How do you prosper in the SPL?

After watching that season-long re-run of being 2nd best in the midfield area today, how do we address this? IMO you've got to stack your midfield with guys that will snap and snarl their way through 90 mins - much in the way that Aberdeen did in the 80s...allied to a centre forward that'll knock guys over and bring players like Rirodan into the game.

That, along with adopting a mindset among the players that will pressurise the ref into giving us the marginal decisions that he crapped himself out of giving us today...In short, trying to infuse a winning mentality throughout the club. The smelly weegies have had it too easy, too long.

Snapping and snarling should be in every players vocabulary: starting at the front, pressing and pressuring the opposition into losing possession. We simply have too many unwilling, unprepared or incapable in all 3 areas of the pitch.:bitchy:

I think size and fitness are what we need. Bamba type size, Matty Jack style aggression in two or three of our players allowing the Zemmamas and Riordans to do their thing creatively.

If you look at the size of players and the power they have in the EPL I think we should look to emulate that style a bit more. We should be training our laddies in the same way as they do down south. Technical craft allied with powerful physique.
