Tbf that boy constantly goes on about how good Rubezic is, despite all the errors he has that lead to goals (not defending Gartenmann as he's been pish the last month or so)

Rubezic IS really good at pure, old fashioned defending, that's why

They are also playing different roles which he tried to explain in his “cat and dog” analogy. Stefan and Richard are letting him be defend whilst they do the distribution work.

Yeah, i put that rather badly and oversold him.

Goodwin should never have made Stewart Captain or insisted on a style of play which exposed him game after game. He couldn't pass a ball.

Genuinely think it was much of muchness as to who was our worst defender during the Goodwin era. Especially post World Cup.

Anthony Stewart is possibly the worst passer of a football I have seen in a Dons shirt.

Jensen and Gartenmann considerably better in my opinion.

Jerel Ifil.

[strachanmcgheegoal]

I think he’s more comparable to someone like Clangers.  In the main tolerable if arguably above the level he should have been but then just when you feel you’ve got off with it, a massive fuck up rips a hole in your hard fought chances.

Both of their cup finals apposite.  Clangers got off with his one (fumbled cross about 75 minutes) Stewart as we know didn’t.

And never a Captain..

I would add Kelle Roos to that hotlist. The man that likes to howk the ball straight out of the pitch.

Can't be any worse as manager than he was as a player.

I remember Byrne taking a free kick from the half way line away to Hibs.

Every player was to the right of the box. He hit it in a perfectly straight line out of play at the left cornerflag.

Superb

He was certainly bad.

There was an audible intake of breath every time Anthony Stewart attempted to influence a football to travel in a set direction.

Ifil is surely the worst passer in AFC history. 

I can remember him receiving a short goal kick, and then blootering it (under no pressure) straight into the South Stand.

Byrne for me. Horrendous.

I remember this exact passage of play as well. Hilarious yet depressing at the same time

The infamous slope of Easter Road was a thing of the past by the time Richie Byrne played for AFC, so even he cannot use that as an excuse for his special form of distribution.

Stewart and Ifil as CBs and Byrne at LB in a 4 at the back formation. 

Fuck me, that's a truly 'shudders me with fear' defence.😄

I wonder who would be RB.....?🤔

[Mr John]

Hernandez. Or at least a cardboard cut out of him, which would cost less and make more appearances.

Failing that, Richardson, up by the opposition corner flag, skiving.

[strachanmcgheegoal]

As if, with that quality already listed, we'd have felt the need to play a right back.  Either a horribly left footed winger who we felt was too good to leave out (he wasnt) or a young loon for the fans to jump on the second he tried something fancy, like passing, or moving, or moving and passing.

Rory McArdle was terrible on the ball. He would fit into that back four nicely at RB.
