davemclaren Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 I think they will score ( they look quick and dangerous on the break ) so we’ll need to score at least two. Getting the balance between attack and defence will be key on the night. Looking forward to it. Six years is too long without a European match.

Only possible thing would be Grant or Haring, but I think we want Pete's calming influence and physical presence both boxes. Grant, GMS, Gino and Natty all on the bench. Tempting to choose Natty ahead of Smith, but I think that forward 4 plus Cochrane and Devlin gives us enough legs, and Smith can drop in to make a 3 at back and let Cochrane push as well. It might be better to finish with that MF onwards, but defence has to be as strong as it can; we lose a goal quickly and we're in big trouble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cade Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Zurich could only draw 1-1 away from home in their 5th league game this weekend. They remain rooted to the bottom of the table with two draws and three defeats. Get at them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we want Grant on I would put him on in place of Boyce and then bring Boyce off the bench. Probably better to start with Boyce though and bring on Grant for fresh legs if we need to protect a lead.

As of the end of last year they're 14th (between Belgium and Greece) and Scotland are 9th. Zurich's own coefficient is pretty shit, but that's because they've only been in Europe one of the past 5 seasons before this one, but that's a fair bit better than us of course, who have no coefficient points of our own.

Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 (edited) Our coefficient being higher than theirs is meaningless.
