No harm to Lawless or Amaluzor, but I dont think either are of the desired quality Was about to post likewise in the match thread. First eleven looks ok-ish (assuming Ojala shores up the defence). But as we tired, our options off the bench were not going to win us the game. Maybe Shields will be one but probably another attacker required...

He is yet to develop further but he looks, at the moment, to be ok as back up to Slattery perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted August 1, 2021 Report Share Posted August 1, 2021 Great to see things havent changed on here! For what its worth, I think we need 1 more defender, 2 more midfielders and another attacking option. Whether that will happen or not we can but speculate. But Im much happier tonight than I was this time last week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewarkfanclub Posted August 1, 2021 Report Share Posted August 1, 2021 I see Maguire more a back up to Donnelly in the steely defensive midfield role. Slattery showed today he has a lot more about him than that. Very composed on the ball, can pick a pass and can handle himself as well. Looks like we may have won a watch there. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think he could be Dave, he has looked a much better player this season , always puts in a good shift and has a couple of goals so far, his positional play it a bit suspect at times but that's just experience With better players beside him ie Slattery and Donelly and /or any other midfielder we bring in this could be his year to step up.

supermarv Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 Yeah I really like Barry Maguire as well, bit unfairly treated by some on her as he’s maybe not the next Turnbull or Campbell and wasn’t an instant WOW academy graduate. However last season when he first came in the team he was one of the better ones hence why he’s still here and will be sure to kick on with GA this season which he is showing already.

weeyin Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 I like Maguire, because he has a bit of football in him too. Still a bit raw at times, but more first team games should get help him get rid of the odd rash tackle and overambitious pass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The odd rash tackle is a good thing for a midfielder, controlled aggression is a better term for it, a few hard but fair tackles early in the game to set the tone, just give him some Scott Brown highlights for him to watch and see how it's done.

He was developed into the centre back role which was recognised then it was thought better suited to an advanced role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a fan of controlled aggression. I just meant that sometimes he gives away needless fouls in the wrong areas of the pitch or picks up an needless booking. Should be easy enough to correct, though, as he gets more experience and I definitely think he's worth his starting place right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
middleeastdave Posted August 6, 2021 Report Share Posted August 6, 2021 I see Jordan Roberts has been told to find another club, have to say wasn’t over impressed when he signed for us last season but proved me wrong, wonder if GA is keen to bring him back, but I believe there is suppose to be a couple of English sides might be interested in him or maybe his agent is spreading that around!

Would not be surprised if he ended up at Fir Park at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizoxy Posted August 6, 2021 Report Share Posted August 6, 2021 It was a small sample size with us, but he gelled well with Watt and Cole and didn't have a bad game, I'd definitely have him at motherwell if we could get him (can't believe I'm saying that after his completely underwhelming announcement in January). The only issue I'd see is that he'd be one of 6 players competing for that front 3, so he could end up not getting the minutes he's after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people were underwhelmed by the signing but if you took a look back he got a decent move to Ipswich in the championship after having a decent few season at Crawley and also scored a screamer against us IIRC. Obviously he ended up at hearts for a reason but they were still making good signings last year and ultimately he played decent for us so I’d take him back definitely a good addition to the side for the wide positions.

GazzyB Posted August 6, 2021 Report Share Posted August 6, 2021 I remember we signed him and Lawless and most people thought he was a very poor signing and Lawless was a great piece of business, myself included. Would happily take him back but as mentioned I doubt we will sign him as we have a lot of players in that position already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many good enough though to push for the first team, we definitely need someone in for that front 3 and Shields return whenever will be a bonus. Seem to be looking at centre backs anyway as we have one in on trial ex Arsenal Joseph Olowu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted August 6, 2021 Report Share Posted August 6, 2021 I would be concerned that we signed Roberts and he would be a let down, perhaps his time with us was a purple patch, why can Hearts not get a tune out of him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
