Granny Danger Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Both teams in poor form and bizarrely a win for us could see us going fourth if Hibs drop points against Sevco. I’m reluctant to name a starting XI but think the tactics maybe more important than the personnel. Hopefully Freeman back and I’d like to see Niskanen start but that only matters if we decide to drop the ‘20 passes to get into the opposition half’ approach. Imagine Watt will be up for this, great game for him to score his first goal in a Tangerine shirt. Surely it must be an improvement on our performances against Dundee and St Johnstone? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming he's going to rejoin Motherwell after realising hes made a massive mistake. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorky Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I’m pretty hopeful we can get something from this, a heavy defeat today but Celtic would have beaten any team on that form. The new guy up front looks very promising and hopefully Tierney gets a start. I know people expect Watt to score but he’s sure to hold back after already realising what a huge mistake he’s made. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'WellDel Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Efford in for Van Veen. Tierney in for, well anyone. We really need to take something from this to get our top 6/European aspirations back on track, and obvs to get it right up that guy off of Twitch that used to play for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Patterson Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) It'll be good for this game to answer the age-old question - What happens when a stoppable force meets a very movable object? Starting Niskanen is a must - would like to see us going back to Back Four - the 3/5 really hasn't helped us going forward. Pawlett needs dropped - but he won't be. This line-up please: Siegrist Smith Edwards Graham McMann Levitt Harkes Mochrie Clark Niskanen Watt Edited February 6, 2022 by Ray Patterson RB injured 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I have it in my head that we always do well against United in midweek games and lose to them on Saturdays. We really need a win here though, big test of this squad's bouncebackability. 2-0 us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tannadeechee Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) I'll be there on Wednesday, after all you can't boo or criticise if your not there!! Threatening the young lad that if he doesn't behave he's having to use his season ticket and sit through another soul destrying 90minutes. All seriousness, not looking forward to this at all as the evidence does not suggest we'll suddenly revert back to being purposeful on the ball or moving it quickly. The chances of us scoring aren't good. Interestingly we have scored more points over the last five games than Motherwell (5 v 2), although god.knows how with the standard of play. 0-0 bore-fest Edited February 6, 2022 by Tannadeechee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ropy Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I am going all in on this one, up in the afternoon, something to eat and a few drinks then a Premier Inn stay. Alexander should have seen enough recently to know what works and what doesn’t. A decent performance should see a victory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn Seemann Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 So we could either be 4th or 9th or anything in between on Wednesday night. My money is on 9th. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 What was that mad formation we won 3-0 at Tannadice with once? The one McGhee apparently seen in a dream? 3-2-3-2 or something? I'm anticipating similar from Alexander. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
