  1. As well as Eintracht Frankfurt, a few Italian acciunts suggesting Torino looking at him.
  2. £2.5m bid for Miller rejected. Udinese.
  3. There is definirely a reticence now to take on and beat a player -Accross the board. As a result you end up just passing around the back/midfield while the opposition sets a block.
  4. The priority is by hook or by crook to attain enough points to stay up. That's the bread and butter. Also, shitfesting your way to cup glory is more memorable than playing brilliant football and going out. Can we be successful and play well - Other teams can, but its mostly down to players available (driven by budget), although there still is a bit of archaic coaching (in Scotland in General) - I.e just launching a throwin up the line etc. Individual player decision-making also has an impact. As an aside, when you look down south/abroad alot of the players are absolute units/althletes. Could more be done to try and address that?
  5. Never a red. It wasn't serious foul play. Yellow for halting a promosing attack
  6. That is disgusting from O'Donnell Pulling in the box is ridiculous
  7. That is horrific from Wilson and Halliday inexplicably pulled out of the tackle. Boyle looked off for the first, but pitiful defending also.
  8. Oxborough apparently has a broken finger and Hegyi was recalled by West Ham, hence the boy from Norwich. Assume TJ and Kaleta will be impact subs.
  9. There was one brief flash where he did well to dispossess Killie player and then started to build an attack. Unfortunately Watt's (I think) return pass was behind him and it fizzled out. Seemed to have decent positional sense off the ball. Not much to go on though really as he didn't see much action.
  10. This game was always going to be a shitfest tbh. Decent point, clean sheet and 3 points off 3rd.
  11. Meh Regroup and see what we can do second half
  12. Is Vassell injured? pretty sure he went off the other day. Alot of Killie's gameplane in the past few games was just to launch the ball at him.
  13. Crazy save from Gordon at the end there
  14. A bit simplistic, but if we press a yard harder on Cerny and don't allow him to cross the ball with impunity, then they don't score so early in the second half and we arguably win the game. Its one of my biggest bugbears along with not showing for throw-ins and just launching it up the line... Going out to press/stop a cross, but stopping 3/4 of the way needed to do it effectively. Obviously there are dangers in diving in, but this wasn't the case here as Cerny was pretty much stationary at the time IIRC. That's nit-picking a bit, but those are the fine margins. It was a decent performance and result, albeit a bit frustrating again.
  15. There was certainly no push. There was a coming together, with Watt's arm up for leverage
  16. A bit more conviction, extra yard press and snappiness into tackles needed to see it out. You're then depending on the ref not penalising 50/50s though
  17. Meh. Point in isolation is decent, but pretty poor being 2-0 up
  18. Casey one was offside, but Butland is weak and flaps
