Maguire

[hopeisimportant]

Sorry if this is already hidden in another thread but I notice Maguire is suspended for our next 2 games. Why is this? Has he crossed the points limit?

 

On Wednesday they play St Johnstone in Perth then Dundee United on Monday night at Tannadice. Chris Maguire is suspended for both these two games. Two weeks today they play St Mirren in the Scottish Cup. Please note any potential replay would be the following Wednesday. (16th March)

This is a bit of a blow as Vernon and Blackman haven't really clicked together. Hopefully something will work though and Paton is always an option as well.

Big Josh against Duberry would be worth a shot. Would think he'll go Blackman Vernon though.

Interesting to see how his replacement does.

 

Im predicting better than maguire =)

Not sure how well any of the other strikers will do covering Maguire, I think Blackman and Vernon are a bit too similar to play together. They are both poachers and Josh is a bit too raw.

would be ideal if we had someone else who could play out left.

Milsom could manage on the left Bri, he has a decent left peg ?

probably, might just be too much shuffling about though and we'd lose his drive and push in the middle. He's the best player we have IMO and might be wasted out on the left.

 

It'll probably be Blackman. Dont know how well him and Vernon will be though. I think Blackman and Maguire would work pretty well. Its the old combo of a small nippy striker and a big geez to knock it down.

If it was football manager I'd give Paton a start to see if he can prove himself.

 

This is real life though and I don't think Paton is the best option. Keep everything else the same and try Blackman with Vernon again. I don't want to lose Milsom from CM so that's not an option I don't think.

Duberry is injured and will be out for up to 3 weeks so we don't have him to deal with.

I'd be inclined not to move players out of position, just to fill a gap. Milsom appears to be doing a good job in central midfield (though I haven't actually seen him play) so why move him and upset a team which seems to be stabilising?

For me, I'd personally like to see Big Josh play as I like his no nonsense style but it makes more sense to go with Blackman the Premiership starlet. Think we'll miss Maguire. He was excellent against Hearts - full of workrate, pace and drive.
