liam11 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 (edited) Clark Smith Sibbick Rowles Cochrane Devlin Snodgrass Ginnelly Grant McKay Shankland Fed up with the 3-4-3, the complete lack of midfield is the reason why a lot of our performances overall are poor. I’d be bold and bench the likes of Kingsley and Hill, rather than shuffle to accommodate them. Not strictly two holding mids as Devlin will wander to hunt down the ball. Gives Grant a fair shot in his natural position, and him occupying that space should see space open up elsewhere for McKay. Finally you’ve got less need for Shankland to be dropping into his own half all the time. 20 goal striker this season get him up top for **** sake!

karipidis Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I think Kio will start if Devlin is not fit, appears to be doing a bit of media and he did pretty well when he came on against Rangers.

jambopilms Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Not sure why the 4 in the 3-4-3 has to have 2 fullbacks. It effectively makes it a back 5. With 3 at the back it still allows one of the 3 to step forward when needed. We should play Grant or Keo and one of them is slightly wider than the other 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And just keep Shankland through the middle, in the box and use the pace of the other 2 out wide. Please. I know it's popular but I don't see that front three working tbh. Humphrys and Gino will want to run in behind, which means you'll probably see Shankland dropping deeper, similar to the Livi game where Humphrys and Oda/Kuol played. If they both play out wide then I'd say neither are in their best position and pace out wide isn't necessarily that effective at home to a team who'll likely be defending deep. I know McKay hasn't been as good as last season but this is his kind of game in the same way Wednesday very much wasn't (I also don't think he was nearly as bad as has been made out). If he is benched I'd probably have Grant in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drylaw Hearts Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I’d be stunned if Shankland is moved from his No.10 role….he’s played it very well. He just can’t allow himself to drift too deep. I’d start Kuol and give the lad the opportunity to show us what he is really capable of as he cannot be judged on Wednesdays performance.
