Team vs ICT?

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

What team should we play vs Inverness at home next week then? Will their manager be our manager when game day comes? Thoughts....

[Saorsa]

No much point in playing any of them, they're all rubbish. :agree:

Having seen Zoubir in our last 3 matches I can safely say I don't see any benefit in starting him.

[kaimendhibs]

Zoubir isn't ready for a start IMO, can't wait till Harris is ready and hopefully cairney comes back like he started with us

Zoubir is not good enough for the SPL but might improve. Mcgirven was at fault for today's goal and has been average since getting back in the team so I would drop him and play Stevenson left back

:agree: I would put him into the EoS team for a few weeks to see if it might toughen him up a little bit.

He doesn't look ready for first team football in the Scottish Premiership at the moment, from what I've seen so far.

That's a pretty good idea IMO! Putting him into the EoS team would be a great idea and do him a lot of good:agree:.

Depends on what sort of mentality he's got, I suppose.

It could cause him to go further into his shell and lose any confidence he may have at the moment.

On the other hand, it could have the desired effect and make him work on his game.

I think it's worth a shot though as he's not doing enough at the moment in the first team.

would do me. Be surprised to see it, but hat's roughly how I see our strongest team. Really hoping we see cairney soon. His form was almost as important as sparky's at the start of last year.

Can't say I'm a big fan of Vine but wide left is his best position and in his brief appearance last week he managed to set up our best chance. If we want to score goals we need more attacking players in the side. No Stevenson unless he's at LB please.

Not sure of Cairneys fitness but he needs to start somewhere

I see what you are doing there, very clever. Surely we should swap Hanlon and Mullen so they can cut in and shoot?

We are at home so I fully expect us to play 4-4-2

No idea what team I'd start with, I defo would set up with an attacked minded team, with the emphasis being attack attack attack. Don't care if we get beat or loose 5 goals.
What we need to do if get the guys scoring goals. We should be looking to score 3+ goals on Sat.
Our hone games have been that boring of late I'm expecting a 6-7k crowd on Sat.

3-4-3

[Jonnyboy]

Surprised at how many include Cairney who, since recovering from longish term injury has played two or three U20's games and then disappeared off the radar.

[TheFamous1875]

4-1-3-2 lark because I hate seeing Robertson wasted on the wing. This would suit Stevenson's alleged game too. Zoubir on for whoever is performing the least around the same time he was on against 'Well (likely to be Collins, unlikely to be Heffernan). It would also give McGivern licence to play his game and get forward safely, with Lewis covering behind him.

Williams.

Maybury. Forster. Hanlon. McGivern.

Robertson. Thomson. Stevenson.

Handling.

Heffernan. Collins.

Am I missing something in regards to Cairney? Since a long term injury he has not even featured from.the bench yet 90% of you have him in the starting 11? As well as the fact that he was very poor before his injury

It's one solution to our winger problem, I suppose - just pretend the flanks don't exist!

I hope Murdoch is good at dealing with crosses because he'll be facing quite a lot of them with that set up. :greengrin

This is nothing against the team you've put, it's not the worst, but looking at the players there you have to question the judgement of people that think we have the second (or third, fourth, fifth or sixth) best collection of players in the league. That to me is a bottom six team; pretty ridiculous given the turnover and expenditure during the summer.

I was wondering the same thing. I'd play 4-4-2 because we have very few wide men fit and available, probably Robertson and Craig either side of midfield.

I Found this really hard to pick, lack pace/width and excitement! Anyone that thinks we have a great squad is mental..we have soo many Central Defensive midfielders!

We need to have Robertson further forward supporting the strikers as I think he looks good this year. He is big and strong and can strike a ball!

We need to a them early as I reckon the heads should be down with the Butcher stuff!!

Agreed - we are crying out for some creativity and wide players in the side plus something a little more attacking from the right back area.

Hope so. Lad deserves a place on bench following his goals for U20's. Think it's 21 in 18 games or something like that.
