Never been a massive fan of a back 3 but best get used to it. Will be interesting to see it applied or adapted to play against low blocks 80% of the time.

An intriguing appointment to say the least.

Is Donovan injured? If not, it’s quite strange to leave him out the squad and shoehorn JSP in at RB.

Anything above bottom 6 in the league and Ralston is out his depth.

He was dreadful on Sunday but this is another level. He’s so scared to put his foot in.

Big Trusty looked the part today. Playing on the right isn’t ideal for him but that was a good performance.

More power through the spine of the team with him, Engels and Kenny playing.

Go on son. Fantastic performance.

Inamura starting tonight ….. for the B team.

What a bizarre club.

We would have been unlucky to lose that game but ultimately, we were quite fortunate to win.

Never a handball but we’ll take it.

Tounekti looks exciting.

About the only stick we can’t beat the board with but it would have loved to have got Lennon Miller.

On paper it was an ideal succession plan for McGregor.

2 points clear. 37 games to go.

Not the slick performance we would have liked but a game we dominated and could have easily won 2/3 nil.

Rusty.

Palma, Tilio and Kwon gone in the last two days.

Everyone bar Bernardo gone from the summer 23 fiasco. An impressive cull.

We’ll be struggling to field a 5s team at this rate. Time to get busy.

Undersized to play in a central position but Inamura looked very capable and natural at left back. Perfect body frame for it as well.

Not as simple as this but a few fish suppers and he’ll be good to go.

I think I’m always wildly optimistic when it comes to youth players but a few of this lot look quite promising.

Summers has always caught the eye and having been out on loan, he looks far more physically developed.

Murray if he can just stay fit, has a lot about him as well.

Linked with everyone all of a sudden with wingers high on the agenda.

Would love to see us sign Miller but seems unlikely at this point.

If we call Kieran Tierney player X for a second and take away his history with the club, it’s a long time since a player with his CV and recent history has came to play in Scotland, in their peak years.

If fit, in form and happy, he’s the best player in the country, by some distance.

Bid knocked back in January but I’d like to see this happen.

Strong runner, great in tight spaces and a nice variety of crosses.

His dribbling style really reminds me of Michael Laudrup. That little shuffle between his feet before cutting inside.

If we take Tierney, Jota and Ross Doohan as the clubs 3 most recent signings then it doesn’t appear that there has been any significant change to infrastructure.

Not to argue their attributes but we’ve just signed 3 players that have previously played with the club.

I honestly can’t get my head round what Schmeicel done yesterday.

How to he manage to put it in his own net? Dreadful.

Football has a funny way of being perfect sometimes.

109 goals and counting for James Forrest.
