Alan Sheehan.

[Bluenile]

I want him to do well. I want him to be successful. I want us, as a club and supporters to do well. But for god's sake Alan, ditch Fulton, or he will fast become your Achilles heel.

 

[Andrew - North Hill]

To ditch him we first need to sign another DM to make sure there is distance between him and the first team. As I've been saying for weeks.

But some people still maintain the priority is a centre back or a striker...

 

[Martyn - Derwydd]

just got a CB

Why can't Franco do that job? Him scuttling around with Widell and Galbraith ahead of him is our best midfield in my opinion.
If we bring in another starting midfielder, which of them misses out?

I think today showed that an O’Brien type of player would have made it a much different game

Yes to an extent. But Cabango missing made a massive difference and lack of striker.

What would he have done?

The guy is busy and gets around the pitch but I think we need a lot more than that, namely one of our injured senior CBs, a winger who isn't looking to fall over at every opportunity and a tactical change to allow our striker to get involved in the game.

O'Brien was good for us but he only played 16 games. Part of the reason he looked so good was because he was replacing Grimes.

I reckon Galbraith will prove to be a far better player for us

Be gone by Xmas,big mistake appointing him

Couple of things there

It's an extra bum on a seat I'm talking about, to make sure Fulton doesn't make match day squads ideally.

Secondly, Widell is quite clearly not a central midfielder, he's an attacking midfielder. The club even described him as such on their own website. He's competing with Eom, Ronald and Inoussa.

Why is AS trying to force a flat midfield three?

Seems to clear to me that an AM playing as an AM makes sense and creates more chances

You can be an attacking midfielder from a central position though, which is where I'd have him playing (with Franco behind).

He looked a bit lost out wide yesterday, quite awkward when the ball came to him on the touchline

Not sure about yesterday's game not seen anything of it, but O'Brien will be missed this season unless we bring a player similar in.
The Midfield area is the most important area on the pitch, from defence to attack. IMO
