Right-Back Position - Cammy Kerr?

Never seen this guy mentioned (and maybe there's a good reason for that!).  Worth a shot?  Not exactly high on experience of course and maybe not quite ready either but then who is?  He might take to it like a duck to water.  Only  a week since he completely snuffed out the 6 million pound man as well and we're pretty desperate after all.

Or keep Tierney on the left and stick Robertson on the right?  Robertson puts over a great cross and we'd lose that switching him over, but he also has a great shot on him and could be an extra goal threat cutting in-field.

Some of us remember when we had to put Danny McGrain on the left to accommodate Sandy Jardine.  :(

But McGrain had experience of playing left back at club level.

Cammy has come on a long way and is a very good guy off the pitch who doesn't drink and works pretty hard to improve himself. He was one of the less rated players in the youth set-up but he just put in so much effort to catch the attention of the management team and did very well at Peterhead for 18 months on loan.

Despite that, as an actual right back, he's only really been playing in the top flight since the summer as we previously played him a bit further forward. We had a tough run of games and he struggled for a few games but he seems to have taken a lot from that time and come through at the other end as a very solid full back who does the basics right but can also drive forward a bit as he's got some pace about him.

I think he's still showing signs of improvement but it's a huge step up for him so I'd like to see how he gets on and what interest he attracts before touting him for that level.

Wighton and O'Hara (especially) are both pretty good shouts for the national team in a few years. O'Hara is developing into a brilliant attacking player and Hartley seems to have brought him onto a game by letting him go forward.

Wighton and O'Hara are both very interesting. I've no doubt Wighton will be an international player once he finishes developing physically. O'Hara is different to anything we currently have. I haven't seen enough to know if he's technically good enough to play at the highest level, but definitely one to keep an eye on as he seems to make things happen.

Still pissed off Killie wasted Ohara playing him in the wrong positions and not getting nearly the best out of him.

Yep, but he was being played in the wrong position since he broke through, not just Clarke's fault

That's what happens when you let a bevied Geordie release half your squad. 

Mental decision.
