Mantis Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 I don't think he's good enough to be where we want to be. He's a bottom 10 starter, top half squad player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know if you have seen any Scotland games recently. Last 8 games, won 6 and drawn 2. We have dominated the ball (not Austria game) in pretty much all those games. McGinn has thrived in these games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoobs Posted April 2, 2022 Visiting Supporter Share Posted April 2, 2022 I genuinely think if McGinn didn’t have the audacity to slip on THE HALF WAY LINE today, the hatred for him wouldn’t be so deep today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play him in an attacking role or not at all. That is the bottom line. I dont know about that he seems to have dropped a few times today 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa_Vids Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 I love everything this guy stands for but I think that blinds me to his limitations. I am sick of making excuses for his poorer performances or lack of ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely you don't believe he's a better option as a 10 than any of our other AMs though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.Bear Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 John McGinn gets away with more terrible performances than anyone else in the team. His nickname needs to be changed from Super John to Teflon John. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 1 decent player can make all the difference, look at Erikson at Brentford. It's ashame we don't see the same performances he puts out for Scotland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 The problem is Gerrard is making me hate John McGinn by playing him weekly. I do really like John McGinn..... **** Off Gerrard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't think a player who cannot consistently complete 5 yard passes and constantly rushes our attacks hinders our ability to play possession football? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Said it before, I like him but he should be used higher up the pitch in one of the 10 roles. And mostly as a sub coming in with some energy in the second half. His limitations on the ball hinders our ability to keep possession and him being so one footed slows us down as he has to shuffle round to make a pass with his left foot. Having him play further down the field creates a risk as we saw yesterday. Anyone can slip so that's not the big issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your agenda is ridiculous. Your last post claimed McGinn was one of the main reasons we have been passengers the last 18 months. No criticism for anyone else though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
