Debut 4 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 1 hour ago, Noah Claypole said: The link up play between Meshino and Uche is the key to success. The wee man looked feisty enough against Motherwell to put the Big man in his place. Hold up the ball and lay it off. We're going to smash them, I can feel it in my Water. Agree. May finally have found the man to play off Uche. His workrate is superb, he always wants the ball and is always on the move. Two players with styles completely opposite to each other but one understanding what the other needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His workrate is superb, he always wants the ball and is always on the move. Two players with styles completely opposite to each other but one understanding what the other needs. There was certainly a change in Uche's game v Motherwell, he also looked a lot fitter to me. He's definitely being coached to change his style and stayed on his feet a lot more. A little more intelligence in his play with a nippy wee ball player picking up the spaces he creates could be very good indeed, especially with Naismith on the pitch finding the gaps and playing that clever ball through.

MaskedMarauder Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 While it’s nice to hear team selections in advance I think we should really be doing more to stop leaks coming out. This is the 3rd time this season already I’ve been told the team the day before a game. It also happened numerous times last year and also on the eve of the cup final. Hibs/Heckingbottom probably won’t be wise enough to do anything about it if they know, but other managers can easily use this info to their advantage. Please try keep it to yourselves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazzas right boot Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 2 hours ago, OTT said: Levein needs 3 points. A derby win will always buy time as long as he follows it up. Wins this and wedensday, he'll have bought himself at least the first quarter of gamez and if we win them two, momentum and confidence should follow. Big if tho.

Rudy T Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 41 minutes ago, Zlatanable said: What are you two on about? Zlamal, then Pereira, he got injured, so Doyle. Smith at RB, then he got injured. Halkett/Souttar , Berra, then Souttar got injured Hickey and White, then White got injured after Hickey got sent off Haring has been out for a while, so we brought in Damour and Whelan, and Irving made a strong start, so Whelan and Irving. We have pretty much decided on 4-2-3-1, and we used the LC group stage to try younger players. Then settled on Naismith, Mulraney, Walker, Clare and looking at Morrison coming back from injury. But Naismith is still to recover from injury, Walker got injured, and we brought in Meshino. We brought in Washington to give us options. We have Uche, Washington with MacLean, with Keena. But Washington got injured. What about White at left back and hickey at right back, Euan Henderson? MacLean? Brandon? We played 4231 v Hamilton 442 v Motherwell so we’ve definitely not settled on any formation and throw in randoms every other game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudy T Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 2 minutes ago, Zlatanable said: You should be manager. Just name a season-long squad of 11. Shave their heads, tattoo numbers on their heads. So now you realise you’re wrong we do not stick to a formation and we change personnel every game, and that’s not this seasons problem it’s been going on for a year... even accounting for injuries we completely reshuffle every time what happened to the 2 players for every position? Hickey to right back was the latest stroke of genius when we had two players on the bench who both play right back. Guess what happened... a right back came on as sub. If you think there’s any sort of formation and/or selection consistency then you’ve not been watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwidoug Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 An advantage we have, one of many, is that Hecky has to guess the line up and formation. He won't have a clue about the line-up or formation whereas we will be pretty sure about theirs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sagan Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Prediction: Heart and Head both say 3-2 to us. But, After listening to levein bang on about mistakes at the back... I'm slightly concerned that he's going to play with an 8 man defence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mulraney isn’t doing enough. Time for the bench and come on as sub with his pace if required. Mentality is what it’s about tomorrow and I think that’s the strongest we’ve got in that respect. I also think those ten outfield players won’t hide and will always show for the ball or put themselves into the mix when we don’t have the ball.
