I think they're both right to an extent. They have certainly had their roles slightly nuanced, but Armstrong's starting position has been deeper to allow for late breaks into the box, something which Tom Rogic doesn't have in his locker and Rogic receives the ball higher up the pitch to allow for this. |

I see it that way myself. I read somewhere that BR sees Tom as more of a number 8 than a number 10 and i think that's been his role in recent weeks.

It's a typical Rodgers midfield. It's still a central two but the way he describes it is that one holds and one plays more box-to-box. The reason it looks different is because Brown and Bitton were both holding due to the way they play, whereas Armstrong fits that role more naturally. Nevertheless, he's still a central midfielder in the formation, just like Brown. |

Yup. I think it's just taken a bit of time to get everyone to a level where we could play a 4-3-3 and do the pressing needed.

Papers saying he's out of tonight, Hamilton and County but probably just guesswork. Fingers crossed. |

ok lets go through the December games so far, don't have the time to go through the hole season The focus here are the final ball (assist) or the pass that comes before that Motherwell McGregor goal - no involvement Roberts goal - no involvement Armstrong goal - no involvement Scored the 4th Man City Roberts goal -no involvement Partick Thistle Armstrong goal - no involvement Armstrong goal - no involvement Griffiths goal, Rogic makes a pass that goes to the Thistle defender who looses it under pressure from Griffiths McGregor goal - no involvement Hamilton Griffiths goal, makes the pass before the assist Dundee Griffiths goal, free kick so no assist Bitton goal, no involvement That is 12 goals so far this month we have scored of which he scored 1 - He has been involved in the build up to 2 of those, one that went to an opposition player that then lost it and a good through ball Perfectly happy to say that he has "dancing"/nippy feet, but he should make more assists IMO in the position that he plays |

Said in the papers that he has a 'moon boot' on it and looks certain to miss the next two games, Hamilton and Ross County. |

Or maybe the fact that he doesn't constantly attempt defence splitting, Hollywood passes is one of the reasons why we maintain possession, wear down the opposition, and create hundreds of chances. Also, he'd have had a job being involved in Bitton's goal

Super Handy to start on December for your wee run down. How'd the game before that go. Oh aye. Scored 1st Pass to Forrest for 2nd Pass to Forrest for the penalty. Handy |

If the moon boot was on his right foot he could probably still play. |

Hopefully back for the game against The Mooncats. Massively important player for us, has been for quite some time. We've been crying out for some flair and genius since the days of Naka. Kris Commons filled that position brilliantly in different, highly effective ways but he didn't have the ball skills and lush control of Lubo, Naka or Royston that melts the heart. |
