Not an option yet (just 1 game) but if he transfers his championship form, to the premiership untill the play offs, surely he could be a shout for a squad place (not talking about starting fyi). Especially when the only first choice keepers seem to be Kelly and the lad at Portsmouth Unfortunately neither Kelly nor MacGillvary are first choice at present.

I think a good home win with an ecstatic crowd at full time could do wonders for players heads. Full of confidence going into a tough final.

Super_Scotlandfan Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Watched Norwich today. Good header from Hanley for the goal. Solid at the back too, won a lot in the air. Still looks rash in the tackle...always seems like it’s possible he could give away a pen or a get himself sent off. But he’s solid and will put in body on the line. I’d have him in my preferred 11.

I agree, our centre half option are all shit though so it's a case of picking the one playing at the highest level for me now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll play centre back for us at some point though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzohiggy Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Folk on here debating two pretty average defenders in Liam Lindsay and Tom McIntyre and completely glossing over the fact we have an absolutely outstanding 18 year old who played and excelled today for Chelsea 😒 A generational talent, who we are so fortunate to have!

Hertsscot Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Unfortunately Gilmour is not a centre half and that is where we have had a problems for a very long time.

McKenna, Hanley and Gallagher may not be top class but they are still decent enough. Who cares that Tom mcintyre got a second yellow, seriously! Clutching at straws? On the flip side we have this blatantly obvious exceptional talent on the horizon and we'd rather talk about guys playing at Reading and Stoke. A midfield of gilmour and mctominay with options further forward of mcginn, Christie, Armstrong, Fraser and forrest is pretty exciting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievably composed. Lacks stature but makes up for it in technique and tenacity. People have said he should go to championship on loan but he's ready for a top league now.

Sorry to be so glass half-empty but it's true. Best midfield options we've had in a long time but we don't have problem areas - we've got crisis ones.

Sorry to be so glass half-empty but it's true. Best midfield options we've had in a long time but we don't have problem areas - we've got crisis ones. Exactly. We've got a decent midfield - that has the potential to get better.- and a couple of very good left backs. On the other hand, we're reliant on a goalkeeper in his mid 30s, who's been third choice for us for most of his career and we're praying that he can continue to play for as long as possible because we've no other options. Other than the two very good players we have at left back, we have no-one else who is of the level of quality required to play International football if defence. And then there's up front, where the saviour is a guy who has well documented problems and - two goals against England aside - hasn't exactly set the heather on fire. Still one day, one day, Jordan Rhodes may come good and there's always Stephen Fletcher - if we need a win against Gibraltar. But let's not talk about any of this.

They've played 28 games this season. Hes not what I'd call a regular starter and reading are an average championship side. Most of the Reading fans I know rate him but at this point I cant see him being any better than Hanley or cooper, both of whom.are playing at a higher level. Ig McIntyre steps up the rest of season and gets a move to a bigger club he will automatically be on the radar because we have nobody else at CB.

Everyone has talked about this plenty on here It's time to let marshal go and give Kelly at QpR or even mcrorie a chance. I think Rhodes and fletcher are done with scotland. Rhodes because hes out of form and ageing. Fletcher because hes an utter wank who doesnt care about scotland. He is happy being the big dick and nobody club like sheffield fucking wednesday.
