No one can say Jack Ross is too Conservative so far this season
I wonder if Magennis will play a bit deeper

I'm guessing 442. Quite excited by that team. Won't work against the better sides in the league but fancy us for a few goals today. Defence will need protection though. Boyle, Murphy and Magennis need to be back and covering.

Gogic will come good again.

I like the starting line up but I don’t think we have all that much margin for error. The defence can’t afford any brainfarts and I don’t think we can afford to give them a lead to defend.
It could potentially get a bit ugly if we’re behind or level after an hour.
As you say though - we do look like we’ve got a decent attacking threat out there from the start.
Quite hard to see where Magennis, Boyle, Scott, Murphy and Nisbet all fit in.
Should be interesting.

That's not my point, you have every right to your opinion but they are experienced players.

Just because a player's got experience doesn't make them good.

If we play like this in our next game…the derby we will get hammered.
Looks like Murphy felt his hamstring so will probably miss a few weeks minimum.
The lack of signings hurt us in Europe, last week and could easily be an issue today if we don’t pick up 3 points against a dire Livi team.
Fingers crossed we up it 2nd half as 3 points here for taking.
RyeSloan
28-08-2021, 02:54 PM
We didn’t really get out of first gear there but looked tidy enough.
JDH is some player that’s for sure.
Scott did nothing but might come into it second half playing wider, not sure he quite knew where to play that half.
Defence untroubled and Macey didn’t kick to touch once.
Apart from that not too much to get excited about apart from the drum being back in the East has been very welcome so far.

A wee tweak at half time to get the attack sorted out and we'll be fine.
What kind of tweak?
We aren’t looking balanced and are crying out for a left footed winger to beat a player and create.
It’s all down the right and so predictable.

We need to move the ball a lot quicker and find that spark up front.

I was 20-25 minutes late getting in but it’s been pretty poor since then.
Scott looked like he just wanted to tangle with the centre halves playing centrally and he looks to have a trick or two plus a bit of pace so I’m happy to see him go wide.
It’s just been a dull battle so far with little happening - which suits them.
I don’t have a great feeling about this tbh.

Feels like first goal important.
Livi haven’t won yet this season so confidence is low but if we allow them to score then I’m not sure I can see us scoring 2.
Stats say no shots on goal for either side.

It's sad but so many teams in this league set up like this at ER. We won't win every game but need to be more ruthless and clinical in breaking them down if we are to finish 3rd again.
Still plenty to play for in this game though.

Very poor half after starting pretty well. Livi have been time wasting since the first minute and diving about like a pensioner on black ice. We have made it very easy for them playing so slowly. Murphy was having a poor game and it might help today having Allan on. Big chance for Scottie and glad Ross kept Magennis in the centre and moved Scott wide to keep us with some legs in the middle

Indeed, we've struggled with teams that just come and sit in behind the ball in recent seasons.
Though I will say this game has shades of the first half Vs Killie, well on top but lacking that cutting edge. Hope we find it this half

I get this but we have less depth than last season when we were short.
Doidge out for majority of season.
Murphy out for a few weeks now if it looks minor hamstring issue.
Gives others a chance to step up but just feels like we are lacking quality still.
