I don’t know because I haven’t seen their full back play every week but it might be the case that he is fine playing in the championship and he will struggle in our league.
What I could say is McInnes has done well getting us to finish 2nd for the last 3 seasons playing Considine every week but I think it’s holding us back playing him instead of a proper left back.
Shinnie is a proper left back and the sooner we get a decent central midfield sorted out the better. No coincidence that we have won the last 2 matches and not conceded due to Cumbersome being suspended or benched. He tries (AC) but in bigger matches he is a liability that teams try to exploit. Funny how they can see it but our manager doesn’t.
I agree. Shinnie is a terrific midfielder but on his Union card it says "left back" and that is where he should stay.
Our midfield will be getting major reconstruction work this summer; probably 2 defensive newbies and an attacking one, so lets fix this once and for all.
Fairly happy with the back 5 for next season, with a fit again Devlin. It's midfield that the majority of the summer dough "kneeds" to be spent.
