Team to play Motherwell

**Wotherspiniesta** · 21-01-2011 05:06 PM

Tomorrow we put our 100% record v Motherwell on the line

. Big performance needed in our battle for SPL survival. I'd go for big changes. Very much doubt we would see this XI, but it would be a team with youthful exuberance with players who can actually pass the ball!

........................Brown..................... .....

W'Spoon.......Dickoh.....Hanlon.........Booth

Zemmama....Welsh.......McBride....Galbraith

..................Trakys....Duffy................. ...

Bench: Stack Hart Murray Stevenson Nish Riordan Byrne

What XI would everyone else like to see?

Here is a positive...Motherwell haven't beaten us this season...we have taken 6 points off them (so they will probably beat us tomorrow...

)

Anyway team bingo - what I think CC will play

Stack / Smith

Hart
Hanlon
Dickoh
Booth

Wootherspoon
Murray / Rankin
McBride
Galbraith

Riordan
Nish

Subs..Bryne, Stevens, Brown, Duffy, Zemmamma, Rankin/Murray

Would take a point and a goal scored as an improvement...this terrible run must end soon :ro

Aye, I don't think it'd be very proffesional having someone pick the team who has another job for the six other days of the week eh?!

why are people even considering playing nish ahead of trackys, duffy and byrne? Hes demonstrated countless times that hes just not good enough.

We all know that

Though CC seems to want to play him.

I would play either Duffy or Byrne up top - we need movement and not people standing still up there.

I have to the best of my memory never been openly critical of Nish and always thought it was worth playing him in the hope that he would start scoring again. However my patience with him has withered and watching him on Tuesday finally convinced me that he is finished at Hibs.

I like that team - attacking but lets go for it.

I want Murray in there but I really think he struggles in CM - maybe let him hold and just do the basics.

A young back four but one for the future ?

I was actually saying before tuesday i thought he should play against Ayr as they could struggle to deal with him and he has proven in the past he's capable of scoring goals, however, tuesday was the final straw for me, he was absolutely abysmal and didn't once look like scoring, that had to be his last chance and it never happened for him unfortunately so time to start trying other things.

TBH though from the little i've seen of Byrne i'm far from convinced he's the answer, however there's potential with him, Nish is finished at hibs IMO.

If that was a serious question, and not part of your joke. Then he is a young Cm who is quite defensive minded, came up from the U19s but injury has meant he has not made the 1st team yet.

If Thornhill is not available then:

Brown

Thicot Dickoh Hanlon Booth

Murray McBride

Wotherspoon Zemmama Riordan

Byrne

Really need a striker though, hopefully we do get Rooney.

***bingo70*** · 21-01-2011 06:02 PM

Hart
Dickoh
Hanlon
Booth

Wotherspon
Mcbride (i'd actually give welsh a go but i doubt very much if that'll happen)
Rankin
Riordan

Duffy

**PeterboroHibee** · 21-01-2011 06:14 PM

Brown

Spoony
Dickoh/Stephens
Hanlon (c)
Booth

Zemmama
McBride
Welsh
Galbraith

Trakys
Duffy

And told to keep the ball on the deck as much as possible!

It wont be anything like that however, it will be the same jokers who have been oh so successful for us this season, and most likely the CBs hoofing terrible balls up to a lone Riordan all game long.

***blackpoolhibs*** · 21-01-2011 06:22 PM

If Smith Hart Murray and Nish are anywhere near fir park tomorrow, i seriously wonder if Calderwood is up to the job.

I agree about Smith and Nish, both have blown what should be there last chance, the other two i'd disagree with, both should be replaced with new signings but until then i'd have hart as right back as there's no one else and murray on the bench as cover for a number of positions.

**Albion Hibs** · 21-01-2011 06:47 PM

Brown

Thicot / Dickoh / Hanlon / Booth

Wotherspoon / McBride / Murray / Rankin

Zemamma / Nish

I would have liked to have put Wotherspoon at right back as I think that is his strongest position, however that would leave the midfield on the short side so have elected to play him in the midfield.

Zemamma ran riot on his last outing so have put him up front, his pace will hopefully undo the old legs in the Motherwell defence. Both Motherwell CH's are pretty strong in the air so I was tempted to leave Nish out to avoid our midfield hiding and our defence being forced to punt the ball up front, which never works anyway, but he has a decent scoring record for us at fir park! so thought I would put him in ahead of Duffy.

Subs
Riordan
Duffy
Bryne
Stephens
Hart
Stacks
