SuperMario · 26/11/2015 8:33 pm

Szromnik
McGowan Morris Dillon gunning Dixon
Demel rankin souttar
Telfer
McKay

Thought the formation last week was a breath of fresh air!

PatReilly · 26/11/2015 8:57 pm

Szromnik
McGowan Morris Souttar Gunning Dixon
Demel Rankin
Spittal Fraser
McKay

But we haven't enough choices, in my view. Things might not change very much until we have better quality, width, speed and experience in the squad.

I like the look of that but I don't think Morris has even started training yet so we could be looking at Durnan or Dillon playing at the back for a few weeks more. Not too fussed about Dillon but Durnan looks poor tbh. He's not bad on the deck stepping out from the back but he let MacLean bully him in the air for about an hour on Saturday.

I also thought Telfer looked good 1st half last Saturday and probably deserves another start ahead of Fraser who did nothing when he came on.

I'd go fur this. Telfer is a weak link to bully through the middle but with Demel and Rankin close by and Dillon and Gunning behind I rekon with the right organisation it's a decent formation.

TheShed · 26/11/2015 10:26 pm

Szromnik
Dillon. Souttar. Gunning
McGowan. Demel. Rankin. Dixon
Spittal. Fraser
McKay

Subs Zwick, Telfer, Connolly, Murray, Morris, Coote, Spark

None of the other striking options are good enough to start and we could really do with the GK position being sorted out before Sat, still having to rely on defenders for width, not ideal but it's the best we have for now.

SuperMario · 26/11/2015 11:44 pm

I canna do another week of the shite spittal performs would much rather telfer got a game ahead of him! Spittal is so gash

Arab_plumber · 27/11/2015 12:50 am

The only change will be Demel coming in and probably Rankin dropping out IMO

Rankin?

Been one of our better players this season (not saying much admittedly).

Arab_plumber · 27/11/2015 1:25 am

I am going with this because it's a like for like change and Demel being better than Ranks, I see us playing the same system as last week,....I will probably be wrong lol

Demel's a right sided player...Ranks is left side.

My money would be on Souttar or Spittal dropping out the team.

Silver · 27/11/2015 7:59 am

No way Rankin should be left out. Leave him in and drop Souttar for Demel. Leave the rest as last week.

Andy · 27/11/2015 4:49 pm

First time in a long time I'm confident of a win here, assuming keeper still doesn't get clearance I'd go with:

.............................Szromnik.........................
McGowan.....Dillon....Gunning.....Dixon
Connolly.......Demel......Telfer......Rankin
......................Pongolle....McKay..................

SuperMario · 27/11/2015 5:08 pm

does anyone know if Morris is fit

bowers · 27/11/2015 5:52 pm

not sure what our team will be i think Demel will start though and Pongolle on bench.

Really think we will win tommorrow we need to

Waffelz · 27/11/2015 6:22 pm

Why is Demel suddenly a midfielder? Played in defence for West Ham

lifesanocean · 27/11/2015 7:18 pm

He says Mixu wants to play him in midfield. He played in midfield in his two clubs in Germany where he played for most of his career.

I want to see him smash that Darien McKinnon tomorrow.

Pongolle in for Fraser with Spittal behind him and McKay, it's slowly getting better.

huntedbyafreak · 27/11/2015 7:39 pm

I'm never confident with thon keeper

SuperMario · 27/11/2015 7:41 pm

I think szromik has been very good considering how bad his United Career started

27/11/2015 7:54 pm

I think Demel will play in midfield.

Questions......does Mixu stick with last Saturday's formation or revert to a back four if he thinks Demel gives the back four better cover.

Who drops out of midfield....Souttar or Rankin I guess?

If he goes back four is it curtains for Durnan?

Agreed, sooner that's sorted the better.

Waffelz · 27/11/2015 8:32 pm

I'd go with the wing backs as that's the most width we've had since last Year

Silver · 27/11/2015 9:04 pm

Yip, wing backs for me. The improvement was as clear as day.

SuperMario · 27/11/2015 10:41 pm

Wing backs for me too
