On STV news that John McGinn is back to full training and could be available for Dundee United game!
They interviewed Neil Lennon and he said the only worry was Fyvie, and Rockie was back in training also.
Seems it's all coming together nicely for the long run in!!!

Would be a big boost but with Commons in the team for this game at least no need to take any undue risks IMO.

In for Shinnie if ready, think he'll come good eventually and being dropped may do him good.

Are you after Pedant of the Year Award?
Of course he had an injury. Hence the op.
I would always err on the side of caution with a players health but it would be great to see him tomorrow.

If the medical team and the player think he's fit enough to start tomorrow, then get him in.

Mcginn will play tomorrow I reckon. However it will probably be at the expense of Martin, not shinnie

I don't think I'd start with McGinn yet, start him on the bench and great impact sub to come on if we're struggling.

Shinnie is class, talented lad who makes things happen.

Pleasantly surprised.
Watching him training at Falkirk, he didn't give the impression he was up to speed so good news.

Wouldn't love to see John back and I think he's the kind of player that can slip back into the team easier than others so expect him to start.
I'm interested to see the formation we'll play. Once Fyvie is back we are really blessed with some amazing options in midfield. But I still worry we're unbalanced. Humphreys seems like a great signing but presuming he starts on the right, how will the rest of our midfield take shape?
We still lack a natural left midfielder so I wonder if we'll go 4-4-2 with someone (McGinn?) out of position on the left and Commons and McGeouch in the middle.

I concur!!!
Has a very decent footballing ability and has sometimes been the only forward thinking midfielder when Fyvie and SJM have been out of action. I like him a lot.

Lennon stated that McGinn needed op to clean out a build up of calcified tissue leading to a lot of pain. He should be back to 100% now he does not need to protect the painful area any more, so we will get the old John McGinn back again!

Personally I wouldn't chuck McGinn straight in .... has he even kicked a ball in anger since his operation? The same with Humphrey, how many games has he played this season?
Both on the bench for me and put them on if things aint going our way.

if there is a decision to drop someone and bring either McGinn or Humphreys in mine would be Shinnie. I liked the look of him when he came on as sub against the Buddies, and scored iirc. he's faded a bit although he controls the ball well. the problem for me is that he can hover around the 18yd box without the final drive, so drop him and bring in a natural and fast right sided player, Humphreys at least to start. don't think United would like someone with speed tearing down that side
