Worries me how exposed our CB's look when they play in a 4.
I remember paul merson saying on sky a while back about CB's only looking good in a 3 shows that they aren't good enough defenders. Is that what we are seeing with Julien and Ajer?
Cant see us spending in these positions again unless Ajer was to move on for a good fee.
When teams try to mark Eddie out the game we struggle for a threat and i think it will continue away from home this season.

We definitely need a decent CB, a striker that can hold ball up to link up with eddy and if teams are going to defend deep as Kilmarnock and a midfielder who can score long range shots.

Don't the lads train on artificial pitches at Lennoxtown? There shouldn't be an excuse in my eyes, I would've played the likes of dembele, these youth players have played constantly on artificial surfaces and I think their pace and trickery would work against teams like Kilmarnock.
As for the 2 at the back you let a ball bounce instead of heading it and your putting a target on your own back, that is as simple as it gets.
Time after time Ajer was having problems, which he needs to get sorted soon, otherwise chuck him in at CDM where he naturally should play.
