texanwellfan Posted August 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 I think I’d start with same 11 as last week. If we are scoreless after first half I’d switch it to play Watt and and Long as a front 2 and give Lang the freedom to move wherever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 If they play like they did against Hibs and the forward line get act together we will pump them.O Hara,Turnbull and Campbell midfield is class has a bit of everything having watched the frontline more so in the middle Long is at the back of the queue.White and Watt for me maybe even give Lang a go.

Kmcalpin Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 On paper we are the better team. However, at the simplest, on the day it'll boil down to 2 things; can we remain solid at the back with no mistakes and can we create chances and actually put the ball in the net "legally". I'm quite happy for Accies to dominate the game as long as we score 1 more goal than they do. Is that too much to ask for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But cmon Dave. We dominated Hibs at Easter Rd. Dominated possession in every game so far. There is no chance Accies will dominate the game. They may score and we may miss a whole load of chances but no way they will dominate this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkyred Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 It really is going to be about finally putting away our chances. On our own pitch we really should yet again have most of the possession, we just need to show more confidence in the final third. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect us to dominate possession but just hope that we stay watertight at the back and put away our chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu92 Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 Had initially thought we’d go with an unchanged lineup, but have a sneaky suspicion Watt may start over White. We may need our better footballers on the park to counteract the icki-accie style football that we’re all accustomed to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazzyB Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 That's some ball from Turnbull there, Seedorf looked a tad slow getting on the end of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welldaft Mk1 Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 So we have had 66% possession and 5 times as many shots at goal - sound familiar. Like every game so far this season. We need to get our act together in final 3rd. like Groundhog Day..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accies off the ball work rate all over the pitch has been very impressive and they're giving us little space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
