weeyin Posted January 19, 2021 Report Share Posted January 19, 2021 Aberdeen have been collecting injuries to key players recently and their defence is a calamity. So based on recent events I'm expecting the result here to be a Covid call-off about noon on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanos Posted January 20, 2021 Report Share Posted January 20, 2021 I’d try a midfield diamond Kelly O’Donnell Mugabi Gallagher Carroll Crawford Campbell O’Hara Polworth Cole Watt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu92 Posted January 20, 2021 Report Share Posted January 20, 2021 I don't think we'll change from the team that started against Rangers (maybe Lawless in for Seedorf) but would imagine we'll set up to impose ourselves a little bit more on Aberdeen. Given the injuries they currently have I don't think we'll be standing off and looking to defend the box like we did on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underboyleheating Posted January 22, 2021 Report Share Posted January 22, 2021 I’m weirdly confident about this one, 2-1 Motherwell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaka Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 Midfield is the big question for us. Kelly / SOD, Gallagher, Mugabi, Carroll & Watt / Cole pick themselves. So do we go for a 4 in midfield, or a 3 & add Lawless up front? My big issue is we dont have a Right Midfielder in the entire squad so Id go Kelly SOD / Gallagher / Mugabi / Carroll Crawford / Polworth / Campbell Cole / Watt / Lawless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 Long, O'Hara and Grimshaw will still be missing, but Hastie and Smith will presumably be added to the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
star sail Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 I think this is our biggest game of the season to date and could go some way to setting the narrative for the rest of the season. A win could well be the start of a much better second half of the season, a defeat underlines that we are well and truly in a relegation battle. I have never really bought the notion that we have a very poor squad (few did in August). I think this team is closer in ability to Hibs/Aberdeen than Accies/Ross County and we have matched the forementioned teams in games this season. Our record against Aberdeen has been good in recent years. Having said this, a draw looks the most likely with both teams not prolific in from of goal. Whilst a draw keeps the unbeaten run going it does not give us the breathing space we need. I think another 0-0 sounds about right. A win would be a huge shot in the arm at what could be a turning point in the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time we went 11 without winning it was 19 years ago and we finished bottom of the league. I don't even know if we've gone 12 without winning, probably going back to 1991/92 or the mid 80s. [Edit - 15 in 1995/96] We need to start winning not matter who we are playing or where we are playing and that latter point is relevant as we have 6 away matches in the next 8 matches. A good result would be huge, a defeat would be.....worrying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

middleeastdave Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 I thought it might have been unchanged side from last week, at least the substitute bench appears to be stronger with Long and Smith added and no sign of White, that’s interesting, hopefully on his way out!!

Wishart, Philliben, Paterson, McCart, Boyd, Farningham, Russell, Kirk, Arnott, Griffin, Gahagan, O'Neill, Dolan, Maxwell.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaka Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 A lot less confident now were starting with 10 men, especially when Bevis didnt make his customary howler to chuck away a goal last week. Surely Hastie, or anybody, is better than fucking Seedorf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
