sjh1874 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Robbie presser will be. "Killie are a good team. really strong at home, expect a real tough game, we will need to be at it" As many men behind the ball as possible. Sideways passing only. No expansive, aggressive football allowed, leave the unlucky striker isolated and pray for a result. Outcome. Lose another crap and lazy set piece/cross ball goal. Panic, run about without shape or structure and ultimately lose. Hearts won't score so the very best we can hope for is 0-0. I really wish it wasn't so.

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Big game for us, suspect it will be freshened as much as it can be, win really needed with 2 more difficult league games to follow Gordon Atkinson Neilson Kingsley Cochrane (default defence) Kio Haring Grant Forrest Humphrys McKay Nice flat surface and big pitch, cut out individual errors and show some class in final third, we should win.

We may struggle. 1 hour ago, Sherbet said: Got to remember we are playing against a team with a lower budget I'm not sure how much of a factor that is. Killie are just off a good win; they have struggled so far but they will be feeling good about themselves just now. 1 hour ago, Gorgierools said: C Smith naybe alongside Kio in the middle? Or Pollock. I'm pretty sure either of these kids will show more spirit than anyone did last night. Maybe it's time to gee up some of the others by giving the youngsters a chance. Certainly I can't see Pollock or Smith being worse than Kio and Grant recently. There's a huge rivalry between Ayr United and Killie and given their histories I would be surprised if Forrest and Shankland don't start. 1 hour ago, PapaShango said: Massive game especially with the next 3 after this being really difficult. Not sure I can even stomach the Celtic game if we have us set up to just sit off them like we’ve done in every big game this season. Growing tired of the crap tactics we have deployed almost all season. I've already decided to give that game a miss, I'm going to see Girl from The North Country in the Playhouse instead.

Captain Canada Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I'd go for something like this: Gordon Atkinson Sibbick Kingsley Cochrane Haring Kio Snodgrass C. Smith Gino Humphrys I don't think McKay, Shankland or Neilson should start based on recent form. I'm hoping Kio will improve when he's up to speed a bit more. Grant has been disappointing so far. Humphrys is able to win free kicks, hold the ball up and take people on so is a different option to Shankland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feej Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 We couldn't beat them at home, since then our form has got worse and we struggle to win away anyway so I'm going for a narrow defeat.

PapaShango Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Snodgrass to come in if fit.

TheBigO Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Been thinking loads about this one and just can't decide. I think perhaps Haring filling in at CH makes most sense really. Let's at the very least get some experience back there, no? Take a bit of pressure off Lewis and/or Toby. I'd also like to see us play 3 in midfield more. Our strongest area of the park at present is our midfield, perhaps wing, let's utilise the shit out of that - focus on our strengths more, you know. Gordon Natty Haring Kingsley Cochrane Grant Kio Snoddy Gino Humphrys Forrest Gino and Hump can switch and swap central and wide. Get Connor Smith on the park at some point, let Shanks and McKay have a go at them later in the game.... or Gordon Neilson Haring Kingsley Natty Grant Kio Snoddy Cochrane Gino Humphys Could also play back 3 of Haring Kingsley Cochrane with GMS wide left, or even Natty wide left and Forrest wide right. I just feel we need to change something. Not tinkering as such, but a new shape which we ride out until the break. As I say, we're OK for midfielders, so that central three and build round it. Let them do defending and attacking, let them be mobile, instead of the very sectioned defence-midfield-attack I kind of see us playing. And by god, can we dispese with the bye kicks. See if it's on, if it isn't up the park we go. Fiorentina weren't shy about playing long byes and keepers kicks. It's not archaic. Trying to pass out when all we do is end up putting our FBs in tricky positions is just daft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr ewing Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 2 hours ago, Bauld said: No I'm relying on us playing teams that are more our current level and the sort we would expect to beat. We have quality in our team relative to our level. We got pulled apart by Colak at rangers. They spent about 4m or more to get him in and he's a goalscorer. Fiorentina had Jovic back in the side and he dragged our defence to pieces. He'd only played 15 mins last weekend. You could see by his vision and movement alone why he was once a 60m player. Simply put we are ****ing miles away from that and we always will be till the sun burns out and the planets long gone. But we aren't below going to Kilmarnock and getting a result. That's where our level is. Beating shite like that and getting third place back. I'm afraid we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portobellojambo1 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) Kilmarnock this weekend, up at Pittodrie the following weekend, then home to Celtic before the trip up to Dingwall at the end of the month. Will be at them all but I'm genuinely not sure we are going to pick up many points from this group of fixtures and the break for thr World Cup can't come quick enough given how we are playing ar the moment and the limitations of the squad when one or two injuries pop up.
