I’m assuming Whyte is a stick on to start this game. Will be nice to get a good look at him.

If we can get a goal scorer I think we can do very well this year. Don’t care if he is a number 9 or what style he plays, as Long as he can score goals frequently, that’ll do me. If we get another goal scorer then it might also help JT score more goals as defenses will need to focus on more than just JT.

Once you get on a bit any age is a good age!!

Haven’t been this nervous/excited about a game in a long time.

Not sure how fit Johnny K is yet but completely forgot about playing him at RB with Sparrow pushing up to midfield.

I agree with that. Ball is more likely to stick with Said and we know it doesn’t stick with JT so I’d go but might change my mind in two minutes 😀 Paulsen sparrow JGR Moorman Longelo faddy Oscar Lowry JT Said Cook What if Williams is fit? Does he replace Cook? Does it change our shape? we also need more movement from our front players. Make runs for ball in behind. Make lateral runs to drag defenders about. Interchange positions amd in general give the defenders problems to deal with.

I think the first 7 almost pick themselves. Maybe JGR in for JKL but either is good. Johnny at RB if Sparrow injured. It’s the remaining 4 that stump me, especially since we don’t have a real centre forward. Id maybe switch cookie and Said or perhaps Said for Lowry, Vogt right, Cookie left amd JT middle. Or Is it JT up top with 3 behind him for a 4-2-3-1 ? The 3 Being Said plus 2 from Vogt, Lowry amd Cookie.

That’s the big question, what will our best starting 11 be? Not sure who we will have available but also not sure what that best 11 (or formation) would be.

If we have to play Freiburg, I’m not too fussed if we get beat here. Would want full team with no injuries, available for 1st leg at Fir Park. If we get put out by HJK, I’d really like to see us hammer Stenny. He’s

How are ticket sales going for this game? We’ll need the crowd roaring the team on to see us thru the 90 minutes I think. Hopefully we can actually score some goals to put us in a better position for the last 15 minutes or so. Any word on Williams being available?

I’ve been thinking of Odense where we hammered them and got beat 0-1 they ended up with 9 men I think. Did we hit the post with penalty?

One of our biggest games for a while. “Glamour” tie versus Freiburg awaits us if we win. Not often we get to play the Europa league runners up.

Second Leg Q3 Conference

Do we use this thread for Thursday as well or start a new one?

I thought I read someone on here saying it was in competition rules but not sure if it was specific competition or all competitions

Although don’t we need a certain amount of home grown talent on our roster?

I see HJK won their game yesterday 1-0 away from home. So neither team en fuego going into Thursday.

Each team had 1 shot on target. 🙁

Didnt enjoy that game. Falkirk (with refs help) turned it into scrappy stop start shitfest. Obviously our issues are up front. Hope no major injuries

All a bit scrappy at the moment

Not getting a whole lot from JT, Booth and Vogt going forward Said a wee bit hit and cold. If Alfred can make a change or two to give us more up top we could win quite comfortably. Maybe shift JT wide and ply cook thru the middle with Vogt of Booth coming off.

Watching Killie game just now. Playing surface looks miles better.

I think Vogt is doing fine. Obviously doing what the manager wants him to do if he keeps starting him. i hope Williams is available for Thursday night, he looks like a very handy player.

I’m getting greedy. Would like a straightforward 2 or 3 goal win and no injuries. however I’ll take not getting beat, with no injuries. juat hope the players minds are focused on this game and not looking ahead to Thursday. They can start that at 5pm on Sunday.

Had a quick look at the live text updates for Swansea game and Eli’s name all over it.
