We’re a team full of nice guys and I fear jimmy has a nice guy approach too. Not saying the manager has to be a fergie, but back in the day we had a team full of players who could be nasty bastards, mcleish miller rougvie Simpson cooper in particular were hard as fuck. What I wouldn’t give for a modern day Peter Nicholas or Lee Richardson, class in the middle with bite. The current team melts in the sun. I didn’t see today but it’s been mentioned before, would gogic do a job for us?

Been coaching youth football in the US for 30 years and coached/watched many a game here that’s better quality. Not saying MLS is significantly better, football for me as a whole is boring as fuck now and I don’t watch much. I’ll watch us and Scotland but that’s it. Money and over coaching has killed the game.

I did see the disallowed goal, interesting that okkels catches the volley perfectly. Surely if it hits nisbet the ball changes direction?? Did feel a foul on gogic could also have been called too, a little unfortunate there to say the least.

As much as I’m happy with topi at 10, I was surprised given his height and physicality gueye didn’t start. Not watching, not very good so far????

Been saying for months keskinen at 10! Bout time! I’m also one of the few with a positive opinion of Jensen, but good to see devlin back today. He’ll have that extra grit to do well today. 3-2 us, Clarkson topi nisbet

You mean he wasn’t released in January???

I’d go with this for the current season, and for young player too! Shady mo???? Guy wasn’t a regular starter all year and while he’s had a few big highlights, not a player of the year. And why are we doing this with 5 games left? None of our players have been consistent all year, I’d argue shinnie has been more consistent than shady, I’d even say knoester has had more impact since joining. Topi has been decent, but YPOTY?

Don’t know turbull’s style of play enough, is he a McGrath replacement or is he too similar to polvara??

Plus with Anton Rogan on penalties these days we have a chance!

We need a number 10, how about David Turnbull at Cardiff. Just been relegated to league one, cost them around 2 million, will they be cost cutting? Loan to buy or buy outright?? Would be a million plus but we were considering a million for okkels. Good player, needed position, and Scottish! Not sure he’d be ready to come back north but you never know.

totally agree, palaversa has a bite and physicality polvara does not appear to have and st mirren away isn’t going to be pretty.

Is it manc that lives down there? How does this guy and his reputation compare to the winger from last summer, and the reputation mcgarry had??

Don’t agree, I thought we played very well. You have to factor we were playing the on form team who have beaten Celtic and rangers, plus hearts and united, on their run too. Oh, and us. Not sure we could have done more. We were suspect from crosses/corners as usual and they had 3 headers they could have scored, but we dominated possession, created chances, were defensively solid, and did a good job keeping Boyle quiet. morris is back to me thinking he’s our super sub, and gueye is not quick thinking enough. Both good to bring off the bench. I’d start okkels and McGrath next week, but with those two not here next year, I feel these are two legit ‘must’ signings this summer. Our main priority for sure, provided we sign nisbet! its a palaversa polvara dilemma for me. Clarkson is playing well and deserves to start. Palaversa isn’t playing badly, covers a lot of ground, and sits in. Does a defensive job. Although Clarkson is deep too and has done more recently defensively. Polvara definitely offers drive from midfield and is much more attack minded. Another good performance yesterday. Think he scored a similar goal against hibs last year too, was unlucky with his well worked chance. Is jimmy brave enough to go with Clarkson and polvara next week?

Pretty sure the unfair second yellow on devlin last week was the reason Dundee won today.

Can’t find the ‘Ferguson Must Stay’ thread??

And more decent play from polvara, surely plays minutes every game now.

Deserved too, only one team played to win.

Good team performance but another strong game from dorrington and knoester. lovely goal, nisbet or going??

With okkels on and topi on a booking I would bring on devlin and move Jensen to right mid!

Morris off after 55 mins. He has influence, just rarely brings it when he starts. Don’t recall him beating his man or getting to the line once. Super sub is still best for him!

Plenty of the ball but all too slow. Hibs attack and move forward quicker, and certainly look more dangerous.

Gueye is a second or two too slow with absolutely everything! Very frustrating player! At the same time, he could easily grab a goal and lovely flick on at one point to topi.

Terrible comparison I know but topi reminds me of a young Ronaldo. He had no clue when to pass dribble or shoot when he first went to man utd. Hopefully topi’s brain develops and we see end product because he works hard and sees plenty of the ball.

Summer transfer targets?

I think devlin and Jensen may be a good short term fix, Jensen tends to cut inside and devlin wide. At the same time, we have Morris and okkels so don’t see it happening unless we get injuries. Is milanovic on his way yet or close to a done deal, or is it media speculation/sensationalism??
