    Cummings & Stokes given?

    Think Cummings was way too greedy today - is he a given to start alongside Stokes - impressed with his attitude today? Or does Keatings get a look in? Can see Fom being on the bench.

    Hail hail

    Not just today, needs to lift his head more and pass instead of trying to beat a man 3-4 times. I'd like to see Stokes and Dagnall.

    Cummings will start with Stokes.
    We have yet to see a goal threat from Dagnell.
    Keatings and Malonga have both already shown that they are not as prolific as Jason.

    I think Cummings tended to try to beat one too many defenders today, but did well in being positive and at least beating a couple before the point where he should have passed! Laid on goal for Mcginn as well IIRC.

    Yep, I agree with that. Some poor decision making but showed great desire and urgency from the off and set a good tone for the way the match panned out.

    Personally I doubt if AS would last a full 90mins. He was brought on at the right time today and I think it will be the same next week.

    Cummings made the wrong decision quite a few times, trying to take players on instead of shooting/passing and vice versa. But drop him? No chance he's one of the few players we have with the ability to pick the ball up and force the issue.

    He might not have scored today, but when did he last go two games without a goal? JC starts every week unless injured imo.

    Hahaha one poor game and people want him dropped. Unreal

    I think for the first time we may now have players that could form a front two partnership Exactly what the best pairing is am not sure even Stubbs will know this for certain so we may see him play different combinations during games?Exciting times Ahead
    Malonga was the player to lose out today and if he is going to be fifth choice striker can see him being unhappy about that so if a bid did come in for him he could move on ,but would still like to keep him as on his day he offers something different

    I don't understand your dislike for our top scorer, it's evident on every thread.

    United we stand here....

    I think he will be dropped. 2 games he's missed opportunities good strikers would score in. He'll come back in, but jase still clearly has much to learn.

    If anyone is dropped it'll be Dom - cup game needs everyone firing, last few games even when he scored he's languid - Dom won't start next week it's a given. I'd start same 3 today - can't ask for a better bench than Dom, Stokes and Keatings.

    He also scored in one of those games. Only on here could we suggest the answer to our goalscoaring problems would be to drop the only guy who has consistently scored goals for 2 seasons

    Good substitutions ,and despite a VERY poor defensive tackle resulting in the loss of a goal,the team otherwise worked their socks off .The lack of a cutting edge was evident ,but when we went direct and at pace we showed what we all know, we can win and win well......keep that pace and drive going and we will have little to worry about....
    It was a shame we were on tender hooks after that silly free kick ,but the heads never went down and Keatings and Stokes looked the part as a link up duo....No fault re Cummings just still learning his trade and making some errors in decision making perhaps..but that is how you learn..he is an asset .

    As the manager said after the game he has been playing keatings out of position ...I believe he has lots to offer if played up front through the middle ....you never know he may well be the perfect foil for stokes

    He won't because he doesn't score as many goals as Cummings

    If Stokes has a good week training, double sessions etc then I can see Stubbs taking a calculated risk with him for first 60 mins and then replace with Dagnall. Cummings is out top scorer by a mile and has movement and energy. He is a certain starter in my opinion.

    Given St Johnstone have drawn two and lost four of last 6 games, scoring one....I would say us starting with Stokes would make them seriously worried!!

    Regardless he is 100% starting against the gimps from across the road and he will run riot against that defence!
