What's your thoughts on our best 11, assuming no more squad changes
I'd go
Rado
Dillon
Souttar
Fojut
Robertson
Paton
Rankin
Dow
Armstrong
GMS
Ciftci
But then I haven't seen any of the new boys yet

I'd like to see a 442 or something..
A new Goalkeeper as well but assuming we don't make anymore new signings.
Cierzniak.
Watson - Dillon - Morris - Robertson.
Armstrong - Rankin - Paton - GMS/ Dow.
Graham - Ciftci.
Since Graham seems to score with 2 up top, try and exploit that.
Dillon and Morris have supposedly been solid through Pre-Season.
Like you said, I've not seen the new boys so let's just see how Jackie approaches the new season.

I think we can take away Robertson
With all this talk of bids I'd be amazed if he's still here

No Paton?

Rado
Dillon
Morris
Fojut
Robertson (Or new LB)
Paton
Rankin
Dow
Armstrong
Spittal
Ciftci
Loads of options with the front three on the bench, Erskine (who seems to be doing ok pre-season), Telfer, Bilate, Graham, Moore, with Ciftci moving back into the front three.

Not sure what the starting line up will be but Think we should start with 3 defensive midfielders. Aberdeen bossed our midfield last season and we need to counter that this season otherwise we wont make any progress this year

Might be the perfect role for Souttar, playing just in front of the back four, with Paton and Rankin.
A lot of people have been calling for him to move into the defensive mid position.

Don't think we need a new formation all the time, we do need different options for certain games tho, and to me the squad looks a little bit more balanced to provide those options, although I do agree that there may be more changes to come

You could maybe Sacrifice Paton If you were going more attaching and play Graham with Ciftci.
