Tony F confirmed yesterday we are still in the hunt for Lewis Morgan and that we should know by Monday where he has decided to go. That’s the problem, as much as I like the guy it’s come from the mouth of Tony F. So probably no chance. I would absolutely love for Morgan to sign tomorrow and me to look like a complete bellend after this post. Make it happen Tony! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweeper07 Posted January 20, 2019 Report Share Posted January 20, 2019 Morgan or the other winger will do nicely - so long as it is one of them . The CF though, that is the big one - hope that gets sorted very quickly indeed . . . . LB info still hard to glean though . . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Original 59er Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 Well Saturday just served to show you what it is to be a Saint's supporter! Terrible performance in the first half with my favourite player completely out of touch and giving the ball away at every turn (probably not for the first time this season, has he struggled to win the fans' hearts). The new players were a mixed bag. Lyons looked ok until his two aberrations (especially the 2nd yellow), Tansey looked as though he needed a few more weeks and games to re-gain his confidence, Popescu looked the part for just about the whole game as did Hladky who couldn't really be blamed for either of their goals. However the game changer was when OK made two good substitutions. When Cooke came on for Flynn I had my doubts as Flynn was playing reasonably well at that point and I couldn't quite see the logic of that change, but I was wrong. Cooke became the target for high balls and he won more than he lost plus he showed the natural predatory skills of a good striker by being sharp and following in on Jackson's shot that was fumbled by their keeper to score the first goal. The second change made the real difference with McAllister replacing Tansey who hadn't really made that significant an impact, but McAllister began attacking their defence and running at them with the ability to glide past their players and set up the 2nd and scored a great goal for the third. I saw a bit of Morgan in him, but with probably a greater ability to go past players. So overall, I gave a 6.5 out of 10 for the collective new signings, but a 8 out of 10 for the substitutions!

Compared to a number of other players on the park at that moment, I thought he was playing "reasonably"! Nothing better than "reasonably", but certainly better than a few others!!!

Lord Pityme Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 Tansey couldnt be arsed to put a tackle in for their first goal. Was he knackered after 20 mins? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that he was the one who came off though gives an idea as to the manager's general opinion of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is common knowledge that Tansey has not played much for over the last year and more. So how does he get match fit - DOH, He gets 55 minutes against a team in a lower division in the cup - so is that bad management from Oran then? OF SPACE WASTE - rearrange and see what you can come up with ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NB18 Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 Despite TF saying we were very much in the mix, Looks like Morgy won't be coming back to Saints this month. Hull, Hibs & Aberdeen all in for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His first game for a while. Closing down runners has been a weakness for this season and last. We got away with it last season. We're not getting away with it this one. I'd expect Tansey to be fitter next time out. All players make mistakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personal view of course. More specifically he needs to be in an attacking team. Celtic will always tend to dominate matches, so ideally they need to witness him in a team who will get plenty of the ball and who tend to be on the attack more often than not. Which is definitely not us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
