Dundee United vs St Johnstone - 27/09/14


Recommended Posts

If we can come away with a point from this il be pleasantly happy at the moment.

Adam Morgan hasn't impressed me at all, if only we could persuade him to grow his hair long and mumble his way through an interview then we may have a chance. United would shit themselves at the sight of the Stevie May rebirth.

Much more confident going into this than any Saints game last season. May battered our centre backs about every time last year, but we've got a new pair, and he's gone. In fact, all Saints strikers are gone, for one reason or another.

1-0 win to United, Fojut from a corner.

Huh, wrong match. Maybe he'll do it again ;):lol:

Managed to beat Aberdeen who had the better of us all last season so onwards to see if we can finally beat bloody St J. (Minus fluke 4-0 at start)

That was no fluke, you were miles better than us that day, but just used the same system 4 more times against us which helped us win all the remaining games that season

New season, new teams and Dundee United have to be heavy favourites to win this game.

Tough balance for the manager to strike on Saturday as the centre forward has been left isolated in our last two league games but the lack of involvement for Morgan on Tuesday night makes starting him a big risk. Surely any new signing won't be fit enough to start? If Brown returns then him for Graham is an obvious switch but it leaves you worrying about getting men forward to support O'Halloran, who himself isn't ideal for that lone striker role. We would need to pass and retain the ball in a better manner than we've displayed recently.

Croft was better on Tuesday though and I think he probably needs to stick with Lappin to get him up to speed as he simply needs games to do that. No real preference over whether he goes with Miller or Wright in defence for this one either. I know he has his detractors but pretty happy with what Gary Miller offers when he plays and the argument is definitely there that Mackay is getting closer to having to move in one. He's still doing fine but don't think his level of performance is where it was in his first few seasons with us.

United will be massively fired up for this after what happened last season but hopefully the two derbies will have tempered their determination slightly with them being bigger games. Would take a point right now but we don't draw many domestic games (8/54) under Tommy Wright so not too confident of taking anything.

Quite excited for this the closer it comes tbh, have to assume we rested Fraser Wright so he could play here, probably the right choice considering the aerial threat United now pose. Wouldn't honestly mind O'Halloran up front on his own, his pace alone could cause problems and force a mistake from the defence.

Mannus

Mackay - Anderson - Wright - Easton

Brown

Croft - Davidson - Millar - Lappin

O'Halloran

Would be as good as we could do tbh, have to try and take control of the midfield and get Croft and Muzz up quickly to help Moe. I'm struggling to remember being there when we've won at Tannadice, seen numerous losses right enough, but missed the May "Squiggler" night.

Bitches v Saints, judging by last night must be Saints easiest three points of the season. United with 11 men yesterday barely matched 9 men Dundee at the end although Dees should have had game done and dusted after 35 minutes. 11V 11 A stroll for the Dees.

Did you not get your methadone today? Never mind the chemist will be open in a few hours.
