Marciano
Gray McGregor Crane Stevenson
Boyle Bartley McGinn Shinnie
Holt Cummings
Play the team that finished Saturday barring Keatings. Crane will need experience for the Ayr game (given he may potentially be the senior CB if Fontaine is out) and give Fontaine more time to rest even if he is fit.

Crane played in a three at the back. Not sure I would throw him into a pair.

I would go with:
Rocky
Gray
McGregor
Crane
Stevenson
Boyle
Martin
Fyvie
Keatings
Holt
Cummings
McGinn and Shinnie looked shattered towards the end of Sat. Give them a rest, but have them available to come on if needed. Martin has never disappointed whenever Ive seen him. Keatings, Boyle, Cummings and Holt should be able to keep St Mirren busy enough that they wont want to commit forward, easing the pressure on Crane

Bench?
Whoever we get to fill the two centre back spots we still need another one for the bench especially given our injury rate.

How about....
Marciano
Boyle
Gray
McGregor
Crane
Stevenson
Bartley
Fyvie
Mcginn
Holt
Cummings
Yes, I know it looks negative.
But we've got Boyle and Stevenson to get at them down the flanks.
Gray and Crane both at CB but they have McGregor beside/ behind them.
The whole defence can rotate around if necessary, with Gray and Crane being comfortable in the full back positions.
Bartley can help screen a vulnerable defence.
We still have strong midfielders in Fyvie and McGinn and our first choice strike pairing.
Maybe a bit short of creativity through the middle but Mcginn needs to step up and be more creative from there.

Would be tempted to do a straight swap Bartley for Fonts but tend to agree he looked a bit lost when he came on.
Marciano
Gray - RCB
Mcgregor - CB
Stevenson - LCB
Boyle - RWB
Crane - LWB
Bartle - CDM holding and supporting the 3 at the back
McGinn
Fyvie
Holt
Cummings
Not ideal but felt for long enough Stevenson could play left centre back in a 3 at the back line up. Lacks height of course but can read a game and is not frightened to put in a tackle. For a game or 2 i'd feel comfortable with him in this position but of course the sooner Fonts/Hanlon are back the better

Bartley looked like a rabbit caught in the headlights played in defence on Saturday
I hope that come what may that was the last experiment in playing him there.
I find it hard to believe that any (and I mean any, this isn't hyperbole) of the senior players on the books would have done a worse job
I love big Marvin as a DM , but I was honestly shocked at just how bad he was at centre half on Saturday
He made Ryan McGivern look like Beckenbaur

Or maybe 4-4-2, Martin at RB, Gray at centre back.

Personally wouldn't have fyvie in team...his form has been awful for weeks now...time to give Martin and Crane a start I think. I'd play Boyle and Crane as wing back with 3 at the back in Gray McGregor and Lewy on the left of a 3. And I'd go Keats and Jase up front but doubt lennon won't play 1 of either Holt or Graham

Do we know Fontaine is definately crocked for Wednesday?
-
27-02-2017 04:47 PM #22
I would imagine if we get Ambrose in he'd play Wednesday, that gives Fontaine and maybe Forster an extra few days recovery time,

If Saturday proved anything it proved that we can't play 4 4 2. There's too much space to cover playing two wide, and McGinn in particular was a rabbit caught in the headlights. Midfielders were running off him and in behind. We need three central midfielders. Or we play the diamond leaving width to the full backs.

Would love to see Ambrose rise to a corner deep in stoppage time, to head home the winner at Paisley.

Waxy that teamwould present us with the same problem we had on saturday. A midfield that cant tackle. Needs Marv in it infront of the back four/three.

Bit out there but a wee bit of rotation wouldn't go a miss, think this team would work well.
