We have majority of ball but little cutting edge. I can't see how playing the same formation every week will produce anything different to what we've seen in the last few games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 With Accies sitting in we need to spend less time passing the ball in front of them and more time hitting the by-line to get some crosses in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairhill Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 9/2. Nex week's training should be simply shooting at that space inside the woodwork! I'm only half kidding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu92 Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 Accies are sitting so deep. Think the break will come through grinding them down, getting a cutting edge against a team playing so compact is easier said than done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should be happy with such dominance but actually is is painful. You can understand a one off game with such stats but all of our games and we are not scoring. We have defence and midfield sorted but a mile away up front. White is a poor mans Higdon. The fact he is playing ahead of Long and Watt says all we need to know.

Yodo Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 Utter rubbish if we can't get a centre in that can hold the ball up this is what we will watch all season . The big guy White widnae get a game wae a good amateur team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 Centre midfield has been ok, in possession, but lacked creativity in feeding White and the 2 wide men. They need to get the ball out wide that bit quicker and let Lang and Seedorf hit the by line. As things stand, the game could easily go either way.

No chance of getting Leigh Griffiths. There is chat of Livingston picking up Anthony Stokes. Not sure what our fans would make of that but there has to be someone out there with a similar goal scoring pedigree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellowell Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 No idea why we are persevering with White has the touch of an elephant and gives fouls away constantly surely time for Long to get another chance or Watt to be given a chance our strikers been brutal so far this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texanwellfan Posted August 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 White pretty much giving what I expected, not a lot. But disappointed in Contribution from Lang. Seidorf, needs to be a bit more alert. Maybe give them another 10 mins then put long on for white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzyB Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 White's just not good enough, I could understand him being in there if we had wingers who hit the byline and got balls into the box but we don't and as a result we're really struggling up top. Get Long on and get him running in behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the match today 17% of our shots have been on target. League average is between 30 - 40%. Obviously we are by miles the worst.

A front three of Lang, Hastie, and Watt or Long had great potential and it’s simply not panned out that way. I worry that Watt is just repeating the attitude shown at other clubs, starts off well, new contract and then goes backwards. Long just looks like a player that reluctantly signed a new contract when he really wanted to be back down south. As I say looking at last season adding another back up central striker plus Lang and Hastie should be working, we all more or less thought it would but it’s simply not happening.
