Jack Ross • Tactics, St Mirren 3 Dundee United 0 • Masterclass

SUBSCRIBE to Coaches' Voice: bit.ly/2UCwkxX
After spending much of the previous season fighting relegation, Jack Ross’ St Mirren had made a promising start to their 2017/18 Scottish Championship campaign - but in Dundee United they faced a team that had won all three of their opening fixtures.
Both sides had early chances in the game, but it was 20-year-old Scotland Under-21 international Lewis Morgan who broke the deadlock for the Buddies, firing in from outside the box after 26 minutes. Defender Gregor Buchanan came close to adding a second before the break, but it took Morgan just three minutes of the second half before he doubled St Mirren’s lead, curling a shot into the bottom corner from the edge of the Dundee United area. To cap off his man-of-the-match performance, Morgan had a hand in the third too, setting up midfielder Ian McShane to seal the win with 12 minutes to play.
Here, Ross talks exclusively to The Coaches’ Voice about the tactical approach he took to the game - including why he opted for a system he’d never used before.

A magnificent performance from Saints that day and a brilliant explanation from Jack.

[@craigmuir5380]

Legend in the making. Loves and understands the game and has a great attitude.

So I took over a U16s team last season, who were in relegation zone first game was vs top of the league. Drilled this formation and it worked a treat 0-0! Amazing result clean sheet and a very good performance had the ref had a pair of eyes we would’ve had 2 stonewall pens 😂 amazing philosophy gives good elements of discipline in your shape without having to drop back as much and be creative with it 👊🏽🙌🏽

Sorely missed at St Mirren. This shows his deep understanding of the game and the obvious research and effort that goes in to his knowledge of the opposition. Jack is absolute class.

[@jamesjross]

you want to read some of the poison from the Sunderland fans for drawing three games in a row. Not all. but you know how fickle fans can get.

[@safcdavid2280]

Jamie Ross weren’t fickle at all, he was the worst manager we’ve ever had

So basically he's saying that Scott McDonald is shite.

[@colinwatkins2950]

His tactics are not working at Sunderland,just not good enough for a massive club in league 1.

[@tomstev2745]

Colin Watkins agree need to play 2 up front and not to play in a negative way

[@katyb6979]

Wow! I'm so glad he's now at my club. This bloke seriously knows his opposition and tactical options. Puts that dour twat David Moyes to shame! Ha'way Jack, you can become an absolute legend at Sunderland.

[@MrMmnngghh]

how did that turn out?

[@andygray7478]

That dour twat is making you look like a muppet now, and where’s Mr. Ross now ?
