Is idah doing enough, on the field, to justify a starting place in the team?
20 Apr 2025 22:21:28
We looked a much more dangerous team with him on the park today. Maeda offered nothing when he switched to through the middle.

He scored?

I thought idah played well yesterday. He linked play well and was working hard at closing down.
Yes maeda scored yesterday but both his goals came when he was on the left, which I think is his best position.
I have said for a while that idah needs to work harder off the ball if he wants to play and yesterday he done that very well. He just needs to continue that, as it is vital for our offence and defence.

I think Maeda has improved enormously playing as a striker and doesn't offer the same pace and impact as he used to bring, when reverting to the wing. Idah foes offer other options but I honestly can't see much improvement from OH and definitely not as good as GG in the same position.

Idah definitely has some qualities and may make a top striker with a few more years experience under his belt. Sadly, it's difficult to get a really good striker for the kind of money we'll be willing to pay.
I would continue to play Maeda out wide if for no other reason than to give Idah, (and hopefully Kenny) some game time.
While we don't want to lose momentum, I think AJ, Calmac and Maeda could all d with a rest, although the last named might want to continue playing while in such a rich vein of scoring form.

I like idah and agree with the general points if view but felt his touch was at times poor.
21 Apr 2025 13:24:41
His touch isn't any worse than maeda.

I thought he was really up for the match yesterday unlike many other games he showed an interrest and worked harder than most . He did have some good bits of play, including a few good runs with the ball& scored .
If that was Idah’s base I’d standard from now on, I am sure BR could improve him to a very good leader of the front line.

There is zero point in playing Kenny after we win at Tannadice. He's not going to be a part next year so why play him?

There must be an inner circle, I would love to be a member of .
I have no idea what is going through BR’s mind re players he will want to use next season.
