My biggest criticism of Marti was that he was continually persisting with the same system. At least hes trying something else. Whether it works or not, is yet to be seen.
-
You're right about the players but that doesn't change the fact that the system he persists with every week isn't working and he isn't addressing it. Every game, we lose a goal because their LWer has miles of room because our RB inverts and doesn't get back quickly enough. EVERY.SINGLE.GAME! Our players being crap isn't stopping him from doing something to fix what is a glaring hole in his formation. And that is just one example of it not working.
-
When their wide players get the ball, it would be lovely for our FB's to be in at least a quarter of a mile of them. It's been the same all season. This inverted crap isn't working.
-
If Marti WAS to get, I could potentially see Derek McInnes being approached.
-
Too far.

Yeah, i won't be watching this. I'm taking the weekend off from being p!ssed off! -
My biggest problem with Marti isn't his team selection, although, it IS a close second. My biggest problem is that his system isn't working and he doesn't seem to be addressing the glaring issues that it has. Look at last night. Their wingers, particularly that Miller lad on their left kept getting the ball and Hamza or Thomas were no where near them. Now as bad as I think those two are, that wasn't on them. That was a tactical decision to have them invert, leaving the wingers with space. So when they get the ball, the FB has to react and if he doesn't do it on time, the ball goes into the box and exposes our CB's. And this isn't an isolated case, this has been happening all season. Another example is in attack. Our FBs invert, allowing their two wide players to double up on our wingers. This is asking too much of them so they have to pass is backwards into our midfield who have a striker in front of them that doesn't score so they have no option but to go to the wingers again. And if they do manage to get to the byline or make the pass to the underlapping player, they pass it into the box for a striker who doesn't score goals. We are seeing this again and again and nothing is being done about it.

Two words.... Russell. Martin. ....and dont think we wouldn't.
-
Fuch this.
-
So what was the relevance of QPR playing Millwall?
-
You know what terrifies me about the prospect of Marti going? Russell Martin. And you just know that we would.
-
If Celtic are a Honda Civic, Dundee are a drunk 12 year old on a BMX. The lack of investment argument is BS domestically.
-
I see what you did there.
-
Can't even be arsed being angry.
-
That would have been my starting 11. So no complaints.
-
I don't think that the starting 11 will be as strong as people hope. We will want to save some of our better players to start on Tuesday.
-
The rumours going around is that Muscat be appointed in November with Neil McCann as his #2 who will take charge whilst KM finishes the season in China.
-
Maldini being #63 is ridiculous. Arguably the best LB AND CB on the list. He's top 5 on there easily but attackers are always prioritised.
-
When did they start? We haven't qualified for a world cup in almost 30 years... We've snuck in the back door of the last couple of euros and been arguably the worst team in the competition. So... where are these supposed "good times?"
-
Aye. Going into tonight, I was hoping for a draw in the Den/Gre game but we really cant bank on a any points in the final 2 so I will take a play off spot now.
-
I can't actually believe we've come away with 6 points from those 2 games. We were shockingly bad and we can't just gloss over it because we got the wins.
-
As I understand it, if he comes back to the UK to work before the end of the tax year, he has to pay taxes on the £14m that he earned in Saudi over the last year. Hardly surprising he isn't willing to do that.
-
I was furious when Clarke took Gannon-Doak off but it did actually change the game.
-
Will take it all day.
-
Is Gerards even able too? Is his tax situation over now? Rohl would be a tempting pick but I think your right. It might be a bit too big of a job at this stage in hos career. I think Muscat would be a smart shout.
