Sting777 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Really a must win game for both. We need a win desperately and County will be wanting to kick on after a half decent result yesterday. Think we will sneak it 2-1 if Archie gets his head sorted and puts out our best team!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P45 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I hope Seabourne is back. We only seem to get points when he is playing. We'll probably gift a victory to County. It's what we do. #jaggiesvstaggies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rednyella Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 It'll come down to who wants it more. As a jags fan that scares me as our players don't look like they want to be in the premier league. We need two wins versus County but I think we'll get very little. Desperately hope I'm wrong.

Begbie Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Hope county will replace Boyd with either Burgess or Meite because as much as I love him he was very poor against 'well. Would also prefer Filip Kiss in centre midfield to either Woods or Irvine. Would play 442 again because that was the first time I've watched county this season where we've made the ball stick up-front, our loan striker is always isolated when we play 451. Boyce excelled playing with a partner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staggy4life Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Starting 4-4-2 again would be too risky so I'd play 4-5-1 in this match. Meite in for Boyd, and Kiss in for Curran. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Boyd will get ragdolled by Lyle Taylor so hopefully he drops out for Burgess (or Meite but I don't think he'll be fit enough to start just yet). I'd go: Brown Fraser Quinn Burgess Reckord Irvine Kiss Woods Gardyne De Vita Boyce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingdong1929 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Agree re-Boyd. Feel bad dropping him, but not sure its his kind of game. Given how Partick play, and given Irvine's lack of positioning, I'd also swap Irvine for Palazuelos. I think centre-mid is going to be key, we really don't want big spaces between the lines. Brown Fraser Quinn Burgess/Meite Reckord Kiss Palazuelos Woods Gardyne De Vita Boyce Could also have Palazuelos and Kiss the deep pair, with Woods pushed forward in a 4-2-3-1 ? I'm wary 4-4-2 with a pairing of Irvine and Woods again will likely see us need at least 3 goals again... as good as I'm reading we were on Saturday, few teams will be as bad against us as Motherwell were.

Pie Of The Month Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I wouldn't be so sure Taylor starts this one. We need to wait until Archie draws names out of a hat after putting Osman and Bannigan's names down on the teamsheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunglebonce Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I'm looking forward to "Boring, Boring County" again, it's been too long. If County play the way they did against Motherwell - quick football, balls into channels, hassling defenders - it won't be too long into the game. DD might think that County played good on Saturday but he wasn't there. Some champagne moments don't mask the fact that they were just slightly better than the worst team in the top flight, some individual performances proving the exception.

Trying to be positive, and say 'good' as relative to previous performances, which were horrendous. But it seems more believable that we won by being less shite than 'Well, rather than actually being good. Lyle Taylor will be furious at your last sentence.

P45 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I'm looking forward to "Boring, Boring County" again, it's been too long. Other managers largely know how we play now and how to stop us so we've had a lot of problems breaking down any kind of defence recently, even St Mirren and Motherwell, so the classic song will happen. If McIntyre can get County decently set up at the back and midfield then you're more than half the way to a positive result as there's a very good chance we won't even get a shot at goal. Archibald v McIntyre. A meeting of great tactical minds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Of The Month Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 "Boring Boring Thistle" is more likely considering the recent change of style of play to hoofing it long without anyone up front having a clue what's happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
