Think his issue at international level the pace of the game is slower and yes his passing isn't always as accurate as it should be hence the mistakes which have cost goals. Will certainly need to sharpen up that area for premier league. I think these fears are overblown. A few months in the EPL will sort him out as regards unforced errors.

Will certainly need to sharpen up that area for premier league. Then it's a good thing Grealish isn't going to play for Scotland. 1 minute - He couldn't control a concrete ball. When John McGinn collects the ball his natural inclination is to drop his shoulder and try to dribble, which is fine if you're doing it close to the opposition box, but if you do it in your own box you're just asking for trouble. This clip isn't of him wanting to dribble, it's of his poor ability to do the basics. The ball bounced off him! If he plays for Scotland he has to play in the number 10 role.

Considering our best right back options are Allan Hutton (still) & Ryan Jack (hasn’t played there at club level in about 7 years) then yes, probably.

Most of the time I’ve seen him play otherwise he’s looked poor though. Isn’t a good crosser of the ball and always looks rushed. Can’t see him making it at Celtic. Maybe a couple of seasons at a Scottish premier club or bottom-ish of the championship might benefit him. Regular games will hopefully help him being more comfortable on the ball. Looks a hard working player so could be a good option in a couple years time. But can we wait that long without a half decent right back?!

Cardiff have played him upfront and left midfield I think. They don't really rate him as a right back as he isn't great at defending.

Played his first two games at Cardiff at right back and hasn't played there since. He proved very good higher up the park at championship level which prompted Warnock to say he had bought a dud right back but a cracking midfielder. Still think he does ok there for Scotland though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csinclair Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 SOD is our best right back and I think a lot of the criticism he gets on here is harsh. He's nowhere near Hutton was at his age but he's steady enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
