Title: Player changes Post by: mastapeaka on Tuesday, November 7, 2006, 22:45:21 Sturrock has said it aint a quick fix job here and changes will be made. Fair play to the man as he wants to make us good enough for League 1.
But hang on a min, we're in the play offs and have had a dip since Wise left - we can't have that bad a squad for this league. Who do we think will be phased out? I reckon the first to go will be: Fola Brownlie Evans Brown Vincent Title: Re: Player changes Post by: STFC Village on Tuesday, November 7, 2006, 22:49:22 Quote from: "mastapeaka" Sturrock has said it aint a quick fix job here and changes will be made. Isn't that a complete contradiction?Title: Player changes Post by: mr ian on Tuesday, November 7, 2006, 22:54:07 i dont want to be harsh but getting shot of viccent would be a good idea
Title: Player changes Post by: sonic youth on Tuesday, November 7, 2006, 22:56:58 EVANS?!
i imagine he'll want to strengthen the left-side of defence as he favours attacking/overlapping fullbacks, something which vincent is incapable of doing. otherwise, an attacking central midfielder/playmaker type in the mould of friio would be nice. Title: Player changes Post by: Simon Pieman on Tuesday, November 7, 2006, 22:58:00 Can we have a right winger who can play football please?
Title: Player changes Post by: Amir on Tuesday, November 7, 2006, 23:01:03 Can't see too much going on straight away, but all those bar Evans I'd say will have plenty to prove plus a couple of others.
Title: Player changes Post by: Tails on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 00:12:17 If anyone goes it won't be until January. We've got a good squad that are capable of playing very good football, but we still lack any sort of cutting edge. I reckon we could be about 15 points better off if we could finish.

Isn't that a complete contradiction?"No quick fix" and "changes will be made". No contradiction there as far as I can see mate! Title: Player changes Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 09:12:27 I don't think anything too dramatic will happen. Maybe a couple of loan signings or a free transfer during the window.
From what some people are saying anyone would think we were struggling but the last time I looked we were fourth in the table. That's two points behind an automatic promotion spot and seven behind top. I imagine he will bring in a couple of new faces but no more. I can't see anyone major leaving before the summer. Two words - Marino Keith 8) Title: Player changes Post by: Frigby Daser on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 09:30:22 Evans? you having a laugh? he was our best player before he got injured...he's only just come back! jesus!
Title: Player changes Post by: Piemonte on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 10:00:27 Players I think Sturrock might not like:
Fola Roberts Shakes Title: Player changes Post by: Rich Pullen on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 10:19:50 Quote from: "Piemonte" Players I think Sturrock might not like: Fola Roberts Shakes I'd agree with that. Fola's effort is plain to see but he just isn't good enough. Title: Player changes Post by: Sharky on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 10:25:56 He'll love Roberts - :guinness: :beers: :thumbs:
Title: Player changes Post by: Arriba on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 10:44:22 no way evans or brown 2 of our better players easily.

Title: Player changes Post by: mastapeaka on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 11:35:32 Jack Smith - no way get rid of him, he's decent. Reminds me of Kerslake, nice and calm and controlled.
Title: Player changes Post by: Bogus Dave on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 11:37:26 Methinks someone went to his first game on saturday
Title: Player changes Post by: Arriba on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 12:05:53 smithy has done well this year.deffo one to keep
Title: Player changes Post by: Frigby Daser on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 12:13:06 On Roberts, I'm not so sure....reckon Sturrock will be a fan. He says he wants his strikers to be his playmakers - so that means someone who's good in the air and can get flick ons (Peacock) and someone who's good with the ball at his feet and can put a good ball in the box (Roberts).
Saying that, he says its not rocket science where the changes need to be made....maybe he's talking left back and right wing. Maybe he's talking strikers....your guess is as good as mine. Title: Player changes Post by: Batch on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 12:24:19 Quote from: "Ben-STFC" Hope we get a decent right back to jack smith was woeful saurday. He was left exposed. Shakes had caught monkhouse-itus and kept pushing into the middle. Title: Player changes Post by: Tails on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 12:32:42 Quote from: "Ben-STFC" Hope we get a decent right back to jack smith was woeful saurday. Jack Smith IS a decent right back. Easily one of our better players this season. Title: Player changes Post by: Stef Troll on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 12:45:33 There will be changes, as i reckon Sturrock must feel that some of our players couldn't hack it in a higher league (eg) Roberts, Pook.
However the short term fix is to somehow accomodate our strikers in a formation where they can bloody score goals. Or, keep the current formation, but bring new strikers Title: Player changes Post by: RobertT on Wednesday, November 8, 2006, 14:05:29 I'd expect twho grafters to come in and take the wide slots. He's a very direct style Manager and has already stated we won't be passing theball sideways. That mean someone like Brown or Shakes will be out first and replaced with a more combative wide midfielder. Maybe Shakes may hold his spot due to pace and abaility to defend. Probably a fair chance Vincent's place may come under threat as well.

Isn't that a complete contradiction?"No quick fix" and "changes will be made". No contradiction there as far as I can see mate! "No quick fix" would suggest that Sturrock isn't looking for a massive overhaul of the playing staff over the next few months, whereas "changes will be made" suggests otherwise. Of course, he could mean long-term changes.... just seemed a little contradictory at the time. But hey, if you've taken a direct quote from the horses mouth, who am i to argue. GO LUGGY!!! 8) |
