Gordon

Smith Haring Kingsley

Atkinson Devlin Halliday Cochrane

Forrest Shankland McKay

 

How I read it. Don't think Atkinson is trusted in a back 4.

 

Could also be:

Smith Kingsley Cochrane

Atkinson Devlin Haring Halliday

Forrest Shankland McKay

Might be Devlin in the 10, just slightly higher than Haliday and Haring. 

 

 


Its Halliday. Unfortunately.

 

Robbie’s obsession with him is unhealthy.

Just filler - we cant currently fill our bench as we didn't sign enough players this summer.

We have to have 3 goalies on the bench in Europe.

Gonna need that bite and guile tonight. 

 

We're playing a technically superior team tonight 

 

He's also got a goal in him now and then.

I doubt it's got much to do with Atkinson not being trusted, more that we're facing an extremely potent side with 2 of our best central defenders out.

If you want to discuss the finer details around the Queen’s health then please take it to The Shed!!

 

Thanks


Bit unfair deleting my post - you put this up while I was writing it. Never saw it until afterwards! Ah well.

When Smith was injured in the derby we changed to a back 5 instead of just swapping Atkinson on in the 4. I could be wrong but I didn't see tonight's 11 as a back 4 at first glance.

Why the **** do we have 2 keepers on the bench? Surely put a youngster on there. If only for the experience.

 

Our entire available squad is either in the line-up or on the bench. There are 10 subs.

Some team they’ve got mind …. International caps and previous big clubs all over the place. I hadn’t even heard of them until we drew them in this competition :lol:

Red card 🤷🏻‍♂️

Aye Ofc.

343 with not one of the back 3 in their first choice position.

 

Aye, should have wheeled out Rowles and Halkett. 

 

Smith is perfectly fine at ch, some argue very strong. 

Kingsley has played ch for 2 seasons now. 

 

Looks like a 4231 as well. 

 

Calm yourself to a panic.

Gone for experience tonight. Not risking either Neilson or Sibbick which I personally think is the right decision. Halkett and Rowles are huge losses for us. Need McKay and Forrest to really step up for us attacking wise tonight.

Got to take whatever chances we get early on to get anything from this game. 

 

Cant help but think the constant chopping and changing isn't helping but fully behind the boys!!

I’m glad it’s no a square go we’re having with them, they look like pretty menacing. Hearts have been surprising me for 40yrs (in good a bad ways). We might just do ourselves proud tonight.

Which he has neither imo but that’s another debate for another day. For me it’s incredible that Halliday is starting games for us in Europe let alone in attacking midfield.

More the point that Kingsley is a LCH being asked to play central.

Unless it's a 4 at the back. 

 

Our 2 middle chi's are out injured.

Atkinson!! After his recent form why on earth is he anywhere near the starting line up. 


Because our management rate him highly and he’s going to be a member of our first team for the next couple of years at a minimum. He’s got loads of potential if people get behind him and support his development.

Oh aye. Maybe more chance of me scoring... :lol:
