Still a little bit short at the back

[shetlandhibee]

I think there has been a tremendous transformation within the club and if we stay consistent throughout the year then I believe we can win it. But there are still a few positions we need to fill imo. I think we are short of one centre back Incase Forster or Hanlon gets injured (we don't have to want to play Nelson) also I think we lack a tiny bit of firepower upfront so we need another striker.

If we do get get Griffiths like some rumours I've heard well rip up the league.:pray:

Whilst I love his commitment and attitude Lewis Stevenson is still not a left back

As much chance of getting Griffiths as I have of Rogering Kylie Minogue:greengrin

Kylie's a bit short at the back too but with plenty firepower upfront.

so to be clear you think we SHOULD sign kyle as a striker and NOT a centre back?

better the devil you know:devil:

Forza Fred, i have heard romours of kylie being seen with a guy in a hibs top....

[we are hibs]

Still need a striker and a centre back IMO

Agreed. Don't think we'll sign another player for that position now though.

You should be so lucky, lucky lucky lucky.

Pity as Gray shows if you have a specialised person for the position it makes all the difference. It would also help the 2 fairly young CH's out.

I really don't want this to turn into yet another Stevenson debate but having watched the The Rangers vs Hearts game on Sunday I honestly believe we have the 2 best left-backs in the division.

I'm more than happy with Nelson as back-up to our centre-halves and would like to see Gardiner get some game time this year too. Nelson might toil against Sow or any other forward with pace but he'd manage fine against the Rangers forwards and I'd hope all of the others in this league. He had a decent pre-season imo and for all he's slow didn't give too many goals away last year.

Gray looks brilliant but I wonder if we might need cover for him? I'm not sure Forster has it at right-back.

Our defence is the last place I'd be looking to improve.

I'm still to see Kennedy, but the only thing I'd be looking to improve would be to give us something else in the final third. I'd be worried that if Farid got injured we'd be a bit light. Cummings and Heffernan are good enough but maybe a but injury-prone for us to be confident going a full season with just the 3 of them. Although in an emergency I wouldn't mind seeing Harris get a shot up front. He has the pace to worry defenders.
