In terms of balance and how TC wants to play, our best back 3 (in my eyes) is Edwards central, Mulgrew left, and one of K Smith and Neilson on the right. This allows the two wide centre backs to start the passes into the midfield.

If Edwards is out, you can stick Butcher, Connolly or Reynolds in there throughout the season. But I feel we need to try and stay close to the Smith/Neilson on the right with Edwards central and Mulgrew left.

Even if Mulgrew was out, why not stick. Neilson on the right, Edwards central and K Smith on the left?? Reynolds showed last night he isnt good enough on the deck consistently enough to have an impact on this team (he did, however, play some nice passes last night that led to goals). That is not to say I dont rate him as a centre back, I do. But in this system you need ball players either side of a monster in the back 3.

Agree with this but I also agree with Shedboy71 in having reservations about Kerr Smith, just not sure he's the finished article yet.

Nope

[Shedboy1971]

Nope

can you see him staying until January?

[tHeArAb]

Great signing and a great find by Mellon originally, so credit to him for that one. Really feared for us without Edwards this season.

[TerryTheTerror]

Nope

I agree. I'd be massively surprised if Shankland did too.

Yeah. He looks a great prospect. But we have to respect that he is just a ****ager.

Kerr Smith, not the finished article, at 16 years of age, well what a shock? Give him time, give game time with and against experienced professionals and you never know, he might progress to be the player that alot of people think he can be.

I think we are going 352 or 532 whatever. CB line will prob look like Reynolds Edwards Mulgrew with K. Smith and Butcher filling in. Or hopefully only one of Reynolds and Mulgrew plays at same time? Still good options but wonder if Butcher may be away - who knows i like butch but not in same midfield as fuchs and harkes lol Fuchs is class and is 1st choice midfielder every time.

Only issue with that back line is lack of pace. But hopefully they will make it up with experience. I also think that K smith lacks a bit of pace too. Not to tarnish the glimmers of positivity creeping back into this chat. 👍
