    It is obvious that Agathe is not in GS's plans and Telfer is not up to the task. It is also obvious that we are struggling in the centre of midfield in the holding position. Lenny is way of the pace, doesn't win tackles and doesn't dictate the play. This IMO resulted in us being dominated today for long spells, not for the first time.
    Anybody got suggestions for possible targets in Transfer Window for these 2 positions

    What about that Bulgarian that Petrov suggested, and although I'm not sure about it I can see Gordon Strachan going for Paul Hartley not that Burleys left.

    George Burley had a lot to do with Hartley staying at Tyncastle but now that he has gone and Hartley has made no secret that he is not happy that Burley is away maybee we could get him although it would cost us a lot more than last summer as he has signed a new contract. As for Skacel he is only on loan and is more likely to move in January.

    Our attacking options are fine. Skacael, Riordan, Hartley etc.. are not required, we have enough fringe players.
    Agathe was not even sub today and is in his final year so it is obvious he is not in GS's plans. Telfer is 34 and playing accordingly. Hence we should be looking for a long term right back.
    Lenny is *, nobody ready to step up right now, we need a replacement?

    I dont think you could call Hartley and Skacael fringe players one is the best midfeilder in Scotland right now and the other the highest goal scorrer and he is not even a striker.

    You are missing the point, if we had Skacael and Harley playing instead of Naka and Maloney we would still have the same problem i.e a right back who is not up to it and a holding midfielder who is past it, so, subsequently we would still have the same problem.
    Therefore any suggestions for a new right back and holding midfielder

    I'm actually not sure. I was thinking we should change back to a 3 - 5 - 2 formation, with McManus, Balde and Camara as our back three. I think the 5 midfielders will allow Nakamura and Petrov more time on the ball and allow them to create chances and split defences. Our weakness in the team right now IMO is right back.

    You are correct about the right back but I don't think we were dominated in the second half because of that. More a cause of being overrun in midfield which put pressure on that weakness
