredale? Genuine question since I haven't seen him play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madton Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Also Mcmanus. How did he do yesterday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Blue Posted July 30, 2017 Author Share Posted July 30, 2017 Going to be honest I totally forgot about iredale and Mcmanus! Said in the match topic that bearing in mind the opposition I thought Iredale strolled the game. Mcmanus did ok. At the moment I'd have Lamie or kilday in before them as I haven't seen much of iredale or Mcmanus at all.

SpoonTon Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 I thought Iredale looked comfortable on the ball and untroubled in his defending, against an awful League Two side. I can see why he got a six month deal. McManus looked not without qualities, but like a player very much out of position. I wouldn't like him at centre half in the league.
