    So are we all, he's just pish with the right one:56:

    Bye the bye, think it would be wrong to drop him in at full-back for the biggest game of the season. Get him in the middle of the pitch where he can have a bit of freedom and maybe just create somethin for us.

    I dont rate Hartley or Sno, so I hope neither of them play.

    And you want a complete novice like CADDIS!:56::56:
    Hold on! You spout * as if it were fact then still have a go at my opinion:31:

    If you didnt know he was both footed and could play both fullback positions how the * can you have an educated opinion on the matter:87:

    Aye he's so pish with it that both Levein and Brewster said he was the best TWO footed player in the SPL:87: Strachan also said he bought him because he could play anumber of positions at the back , in the middle and on the RIGHT LEFT and CENTRE:50:

    I think i'll accept their judgement before yours:86::84:

    Disagree ellboy sorry mate but if your looking for a right back look no further than the natural right back in caddis ,so what hes a boy get him in great experience for him personally ,instead of all this playing players out of position just my view

    Regardless of whether he has 3 feet still don't think he's the right option for full-back. He'd be wasted out there and is our best option as a creative presence in the middle.

    I dont rate Hartley in the middle at all so if he has to play put him in at right back.

    I agree Caddis would be too risky, although does Messi not play on the right?

    Everyone is entitled to their opinion. However I just wish people would deal in facts instead of fantasy as this would stop the negativity and agression being spouted throughout this site.

    Just a general thought not soley relating to this thread.:87:

    Robson isn't a right back and he hasn't played there many times at all. It would be foolish to play him there.

    I agree with you Kennyadl. In relation to pushing players all over the park as not being a good idea, this would not have been a problem if Bobo was available.

    I also agree that Caddis is the most natural for the position,however I dont think we should be so short sited in taking a chance with him for this one game as if he gets a roasting it could set his development back for months if not years.I just think the boy should be protected as he is agreat prospct and his time will come no doubt.

    Apoligy for posting that in response to your post it wasnt meant as a direct response to just your posts. It was just a general thought in relation to the whole site.:shamrock:

    i understand your point it was the same with David Marshall when he came on against barca he wasnt ready ok for a couple of months but then started to make silly mistakes but the lad is there so use him if it goes the other way and he has a blinder it could bring him on years whoever is at right back most of us will not be happy anyway

    What about O'Dea. Is he fit?

    If he is then Strachan will probaly put him in and put Caldwell at right back

    Its a hard one, Caddis could be itching to play but if he loses the ball a couple of times etc, what sort of a response will he get from the support,but again he is a natural right back

    Your right most of us will probably diagree on the selection. Although thats what makes this game great as we all have our opinions.some more valid than others.:icon_mrgreen::icon_mrgreen::icon_mrgreen:

    Yes I can also see that if Caddis had a blinder it might kick him on, But I just feel that is a big gamble to take. As in a lot of instances their has been many young lads that have been pushed in to playing far to early into their careers and for one reason or another it went * up. David Marshall is good example of this as you mention he was just asked to do to much to soon.

    As Rossenspiel said If Odea is indeed fit and picked. Then I think this selection maybe universaly agreed with by most of the suport.

    All of you who don't think Caddis should be thrown in, just cast your mind back a few years to a game against the very same team we're playing the morra, and think of the performances of David Marshall and John Kennedy.

    Where would we be if we never took chances? I think it would be a great move throwing the youngster in as we seem to have a nack of pulling these kind of moves off. I can just see him playing an absolute blinder if given the chance.

    *EDIT*

    And if he plays tomorrow it doesn't mean he'll be given a regular game he'll just be filling in.

    That's the one reason i think he may chose the guy over a utility player playing in the role as players playing their first huge game are that pumped they find untapped energy reserves and usually play a blinder. It's happened hundreds of times and it's usually spefically goalkeepers you find coming in for the injured first team player!

    Yes you are right Kennedy and Marshall played fantastic and at the time their inclusion was bold and it worked. However where are they now Marshall got itchy as he was pushed to quick and thought he should be number 1. Tragic though it is JFK was pushed far to quickly and was capped for Scotland when he was to naieve to know how to protect himself. I know this could have hapened at any stage of his career but being a young lad he may have been better served of having more schooling at SPL level and maybe his horendous injury may have been avoided.If´s buts and maybe´s I know but still relevant as to their age that they probably would have been better served if protected more instaed of being pushed to far to quickly.

    And if he plays tomorrow it doesn't mean he'll be given a regular game he'll just be filling in

    Yep it dosent your right. However are you willing to gamble with a young lads career for one game.?
