Gambo Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Should be a very comfortable victory. Surely a game we could take a gamble and play 2 up front or is that a bit extreme? Hopefully we wont take our foot of the gas with 40mins to go and instead get stuck in for 90mins and let the players build confidence before next week.

All roads lead to Gorgie Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 I'll go for 3-1. Walker, Wighton and Lee. That sounds like a team of solicitors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copa-mundial Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Yes today's game has to be won. I think if it's comfortable after 45 to 60 minutes. The game will slow dramatically, with one eye firmly on next Sunday. Could be very similar to the Alloa home game a few weeks back. The win keeps us top. No injury concerns for next week. Job done!

Don't think we'll go 2 up but that doesn't mean lack of ambition. It's about getting players in box. 433/451/4231 can do that well enough. A 442 can be a very defensive setup if you want it to be. In a way, other than maybe the the 3 or 4 at the back, formations are a bit moot. I'd guess a lot of coaches rarely say "were playing 442 today lads" like they did in my day. It's still the currency I work in, but you know what I mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we’ve probably been setting up for the Cup Final since we beat Hibs in the Semi, which would explain why the focus has been on being far more solid than we need to be in this division.

Ethan Hunt Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 If we don’t score at least 3 against a team who have conceded 14 goals in 6 games then I’ll be disappointed.

Agreed when you look at the league Arbroath and Alloa are below them. We struggled v Arbroath and got beat by Alloa.
