Kyle Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Be interesting to see the back line for this. If Wright isn't back at centre half, it probably indicates he's barely going to feature this season. Think MacKay will stay as one of the centre half, it's a case of who partners him. Midfield 4 pick themselves and Cummins is surely a certainty. Mannus Joe MacKay Mckay Easton O'Hallaron Davidson Millar Craig Cummins Sutton ....would be my preference, but unlikely Wotherspoon, MacLean and Scobbie will all misplace those incriminating pictures. I'd be happy to go with that. With Ainsworth playing, Craig HAS to stick to his position. We can't afford to have Easton left alone up against that speedy fecker. I think Maclean played well on Saturday passed tbh - wouldn't mind him retaining his spot. I know I'm a Scobbie hater etc etc, but he has to be dropped on Saturday. He's been utter horse shit this season so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Heliums Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Mannus Joe MacKay Mckay Easton O'Hallaron Davidson Millar Craig Cummins Sutton ....would be my preference, but unlikely Wotherspoon, MacLean and Scobbie will all misplace those incriminating pictures. I'd say that team is a stick on. He can't leave Scobbie in again - for his own good - and Mackay will be in the team, but is too slow for right-back. Sutton will come back against his old team. You can almost pick the subs too. Wotherspoon (if fit)/Lappin (otherwise) will sub for an ineffective Craig; MacLean will come on for Sutton to little effect. And if we're losing with 10 minutes left he'll finally let Kane on the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widge Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I'm more curious as to who would win a foot race between Ainsworth and O'Halloran? Either way I've got more faith in Easton stopping Ainsworth than I would Hammell with O'Halloran for some reason. That's going to be key in my eyes. I also think we should be winning the midfield battle. Whilst Lasley is still decent, his legs are going and Millar is a very similar player, but with Davidson next to him we still have that added physical presence and power and really should be looking to drive over teams more.

Geedub-MFC Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 John Sutton will score. This is a guarantee.I hope he does the big handsome b*****d. But only if we score two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisGRAEME Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 John Sutton will score. This is a guarantee. Is it? There was always an insistence he'd score against us for Hearts, and did what, once? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you leave Easton as exposed as he was in your game vs us against a proper pacy winger he could be fucked. If I remember right Phil fucking Roberts gave him a roasting last year due to pace.

The Real Saints Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 This week's match programme will include an exclusive interview with John Sutton. He speaks very fondly of his time at Motherwell, so hopefully a few away fans will pick up a programme on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widge Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 What about Marvin? Is he faster than Ainsworth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crilly Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 He's fast but not as fast as Ainsworth. If, as you say, Easton cuts out Ainsworth; O'Halloran roasts Hammell; Davidson & Millar dominate central midfield, what would your advice be to Ian Baraclough? Is there any weakness at all in the Saints side that could be exploited by Well or is that just not possible or likely? The only other option seemingly open to us would be the long ball, for which we are just not suited. I can see a pretty fruitless journey to Perth for us. Still lets hope the pies are decent.

RandomGuy. Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Attack us early, put pressure on the centre halfs and counter attack at pace. Youll be guaranteed numerous chances like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Based on the fact we'll apparently have a new winger for this, I'll go.. Mannus Shaughnessy - Mackay - McKay - Easton Aird - Millar - Davidson - Craig O'Halloran - Cummins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloPerth Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Surely can't move O'Halloran from the wing?!! He should be the first name on the team sheet at the minute in the position he's been excelling at, the rest should be added in from there. Two M(a)ckays in centre defence would be worth a look.. Think it will be same as last weekend though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
