Assuming Jackson and Newell have been brought in as starters i would guess our strongest team is looking like this:
________________Marciano
Gray______Jackson______Hanlon_____Stevenson
_______Mallan____Allan_____Newell
Boyle_____________________________Horgan
________________Kamberi
Second 11
________________Dabrowski
Whittaker___McGregor___Porteous___Mackie
__??????_____Slivka___Murray______??????
______________Shaw____??????
Not looking too bad but still work to be done in adding some robustness to that midfield and more firepower and pace so we aren't absolutely snookered by injuries or lack of options to replace out of form players.
Should be enough to get us through the Betfred cup group stages but would feel much happier with another two or three in the door before then.
Results 1 to 16 of 16

We certainly look well covered at the back.. we could really do with getting a defensive midfielder sorted.
I don't think Newell will play in the centre. I'd expect as many as 5/6 new players to come in before the window closese.
GK
CDM
Omeonga
Winger
Striker x2

Given the noises by Hibs and PH I am confident we will get McNulty and Omeonga.
That would be 5 new signings.
I still think we will see:-
GK
Defensive Midfielder
Full back (cover)
Striker (more physical)
If Slivka and Marciano leave then replacements x 2

Was there not strong rumours about a dutch midfielder coming in? An absolutely unit of a guy.
Sure it was a supposed done deal just waiting for him to return from his holidays

I think we will get the benefit of the players having a good rest. Last year we were back in training really quickly.

I'd hope to see us resolve our problem with scoring goals.
The highest scorer in league games was Kamberi, with eight.

Add a RB to that list as Whittaker will be a liability in that possession if he is the cover for Gray.

Highlights the need for legs and someone who can actually tackle in centre mid.
Omeonga and McNulty would be good signing but we can’t just rely on them. Would need another striker and defensive mid even if they come in.
Wouldn’t surprise me if we announce another signing today as it’s the day before (not in the know, just a hunch).

Competitive games start pretty much the same time.
