    Need somebody in that mould though. I expect McDonald to be gone in Jan as well.
    Unless we sign two CH's in January I can't see McDonald going anywhere - we're light enough at CH as it is.

    I'm not going to be too harsh on Molloy. I think he needs taken out of the firing line to be honest. He's done well considering, and is doing a job that wasn't expected of him at this stage, but I think he needs to go away, hit the weights and the training room and bulk himself up a bit as he's just too lightweight for this league as it stands.

    He was bought in as a project and has a lot to learn. He really needs a strong experienced CH (Anderson / Pollock type) alongside him to guide and help him through games. Ruby is absolutely not the guy for a youngster to be pitched in next to at all.

    Personally, I'd play McDonald (if fit) and Ruby at Tynecastle. McDonald has the experience to cope with Ruby's "eccentricities" and he's bigger and far more experienced than Molloy. It'll be a battle there as usual so we need as much size and physicality on the pitch as possible. Palaversa needs to start as well.

    Really not sure about Duk as the centre forward. He just can't hold a ball up or stay on his feet. He constantly leans back into the defender and almost always just ends up on his arse and loses the ball as a result. We defo need a proper number 9 though as its lacking just now.

    We've come a long way in a short time, but have a long way to go, and I'm sure Jimmy can see the same issues that a bunch of punters on an internet forum can see, so over to you Jimmy min.

    Oh and away and start speaking to Shady Mo right now about an extension. None of this wait until the last year of the contract guff - he's earned it (those are words I'd never have imagined ever using only 6 short months ago, but it's true)...
