Based on no more signings tonight, and our likely starting XI, which I'd say is now:
Gordon
Smith Moore Souttar Kingsley Cochrane
Beningime Devlin
Ginnelly Boyce Woodburn
I just think we're set up too defensively. Typical Levein and now typical Robbie.
We talk about wing backs but neither Smith or Cochrane can attack and so we end up with two traditional full backs completing a back 5. Then we're going to have two defensive midfielders in front meaning 7 players of our outfield 10 are to nullify the other team. Even at home.
Boyce is then playing more MF than CF and keeps dropping deep, like Naismith used to. So while we say 3 4 3. It can actually feel like 5 5 0. Even more so if we manage to score first. As Robbie likes to then defend a lead at all costs.
We have no Colin Cameron or Paul Hartley type from MF to get us goals. McEneff was meant to be that player. And isn't.
We needed a true RWB tonight and a LCH to let Kingsley move out to LWB.
I still think Robbie needs to go and a more adventurous manager appointed. Let's be honest we're joint top but haven't looked good in most games.
