I dont bother with the top 3 thread. It's full of Brown-Tierney-1 player who played well type lists.
:lol:

I swear if Brown wasn't playing he's still be on some folks' list.
I give up. Aye everyone except Ste is wrong about man of the match. And Brown is player of the season. Or is it Dembele?

I really hope you do give up. It's getting very annoying having you reply "WHAT ABOUT MOUSSA" to every post I make.

Well stop posting then and give us all peace. I'm saying what about Moussa because you can't wait to slate other players but when Dembele has a bad game you defend him to the hilt instead of perhaps agreeing that sometimes he is poor. Anyway, you have your wish, I'm out.

Aye, true. There's a difference between the whole "mans game" mantra and what happens to KT week in, week out. Anyone defending the treatment he gets should never ever wonder why Scotland don't make it to tournaments.

Tierney put in a solid shift today but imo is hampered by this change in fornation. He is starting too high up the pitch most games so can't hit the overlap of Sinclair at pace. Although Tierney is very sharpe at accelerating from a standing start it has become all a bit same old thing time after time. Teams are now sitting in so deep they can double and even treble up on him and Sinclair. It is starving our strikers of decent suply from the left hand side.
Yep and we have the opposite on other side of park. If Lustig is playing, he can't run and doesn't support Forrest well enough which means Forrest is starting at same position Tierney does and his only out ball is back the way or inside. If Hendry is there, well forget it because that boy ain't no full back.

And it makes us very predictable.


Having the right sided defender barely cross the half way line is even worse for Roberts as he needs someone taking away defenders down the outside just like Sinclair.

Roberts is too predictable with his one foot, this also makes it easier for defenders (off course a fullback supporting down the wing would help, but .....)

They’re both occupying the same roughly 15x10 area of space and we’re getting the best of neither. It worked quite well when it was a surprise but if Sinclair is playing you know we’re going with that slightly lopsided formation and teams know how to counter it, it’s also so congested in the middle that the odd time Sinclair moves inside there’s no space there either.

What is even worse is when it is Hendry the midfielders occupying that space behind/just inside Forrest. NtCham, McGregor and Brown have all shuffled out then back in during games which adds eff all offensively. They are only ever giving Forrest the option of passing the ball back to keep possession or giving Henry an easier pass. One where he still needs to run to about 5 yards away from the player before making it.

Last season; Armstrong, Tierney and Sinclair making triangles was part of what made us so dangerous. The way we are setting up this season has nullified it totally.

Pish today. Final ball was awful, lacked composure on the ball and I feel that he half arsed back for their first.

Blown out his arse, needs rest before we kick off next season. Massive games at the star of the season to contend with.

another abysmal performance from Kieran. Early booking may have influenced that, but he was shocking.

Poor. Tiredness must be a big factor.

Unsure. If anyone else had played this poorly for a sustained period of time I don’t think tiredness would be an accepted reason. Those right foot sclaffs into the middle of the park are criminal.

Technically he's always been average at best. His lack of chasing back/cover for the 2nd goal was more worrying.

Struggled up against Boyle (Not for the first time).

Not been great and has contributed to some of our poor defending this season.

Should have kept going when he was through in he first half

No reason to check back - was so surprised as he had a great chance to keep going
