Lack of pace across the middle is a problem, and without Charlie Adam we’d have no threat at all. Finn is ‘tidy’ but rarely makes a killer pass, Gowser is slower than he used to be and doesn’t get away from his man any more.
I’d like to see McDaid and Elliot given a bit of a run and told to get forward, they’ve got a yard in them and have some physicality.
The difference between us and teams who do well in this league is not ability, it’s speed of getting the ball forward towards the opponents goal.
