I always had in my mind he was only here for a season, turns out much longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 Aye there's no guarantee, it's an odd angle for a windup. CB is probably our most covered position but without Benedictus we lose a talker, it'd be a sore one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
da_no_1 Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 Pretty standard for 23/24 to be fair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 That would be a huge blow as he holds the defence together through his leadership Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd be aswell as getting a moon boot looked out in Edwards size. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossmcno1 Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 We got fairly lucky with injuries last season. This is where a flexible squad has to step in and step up. But let’s hope that the injury isn’t as bad first! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanguinePar Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 Ok, so let's assume the worst and say Bene is out for a while. What do we do? Could maybe go 442? Sharp Comrie Fisher Breen Edwards KRH Otoo Chalmers Moffat (maybe? Could be play on the left?) Wighton (if fit) McCann Or stick with 532/352? Sharp Comrie Fisher Breen Otoo Edwards Chalmers Summers MOH Wighton McCann Or even 541 if Wighton is out too? Sharp Comrie Fisher Breen Otoo Edwards KRH Chalmers Summers Moffat McCann None of them look great tbh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al k Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 Any word on Wighton yet? Feel like iv missed something. No mention in the managers interview as to why he wasn't in the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 SP whatever way you cut it there doesnt look many goals in those line ups. I would be hugely concerned that our defence would become more porous and our lack of threat at the other end would really start to tell.

Maybe if KRH and Moffat were both more fully committed to attacking, then McCann in the middle might be enough. Leaves the midfield a bit light though if those two are more advanced more often. We'd maybe need to go to a 4 in defence - but a 4 without Bene terrifies me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
