Worrying - White is another bowman and will never score goals. A big hard working lad who puts himself about but has no ability . The manager needs to look at his recruitment . He likes a 4-3-3 and he hasn’t recruited a right back and has opted for 4 strikers who won’t suit being a 4-3-3 . Watt , white , long and Lang are all suited to 4-4-2 . if we’d gone today with a winger on the left , with seedorf on the right and white through the middle I believe we’d have much better balance . that way seedorf , white could all be replaced quite easily by Hastie , Hylton , Long or Watt .

Issue is formation and trying to square the circle Ohara , Turnbull and Campbell are quality players but 3 midfield players isn’t enough . personal view is we should move to a 4-5-1 which can flip into a 4-3-3. Either Long, Lang , Watt or White should play. if we play 2 of them , we need to move to a 4-4-2 .

From the games I watched he continually got caught out and several teams had him on toast, there were a few games we had to change formation during the game and drop Cadden into rightback . I just don't see Tait being the answer .

I'm a fan of Tait's workmate and moving forward he adds a lot to the team. I don't believe he's a good right back. He regularly got roasted and thats when we decided to put Cadden into the position and move Tait to the left. This for me is the heart of the issue. He's not good enough defensively to be the wing back. That said he works his nuts off and is ok going forward. He's better in front of the right/left back but this honestly feels like making the team formation fit to enable him to play. Long term grimmy isn't the answer either - why we don't just invest in a decent right back is lost on me.
