It sounds like a role invented for Charlie Mulgrew!!


I am coming around to thinking I might be prepared to play Mulgrew against a team who were playing defensively with a lone striker. His free kicks and crosses are great. However no calls for him to play in defence - one of my abiding memories of watching my team do Cellik a few weeks ago is Harkins nutmegging him twice. His pass backs against the Jambos yesterday were a nightmare and he gave the ball away under pressure numerous times........

cannae defend....

We neither have central defenders with the quality on the ball nor the defensive midfielder (without Fletch) to make that system work. It would be suicide.
