There are plenty players playing in the league above us mate that are p ish. Dow being one of them. Telfer scored #6 and that was that. A largely ineffectual player in a poor Utd side.

Telfer isn't a bad player but he is another one that doesn't have the heart and doesn't put his all in to his short career. These boys should be dedicated to getting bigger, stronger, sharper and improving on the weaknesses of their game. Other than Armstrong the young guys we are bringing through don't seem to have this about them. It just isnt good enough IMO.

While im here. This 2 sitting midfielder or 3 attacking midfielder postions are just a total cop out for the modern day player. They should be able to do it all!

But a team needs both, IMO.

I want Draper over Flood

Flood tries to run the play but he's painfully slow at distributing the ball and if he leaves I wouldn't really bother

I'd have them both if we are (and I think this is very likely) we are going to play 4231.

The formation isn't the issue, it's when we try to play to a formation that doesn't suit the players we have (most of last season)

Get the right players for 4231 and we'll all love it!

Is there a rumour we're interested in Draper or is he just a player you'd like at Tannadice??

We're looking at Aaron Taylor- Sinclair according to the tully tonight :D. Good player.

Another day filled with multiple rumours about the multitude of players we are on the verge of signing... NOT

Whats going on????

Have patience my dear fellow. It isn't 11pm on the last day of the close season yet!
