first part i partly agree with, i was suprised to see imrie start on the right which although not ideal for a left footed player but i thought he played very well there, i understand your point about not getting the quick cross in but all to often i noticed there was no-one in the box which i think contributed to delaying the quick ball.
Overall i was very impressed with Imrie and i think he looks a real find and adds another dimension to our play, its just a case of getting the tactics to get the best out of him. IMO having imrie now screams out playing a 4-4-2 with imrie and cowie on the wings, duncan holding role and blackie pushing forward. The only time i would play our 4-5-1 (which incidentally doesnt work as well without Rankin) would be against the old firm.
second part i completely agree with, when i saw bayne being brought on i thought that was what was going to happen, puzzled by hooking Niculae because i though the reason he wasnt having a great game was because he was so isolated and the high balls being thrown at him were always going to be easy for wilkie and kenneth. having bayne playing along side would give him someone to run off and pick up the second ball.
