Played DECENT yesterday. Definitely should be looking for 3rd spot this season. Only thing that would worry me is if Boyce gets injured Monty LewLew

I don't see us as over-reliant on Boyce. He has anonymous games but then gets a wee goal or converts a pen.

If you put Gnandos up top and surround him with boys like Woodburn, Mckay, Ginnelly then we'll create chances. If wing backs could actually cross then we could whip it on Gnandos napper too.

We should probably finish 3rd looking at the other teams we're probably the best after the OF, maybe even 2nd if celtic are particularly shite but that would just be a bonus.

Agree with this - think we look dangerous enough from a couple of different areas.

Boyce also has a decent injury record so not unduly concerned.

There’s goals in whatever front four we decide to play. Team played some great football and that’s our best central midfield for about 15 years.

The football yesterday was class, some of the close passing and one touch stuff around the box was great to watch.

Long may it continue, makes me feel redeemed for buying a season book again. jjay

I don’t want to be negative but I still don’t see what Gnandos brings to the team.

He just looks a bit useless to me.

He was involved in the move for the third for a start but in general, seems at least a decent option off the bench.

Another striker is clearly needed but Gnandulliet gives a more direct outlet. If he sticks around the whole season, I think he's good for a half dozen goals or so. Not a world-beater but not as bad as some make out.

Nandos isn't really mobile enough to use his strength effectively, sadly.

His attitude has been pretty good last couple of games. Hard coming on as a sub

I’d love for him to turn out great I just don’t really see what his strengths are. Agree that it’s hard to make a big impact when you’re constantly coming on as a sub though.

I don’t think he’s total shite tbf but if we were chasing a game and needed to bring a striker on I wouldn’t be confident at this point he’s the guy that’s going to make a difference.  Will be interesting to see how he gets on this season.

Gnanduillet needs balls in the box and chances laid on for him. Not really how we play.

I think the team is all geared up towards having Boyce as the focal point and then when Gnanduillet gets subbed on, he's a bit of a fish out of water.

Can't be arsed with him slashing at shots from 25 yards tbf, bit of a desperado like and wearing gloves in 20 degree heat is unforgivable. Send him back to Dagenham and Redbridge or whereever he came from.

Folk around me were seething about the gloves as soon as he came on Monty Chuckle

Warnock Tbf he had some sort of bandage on his hand underneath his glove but he ripped it off after being on the pitch after about five minutes
