Same, think he would have been perfect for this game. Seems to have a habit of being in the right place to break up attacks, maybe concerns he’s not sharp enough on the ball for their press?

Need Cadden to be on his game today defensively as no doubt Kent is the danger man, look out for him falling over his own feet and crying for a foul against him.

Have I ever mentioned we desperately need at least one midfielder?
That's arguably not far off the strongest we have available with Cabraja obviously not deemed able to start. And that's a worry.
It really does seem we are pinning everything on Nisbet and Magennis coming back in and hitting the ground running.

In fairness, you could argue that’s because they’re starting?
Boyle and Youan will provide a threat.
I imagine Johnson etc would put a case forward for Tavares and Bojang causing a threat too.

Looks like Henderson will be through the middle which I’m happy with. The front two have got pace to burn and will be difficult for the Hun defence to deal with.

Hopefully their game in midweek took a lot out of them. :pray:

Ooft that's nasty. Suppose you've got to make the best of a bad situation (injuries) but it just shows that for all the players we've brought in, to be so reliant on a number who've shown time and time again they aren't consistent enough or perhaps even good enough is a worry. Hopefully they come good today.

Not his position and against the best full back in the country and a winger in matondo who is absolutely rapid and very direct.

We are at home so you would hope/expect us to press and try and attack them.
Not sure with that line up and who we have signed so far if we are anywhere near capable of doing that.
If we have no one on him, it's likely that Ryan Jack will run the show.

The theory is that when you play a 3-5-2 you don't need an out and out defensive midfielder.
Not totally sure I agree when playing Rangers as the JDH, Newell and Henderson 3 is nowhere near the standard of the McGeouch, McGinn and Allan trio.
At least Johnson is being positive though.

I reckon we have the pace up front and engines in the middle for a high press tactic. Then we can hit them on the break. Only concern is can we get bodies into the box from midfield when we break?

I don’t really see the criticism of the team picked to be honest. Campbell is filling in at left wing back but other than that I can’t see much to merit some of the comments.
The problems aren’t with what he’s picked today, it’s what we e recruited for him to pick from.

I'm not at the game so oozing negativity from afar. Not seeing anything other than a comfortable huns win based on what looks like a Hibs line-up likely to be easily overrun in midfield but delighted to be proved wrong.

I don’t really see the criticism of the team picked to be honest. Campbell is filling in at left wing back but other than that I can’t see much to merit some of the comments.
The problems aren’t with what he’s picked today, it’s what we e recruited for him to pick from.
Wouldn't disagree with any of that and I don't blame Johnson in the least.
It's easy to criticise the team - but very difficult to suggest something better from what he has available.
Campbell at LWB (we think) - not ideal - but is there a better alternative? I don't think there is.
Even though the last time we did that was at Parkhead after Christmas, which - after a decent start before Christmas - was the first time I'd wondered wtf about Maloney as Celtic just blew us away early on (although we're not the only team they've done that to).

The Rangers are almost playing a front four. We have a chance if they all press up and lose their shape and a ball over the top to our speedy heels may work.
That subs bench just shows the lack of midfielders and game changers.

It will be a tough game and in all likelihood Rangers will win, they certainly should, this is a team that reached a European final last year, while we ended up in the bottom 6 and are right at the beginning of new managers tenure trying to introduce new players, still trying to buy new players and with a number of key injuries still making selection difficult.
But with Boyle and Yuan up front and players like Cadden and Henderson in the side, we always have a chance and I'm pleased to hear that the new manager is at least going at the match positively. It might actually suit us that they will come forward and will have the majority of the possession. The one thing we do have up front is pace.
Who knows, we've turned them over before...come on the Hi-bees :flag::flag:
