Walter Bishop Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 This is a free hit. No expectations to win, nobody should have. Nothing to lose, attack and press from the first whistle and see where it takes us. They are missing Morelos and Tavernier aswell which is a plus.

Sometimes ceding the space wide and saying "ok, we can deal with any ball you put in the box" can work. Think we did it more or less in the 1-1 game at Tynie and it worked by and large. We just didn't close down out wide. Rangers can be quite good at threading we balls in rather than crossing though, so would be a risk. Who knows!!! Hopefully Oor Dan!

Bazzas right boot Posted January 23, 2020 Author Share Posted January 23, 2020 1 hour ago, TheBigO said: I'm on Smiffy's train for this one! Last night begone. Missing some key players, bit of ring rust for others, and the type of game we've been losing, frankly. I nearly posted yesterday but didn't that I had a wee sneaky we'd draw in Dingwall then pump the rangers. Decision for Stendel is what to do with Moore and Henderson, in a way. I think they've come in, done well, but I think they need to not be relied on when they're in attacking positions and we're not scoring enough in the league. I'd go like this. Joel Clare Souttar Halkett Hickey Smith Irving Donis Meshino Washington Naismith Bobby, Dika, Ben, Damour, Uche, Bozanic, Henderson/Walker Hugely unfair on Moore, I know. And this also assumes all fit. My biggest worry here is Clare against Kent and Barisic. Tempting to have him replace Washington, move Smith to RB and have Damour play (he did well against Celtic, and it's a similar task at hand). Have Naismith up top instead of Washington, so a bit of pressure off him but he can use his pace and power from deeper. Naisy leads the line superbly. We don't see training, so its so hard to say who should start. Has Walker been ripping it up all of a sudden? Had Donis clicked? Is Meshino all over the joint? We don't know these things of course. Bit unfair on rangers that formation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re bottom of the league and we’re at home. We have to stop this attitude it’s whats got us here too many free hits and so called easy games. They have to start believing they can take on anyone and no one is coming to tynecastle and getting it easy. We have to go for the 3 points in a controlled determined manor with a belief we can win the game. We have everything to lose! We keep losing and we lose our place in the league. Every home game is vital. Our away form has always been dreadful for a club like ours but no one got it easy at our place we need at an absolute minimum tynecastle to be a fortress again.

JFK-1 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 (edited) I don't think too much should be read into Morelos being missing when you consider what will be replacing him. Jermain Defoe is hardly lesser quality and does in fact have 12 league goals the same as Morelos with less time played. Give him just a sight of goal in or around the box and he will quickly put it away with one touch. Might be that the most significant absentee for them is Tavernier. Flanagan will be the replacement and while he's solid defensively he isn't the attacking force Tavernier represents.

For me their overall strategy is built around their full backs Tavernier and Barisic bombing up and down the wings firing in quality crosses. One of them missing upsets that.

Hearts1975 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Nothing to lose. Not expected to win. I’ll go out on a limb here but I think we could nick something from this game. With Morelia being suspended that will weaken their overall attack 2-1 Hearts (Meshino and Naisy) we just need to go to go out and have a real go at them. This one is about the performance.

Take a look at his goal from last night as an example. Note that the box is packed with St Mirren players all around him and all he needs is a single touch to inflict the damage.
