    Think we will go 5 at the back with Andy up top to try and bully the young ones.

    FFS what does Bruce see in Joelinton to get a game week in week out
    and takes out Almiron, the one player with pace

    Quite how ritchie is keeping a place is bewildering.. He's been useless for over a year

    With Lascelles out we need someone who shouts claps and points, in Bruce's eyes. Their inability to play football doesn't matter

    I can't see a way to counter... This is route one and hoping something drops for us... There's going to be no way out because we have no pace to counter...

    If he just played almiron aswel we might have a threat with him and Murphy trying to counter with pace..

    He's hoping for a narrow loss

    No one tries to tell you anything Captain, you know, and write, every possible alternative universe of everything.

    I have to say. If we got our money back for him I'd take it. He's decent but no where near good enough

    I think we have good players at the club. When everyone is fit and played in their correct positions and coached correctly we could compete with most of the teams. It's not too much to ask is it?

    so do you think that Bruce has played Almiron in his correct position ?

    not having a pop just wondering as I don't believe he has

    I'd try playing him in his position under a new manager in a new system first.

    He has on a few occasions but overall he has played him all over the ****ing place. My biggest problem with miggy is his composure. How many times has he got into good positions but fluffed his lines.

    can't argue with that <ok>
    but the lad has pace to burn
    it's not his fault that we sit so far back that nobody can support him up front
