    Fyvie or Robertson?

    Do we need both of these guys playing? They are very similar type of player.

    With Allan a shoe in to return on Saturday who drops out? It will probably be Boyle however with that goes any kind of width our midfield has.

    It's a tough one for Stubbs however I think the midfield suffers when both of these guys play as we lack width.

    Fyvie can't be dropped. He's been excellent recently.

    Yes we need them both a strong depth in our squad will do nicely

    Some of Robertson's distribution was very poor last night (same for a few of our players).

    He'd drop out for me.

    Although Stubbs may go for the diamond again and drop a centre-half.

    Definitely need both IMO. Fyvie has been superb since he's signed and Robertson has been one of our most consistent players all season. Wouldn't know who to drop of we are still going to be playing the 3-5-2. Decent headache for the manager to have

    Wouldn''t drop Boyle anyway, he's been excellent at RWB.

    I'd drop a defender and go 3-5-2

    No chance IMO. I think we'll go back to 442 with the midfield diamond of robertson, fyvie, mcgeouch and allan.

    Anyone know how long watson and gray are from returning? Would be great to have more options for falkirk.

    Excellent ? Really ? Suppose it is all about opinions, but to me he just isn't good enough. Especially last night, thought he was very poor.

    To go back to 442 I'd rather Forster was RB than Boyle, I think boyles been good at RWB but playing a flat back 4 we'd need a proper defender there

    If Hibs play 3-5-2 I can't see how Dylan gets in the team. Boyle is more suited to the RWB role. But if we go 4-4-2 then Foster to RB and Boyle drops out. Questions over who starts up front as Malonga must come into the reckoning.

    Yes, excellent. I was a bit worried to see him pitched in to that position against Hearts, bu thought his energy levels were brilliant. I thought we missed him in the semi aswell.

    Last night I thought he played well too, maybe I'm just not a grumpy auld git though

    I think Boyle is hopeless.What is the point in having a lot of pace if you do absolutely zero with the ball.

    I think there's a place for him as a winger, forwards with pace always cause problems. As a wing back though, I can't see it, he inevitably gets the ball too deep and he's not got the ability or technique to deliver crosses from deep so he's a waste of a Jersey in that position imo.

    Hearts was the one good game he played in the position, IMO. Poor at Dumbarton. Never picked anyone out at all last night despite being in numerous good positions.

    For me it's Allan, McGeoch and A.N. Other for the centre positions on a 3-5-2. I'd play the same team as Wednesday except Allan in for Fyvie. The sooner Gray and Watson are back the better.
