Every week or was this just versus hearts??
-
Iād assume. I think we keep Morris and topi, vinnie, gueye, and okkels can move on. Morris and topi are young and growing, far from the finished product. Not having a dig at Connor, but anyone whom is not clearly better than Connor mclennan should not be here. We realized that standard for not being good enough and have replaced with mediocre. Add this guy is great, need one more legit winger after that (provided we punt the other 3.)

Pretty sure the program had a virus when it shot out Ambrose.
-
We signed mcgarry then lost out on the young winger last summer so clearly scout that market. Sounds like our kind of player at the moment, young up and comer with legit sell on potential, can play more than one position. Left/right footed?? appealing by the sound of things, hoping we also look at a couple of senior pros as we lack legit experience, plus as weāve already mentioned, some Scots.

Can they put out a statement saying Shankland should have been booked for his stamp/foul/late challenge on palaversa? You win some you lose some! -
Polvara offers something different, dare I say a lampard type who will get forward and get some goals too. He just doesnāt naturally fit into the current system. Heās not a deep lying Clarkson sivert or palaversa, and not really a number 10. Youād almost need to play one holding and two attacking mids with no 10 to accommodate polvara. Maybe Clarkson and polvara ahead of sivert?

Ha, I wouldnāt go that far! Hayes and mcginn were in their mid 20s and proven players, and close to the two best wingers in the league, topi and morris still young and inconsistent. But both have shown enough to stay, and thatās a reversal of opinion on Morris for me. Heās so quick and learning how to use his pace, whereas topi has pace and physicality and is suited to our league. Given their youth, Iād like us to sign a legit proven winger and itās two from those three weekly. we have a very bloated squad of average players, a bunch need to be moved on and a good few coming in this summer. -

Iām one who thinks sokler is better than dabbagh, surprised he didnāt make the squad yesterday. Dabbagh given the nod as were deciding whether to make the loan permanent? Despite the goal, much like okkels, donāt think heās good enough for us long term. surprised nobody said anything about nisbet yesterday, virtually non existent. Shankland has had a poor season but got his goal. Other than the shot from the free kick, donāt recall much, barely touched the ball. this summer we need to sign a 9, a 10, and a left/right winger. Gueye and okkels arenāt the answer, one bad game for nisbet, but heās not great either. -
Celtic are pish! Weāll easily take down st Johnstown in the final!

Polvara is a very technical and elegant player. I rate him and think heāll do well in MLS, or another league. I also think heāll show well for us playing in our European games. I just donāt think heās suited to Scottish football. Heās not really physical, a battler, or a grafter, and is probably too nice at times. Lovely touch and in a game like yesterday where itās a big field and weāre a man up he should stand out. (Palaversa on the other hand has bite and a bit of dirtiness to him at times.)

Already been said, Jensen seems to be an unfair target. Boy has come in and done very well for us, and puts in a shift without hiding every single game. Is it because heās benched devlin? Cammy devlin red, second booking is fair. Pretty much sour grapes if you ask me. I also questioned why knoester was booked during the square up as the foul was no yellow. Could have gone earlier. Shankland should also have been booked for being late on palaversa. You win some lose some. -

Iām putting that down to mostly inexperience. Weāre relying on players who are up and comers, and who are inconsistent. Morris, topi, Jensen, Clarkson, dorrington, Milne, even Boyd are young lads. Palaversa, knoester, dabbagh, papa, polvara, okkels not regular starters career to date and maybe never played in semis or finals at this type of level. Mitov and McGrath back from injury and prob not 100%. Nisbet while on form is limited. We expect a lot from our right and left back. Shinnie is the only senior āexperiencedā pro, maybe nisbet. But itās a nervy semi from an inconsistent team. We dominated the game, didnāt shoot ourselves in the foot, and found a way to win. Over the peace, good enough for me today! -

Will add, heās not everyoneās favorite but Jensen is one fit fucker. Works so hard, plus the sprint to overlap on the counter in extra time. Every excuse to rest and he sprints to support instead. Shinnie too, what a shift for an old man. -

Job done. Not great but a win is a win. Said it already, we are a young inexperienced team and it shows. no stand outs but I do want to say itās nice to see polvara play, hope he gets more minutes.
