Match Day Thread Pre-Season Friendlies 2019

Pushed for time this morning and posted before I viewed your Its Matchday post, having watched it now I am beginning to soften in my attitude to the trip. It would have preferred it, if we had seen something of the game you mention, a Grigg goal is in itself fast becoming a collectors item. On the topic of shooting, worry not, I never get past my foot. .

That looks good to me

 

Got to assume this will be pretty close to our starting 11 first game of the season. It's pretty much our strongest team, imo.

Really highlights how poor we are in CM still.

But we have McGeady, Maguire & Power & Maddison hopefully

 

We looked like a team of strangers, at times, last season and were less than the sum of our parts.

We don't have that excuse anymore and Ross needs to pick his best team and stick to it imo.

There were too many changes, last season, and we ran out of steam.

 

Big Jon,
C McLaughlin, Willis, Flanagan, O/9, Leady, McGeouch, Hume Watty Embleton
Grigg.
not sure how these will line up,
hope they do.

 

catch up at the back
It's either 3-5-2 or 3-4-3

 

or 4-4-2 or 4-5-1 or summat or sammut even

 

We've played 3 at the back every game so far in pre-season - but yeah who knows

 

JR always played that way in Scotland, and we have more strength in mid field than at the back in my opinion, the wing back option is the way to go and joking aside, 3/5/2 is the way I see this team lining up. We will see.

 

There's 1 CM in that lot and he wasn't very good last season

 

Bright start tonight ...

where was grigg for that cross

 

Wheres Maja

Where he usually is.

 

locked in the toiles sharpening his pencil

 

To be fair, I think Watmore was going for goal, but what a pass it was from Embleton.

 

i think Embelton will be a star this season i quite like young robson as well good player

 

I like both of them, Robson had a poor game last time out and this will happen, its happened with Hume also, but these players are a big part of our future. KTF.
