davew Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 (edited) I like McDonald. He'll get a decent number of caps eventually. I agree. Potentially the best passer of a ball we have. He now has 10 assists for the season (from defensive midfield), he's played more successful long passes than any other player in the league (barring goal keepers), he's played more successful short passes than anyone in the league, and he's played more successful throughballs than anyone too. He just needs to get back into one of the top leagues. Edited March 20, 2015 by davew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strong Like Ox Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 you seem to be obsessed with statistics. I'm going on the assumption that he's works for that football statistics website he keeps name dropping in almost every post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaid Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I'm obsessed with football, not statistics about football. Without any context the number of long passes someone makes is pretty meaningless, imho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartan blood Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 GMS with a beautiful goal, an assist and won the free kick which led to the 3rd Celtic goal. Still can't believe he didn't get called up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it's yoirself only but that's a couple of posts about McGhee and scouting. He scouts who Strachan tells him too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320lichtie Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 I noticed Kennedy was supposedly very good for Cardiff today and Watt had another bit of skill and an assist We have so many players that could be in the squad these days it's great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASTA Mick Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 I noticed Kennedy was supposedly very good for Cardiff today and Watt had another bit of skill and an assist We have so many players that could be in the squad these days it's great It is good. What we need now is a few more defensive options, a couple of the forwards to step up and start scoring consistently at international level. Also, what we really need, is for at least one of these good options to become a great option. We must be one of the few sides looking to qualify for France that doesn't have a top draw player.

The last TOP player was probably mcfadden, last campaign if anyone snodgrass was our best player, this campaign its been sean maloney. Our strength is our team spirit, but we haven't had a world beater since kenny dalgliesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

er yir macaroon Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Not impressed with Steven Fletcher's super car and not impressed with Tony Watt applauding the referee for sending off an opponent. I look forward to the emergence of Jack Harper, who seems like a decent lad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PASTA Mick Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Iceland? They seem to be playing well Good example although I think Sigeursson is a cracking player and we'd love to have a forward with a record like Sigborsson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot to mention Austria aswell. Although theres quite a few sides who have still to really show up Sweden, Russia, Germany, Belgium,and Holland I hope none of them make it to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASTA Mick Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Forgot to mention Austria aswell. Alaba is a fantastic player. Janko has a good record at this level too. I'm not playing down our squad but we do miss a top player or two. A few years ago I would have considered Fletcher in that bracket. Ferguson and Lambert before him. McFadden wasn't the best player but he had a good record at this level, better than anyone we have now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girvanTA Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Something magical happened when mcfadden pulled on the dark blue. Fletcher, Ferguson and Lambert were all class players. I dont think we have any outstanding players but as a team on the park we can compete with just about anyone. I quite enjoy our underdog status Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
