I was a speedy winger back in the day and loved playing against left backs that were right footed. they didn't have a clue how to tackle with their left peg. seems obvious me that Flanagan can't tackle with his lefty.

I bet Flanagan would love to play in his natural position as right back. It's complicated when the team captain who's not a natural defender has that spot. Full credit to Flanagan for fitting in where he's asked and doing a great defensive job out of position.

I think defensively we'd benefit hugely from playing a back 3/ 5 And Flanagan could be one of the outside centre backs in the style of azpilicueta. It would free up tav and John to get forward and relieve them of some defensive responsibility where they struggle. The problem is that playing that system against lesser teams seems a bit unnecessarily defensive and would mean sacrificing a more forward thinking player. It's definitely an option for some games for me.

John has injury issues, not just bruising, but tissue and muscle damage
Forget him for a while!

Really hope we don't sign Lafferty. We had 3 mill to sign the boy cooper from millwall. If we can't get cooper then I would rather spend the money on a proper striker not a 30 year old who was seeing his career out with Hearts.

352 does not suit our squad. Playing TAV and John as WB leaves Murphy, Candeas, Kent and Middleton on the bench as NONE of them can play in the 3. Never going to happen.
