Maynards Wine Gums Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 DM won't change the defence so no point discussing that but maybe we should drop Tansey. Lewis Logan O'Connor Reynolds Considine Shinnie McLean Stewart Christie GMS Shockley Link to comment
fine-n-dandy Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 He has dropped Rooney in Europa games in past, so he will likely do so again. Guess he had to play him as he was scoring in the easy preseason games & 'should' have been closest to fitness/match sharpness of all the strikers we have but as we witnessed last night that really didn't pay off. Maynard given the nod next week for me. Even though this side were credited with great defending in last round, I don't think they are THAT great at the back. We WILL SCORE THERE Link to comment
dj_bollocks Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 There is no way DMc can have O'C starting in defence. He'll be fine against the Killie's and Hamilton's of this world but against better teams he's going to get found out and Reynolds is fucking flappy bird without a partner that he works well with... One thing's for sure whatever the pairing is next week there'll will be quite a few tight sphincter's when they press forward... Mods might I request a "shiteing it" emoji/emoticon thingummyjig...

fifered Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Temptation to drop Shinnie into left back but not sure mcinnes will do that. I think he'll go with the same team with the exception of Stewart in for Rooney. Rooney was hopeless yesterday, outside the box he just isn't good enough v these better teams. Stockley hold up play is way better but I just couldn't trust him not to get sent off. As bad as mclean was he'll not be dropped. I can certainly see us scoring. Christie and GMS could cause them real problems. I worry about us getting hit down the wings if they don't track back though. Link to comment

Scotty_Toronto Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 We have to score so lets do it early. Lewis Logan Considine Reynolds Shinnie Tansey McLean Wright Christie GMS Stockley ------------------------- Logan and Shinnie can double as wingbacks. Lots of creativity from McLean and Christie, with Stockley the big target for the crosses from Wright and GMS. Stewart could come on for Wright. Rooney or Maynard on for Stockley. O'Connor on for GMS if we can get a second over there. I think Stockley will start. UP AND AT THEM Link to comment

fine-n-dandy Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Could be a pretty decent game this return leg (provided these cunts don't fkn cheat & dive the whole game to try & time waste/get players sent off) as both sides are pretty decentgoing forward & are pretty weak at the back. Important thing for us is not to lose faith if we don't score early. Hell even if they score early it shouldn't bother us tooooooo much, as regardless, we are most likely going to need at least two goals to go through anyway. As I very much doubt our defence will keep a clean sheet. Provided this is not ruined by ref (or them through unsporting shite) then there is very little chance of this being a 0-0 game Link to comment

DonTillIDie Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 LewisLogan Reynolds Considine ShinnieChristie McLean Tansey Mackay-StevenMaynardRooney If we're having success down the wings then we could effectively go 4-4-2. If we're not then Maynard could maybe drop back a little and link up to help the midfield to get crosses in to Rooney and himself if he can turn round and get himself in the box to make the most of any crosses and second balls. I presume Maynard is fairly quick so hopefully this shouldn't be too hard if he has a good game. Basically we would need Rooney and Maynard to be on the same page and close enough to each other most of the time so they can link up. Unfortunately Stockley is a bit of a risk when it comes to the refereeing. It's not his fault and I feel sorry for him some of the time, but it's sad to say that some European referees would be conned by the antics of defenders falling to the floor under any challenge from him, especially at their home ground. If things aren't working out up front, then sub whoever is having a hard time with Stewart or Stockley. Stockley if you feel brave or have slipped the ref £50 beforehand! Link to comment
V for Vendetta Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 We tried 442 in the last game and it really didn't work. Dinosaur tactical approach, should only be for the odd domestic game where opponents are equally tactically naive. Link to comment
