manc_don Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Unsurprisingly, this is very much a must win game. Also, I'm hoping we really see a reaction from not only the team, but especially the managerial duo that they've taken the kick up the arse seriously. No one wants them to fail, but belief that they'll be able to deliver is another thing. St.Mirrens form is in stark contrast to ours (much like a lot of the league). They've actually managed to get something positive from a game against the dhimmery. Although they play them again ahead of our game so that may work in our favour. We last bet them in October, when we had a team that were buzzing with confidence and wingers on form. Be interesting to see if we revert to a four at the back or keep plugging away with three, which doesn't work. As Jute has mentioned countless times, we need to move away from this introverted winger bullshit. Another failed tactic and so easy to cancel out.

Jute Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 To be fair I think it was Rico that first brought up the inverted wingers and I just agreed with him. Really need to see a reaction from the team from management down but I thought that after Livingston and we actually got worse not better. Hopefully Kamberi will arrive this week and he will be available for Saturday to give us another option up front. Really think we need to go back to 4 at the back.

Would imagine he might still be on the bench if he hasn't played for a couple of months. If not was his loan signing really worth it ?

Elgindon Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Assuming the games still on then?Fair drop of snow again last night. 40/50 mile an hour winds at kick off,so not expecting a pretty game. Cant see where a sudden improvement in form is coming from unfortunatley. Dons 1 - Saints 1 (Ferguson) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jute Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 3-5-2? Surprised at Kamberi being pitched straight in with him not having played since December. Thought he might start on bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamberi and mcginn playing off Hornby. I just don't get, why he can't see that we make the pitch really small in this set up and take the pace out of our team.

LA-Don Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 When multiple people can’t figure out a formation, I don’t think that helps us. Looks like two left midfielders in a deeper Hayes and Kennedy? Or Hayes at left back?? Is McCrory right back? No right mid? Where is mcginn playing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendry isn't an amazing footballer, but he'll got stuck in and win us balls in these conditions. The shape up front is fine if we can get the ball down, with Kamberi and McGinn doing well. Very difficult in these conditions like, so that should relieve the pressure a bit, just get Hendry on and turn it into a proper battle. Campbell doing okay in midfield.

BigAl Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Agree about Campbell. Probably been the pick of the bunch so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
