I believe that we can survive but not with DM in charge unless he learns to concentrate on substance rather than style and uses the best players he has available in a formation which is within their capacities . Starting matches with Tavernier and Nesbitt as wingers, playing two central strikers and keeping things simple in a basic 4-4-2. Our problems aren't defensive, we don't really leak goals but we can't put the ball in the net playing as we are with one up top. Tell those wingers to get to the byline and put crosses in and the strikers to get into the area. Would we really do much worse at least TRYING it? Leicester won the Premiership playing that way.
The problem is that I can't see DM stepping out of his stylistic straightjacket. That's what worries me.
Footballing straightjacket!
Did you not watch a game under Robbie Neilson?
They can at least go out and play football now. I suggest you give the Dan Micciche era a miss if you want meat & potato’s 4-4-2 and wingers bombing up the line. May I suggest a trip to Willen Road may be more your thing?
Why discourage people from coming?
People are entitled to dispute tactics and preferred style of play, just like we all have different tastes in sandwich fillings.
It doesn’t make them any less of a fan - and nor does it mean they have to stop coming to matches, it’s a legitimate discussion.
