I'd be tempted to swap Omeonga for Horgan or Mallan for the starting XI. He was very impressive when he came on yesterday.

Horgan probably our most creative player at the moment. And the only one who can really take a man on. No way would I be leaving him out.

Same team for me. Let's keep the consistency. Dundee will be up for it, more so than Hamilton Imo.

If he's going to come in I think it would be for Mallan and not because I don't like Mallan because I rate Mallan. I just think he may be suited to the right side of midfield better if we are playing more of a flat 4 midfield again

I'd keep the same team for Dundee, but look to bring Omeonga in for Mallan against Celtc and Sevco.
Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

Why change it?!? Lennon tinkered too much latterly and it did little/no good..

Stick with the starting line-up. The comments made by PH after the game suggest that he saw some progress from the training pitch to Saturday. Give him another week with the same formation as long as there are no injuries.

Same team. Win and a clean sheet is something that we’ve been unable to do well. Changing a winning side won’t happen unless forced. Team picks itself for me.

Same team.
Gauld back on the bench if fit. Agyepong too unless he's injured again?Mon the Hibs.

Same team.
Is Ryan Gauld back for this or still injured?

Should be the same team for me. I think there will be changes when PH thinks a player is more suited to the style of play he wants us play. The wee lad that came on i think plays the high pressing style he wants so he maybe in with a shout. I don't think the high pressing game suits Slivka so even though he has stood out the last couple of weeks, he will maybe have to try and adjust his style.

Omeonga in, Mallan out. We might see Mallan fall out the first team in the coming weeks.

Same team for me. Don’t know why people are so keen to see Mallan dropped. Thought he played well again yesterday in a position I wasn’t sure he’d do well in, 11 goals this season as well. For me we looo a better team when he plays, against Aberdeen we were looking alright until he went off and Celtic away he didn’t start and we didn’t create or hold onto the ball at all.

This a red herring when judging his ability to score against any team above the 3rd bottom slot in the Scottish Premiership.
6 of his 11 goals were scored in the 3 matches we scored 6 goals in. That is 4 goals against Runavic from the Faroe Islands and 2 against Hamilton.
2 goals were scored in the cup against lower league teams Elgin & Ross County.
2 further goals were scored against St Mirren and Dundee.
That leaves 1 goal scored against Kilmarnock on the 15th September.
Since that goal against Kilmarnock opposing teams have stopped giving away free kicks just outside their box and have made sure Mallan has been closed down when near their 18 yard box. As a result his goals from free kicks and shots have all but dried up.
IMO Omeonga should replace him in the team because from the little we have seen he offers more to the team.

If you want to discount Mallan’s goals because of the circumstances they were scored in, maybe you should discount Omeonga’s cameo appearances in games that we were comfortably winning anyway?

Don't think Mallan is enough of a threat right now to warrant allowing his weaknesses in the team. Interested to see what Heck thinks of Mallan considering he almost never played him at Barnsley.

Horgan , Slivka and Milligan are doing well so Mallen is the obvious one to make way.
Saying that, it might be worth postponing that change until after the Dundee game given they are one of the bottom teams and Mallan scores against the weaker teams as evidenced above .

I find it crazy that so many fans want to drop players after a good 2-0 win.
Dropping folk after that would just be asking for trouble, they done the job so let them keep the shirt for next week.
All season we have chopped and changed our team which has done us no favours. We need consistency
Also if it’s so easy to score against the poorer teams in the league, why aren’t more of our players doing it? Ridiculous.

Can’t see many if any changes for Friday, unless someone’s picked up a knock

Mallan is important for his corners, free kicks etc. He won’t be dropped. If we are going to play Slivka and Milligan at def mid then usually teams who do this go three at the back or play full on wing backs.
We don’t really have wing backs so that would mean going back to three at the back.
That would allow Omeungo to play in front of Slivka and Milligan.
