personal view Woolery needs to get his finger out and start proving he deserves to start games. I'd have had Goss in rather than him, (appreciate not a like for like position) Anyway - thats'a strong physical team we have - let's get in about them.
-
thats a cracking top
-
He's hard to listen to for 10 mins. Tried hard but ended up fast forwarding bits. Hoping to see some better football tomorrow.
-
im interested to see how we'll set ourselves up with the new signings. Hope to see a more obvious structure to our game with better ball retention and movement.
-
Agree he plays with much higher calibre with Scotland My thoughts are we don't help ourselves - other than S'OD what do we offer on the right hand side of the park - there's been no right midfield and any winger/front 3 player has been pretty poor on the right. If we had a solid back 3 behind him or someone in right midfield I think we'd see more. Putting that to the side I love seeing Well players in the national team - something we can be proud of.
-
S'OD plays well for Scotland - who play a different formation to 'Well. He's pushed further up and better protected by a central back 3. He does receive a fair amount of stick - he was excellent again last night.
-
Not seen enough of KVV to see how good he is BUT have seen enough of Lawless, Justin, Woolery to give KVV the nod in front of them. He at least looks like an out and out striker. Unsure of Shields - assuming he's a striker who should be played through the middle - no idea if he's better than KVV or the others
-
I suspect we'll continue with 4-3-3. 3 man midfield isn't that strong + I don't believe we have 3 strong forward players. Most of the forwards aren't wingers and aren't strikers - it's a pic and mix of players who simply aren't that good. KVV and Watt seem the most obvious to pick from. can but hope for a 3-5-2, 5-3-2, 4-4-2 type mix but GA so far shows little flex .
-
Don't see the harm in being allowed to share gut reaction to signings. Feel pretty happy with the signing of Solholm. Something a bit different for us and a big chap who can on the face of it shore up the defence. Happy we signed him and hope it works out.
-
completely agree. No matter who the 3 midfielders are most of the bottom 6 clubs will put 4 or 5 players against it . I'm hoping that we bring in a decent right midfielder who can pass - that way we can have Goss, and TBC wide midfield with O'Hara and Slattery giving us a bit of dig in the centre. I genuinely believe we're only a couple of players away from being really solid but only if we change formation
-
Amaluzor reminds me of a slight upgrade on Seedorf. He has pace and good touch but still to prove to be the finished article. He's often the wrong side of a player and doesn't link play particularly well. Too early to say for sure. That said I'd put him in the team before Woolery - who may be wasted out wide but doesn't look a goal scorer either so not sure what the point of having him is.
-
GA got us out of relegation and learned to grind out results - so we have resilience. I don't mind winning ugly but I don't find our play entertaining, it's not clear what style of play we're going for - other than the determined view that a 433 is the formation we should play. To be honest I really dislike our approach, pre season we looked poor against teams from 2 leagues lower than us. We can't pass , we have 40% possessions to piss poor teams like Dundee, Livingston. If we continue to give up possession, allow teams to have so many shots on goal we'll lose more than we'll win. Suspect we'll be somewhere between 7-10th in the league unless GA builds upon what we have and start playing some football. The frustrating thing is we could well be pushing for top 6 if we changed formation and drop this 3 interchangeable players up front. We have no decent wide men . PS - this isn't moaning about how we're winning. I'm delighted with the points we have but we need to build and move beyond the current approach.
-
biggest problem is we sat with a back 5 for much of the game - they only had 1 forward so their midfield was allowed to play +20-30 yards further up the park than it should. Add to that Justin and Woolery not being good enough, Mugabi aint a right back we got away wins against pretty poor Liv + Dundee teams. A 4-4-2 with Watt/VV upfront with Goss in midfield would have offered so much more today. If nothing more it will give much better possession and push teams back up the park. That said - delighted to get points as it will breed some confidence.
-
Glad we won - important to win these games at home. Thought Goss added more value in 20 mins than Woolery offered in 70. I feel for Woolery as don't believe he's a winger and shouldn't be left out wide. Kelly, Ojala, O'Hara, Slattery , Watt all had decent games.
-
I can't believe that would even be a booking never mind a red card - thats' a complete joke
-
be good to see Goss come on - take Woolery off.
-
he's recovering from his virus.
-
cracking ball in and terrific header - well done Tony Watt
-
Im not a fan of the same starting 11 as last week. 3 man midfield - against a 5 man Dundee midfiield aint great Mugabi not a right back. Woolery not a left sided player. Frustrating
-
sounds like a great signing - refreshing to go into Europe and try something different. Depth of squad looks pretty solid now - if we can add any creative players/wingers (or a damn good left back) then job done. BUT do we have enough centre halves now
-
100% the type of game we need to win. Ideally win comfortably. Still need time to gel - particularly at the back but expect 3 points today.
-
that's certainly part of the problem. I do like the idea of the front 3 being more central. One playing behind the the front 2 enabling Carrol/SOD to push up on the wings.
-
the stats suggest VV will score more goals than Watt or Woolery. He looks like an out and out striker to me. Watt sitting behind them would work really well. TBH I don't know what Woolery's best position is. He has pace to burn and looks to have a decent touch, but not obviously a wide player and doesn't have a good enough strike rate to be an out and out striker.
-
A big 6fit 3in lad who'll play at the left hand side of the central partnership . Good replacement for Lamie who can step in as/when required. Our defence does need to tighten up - fingers crossed this unit can help do just that.
