So, now that the window is closed, what do people think is our best starting line up?

 

Langfield

 

Foster - Diamond - Seve - Mulgrew

 

Smith - Kerr - McDonald - Aluko

 

Wright - Miller

 

 

As much as I/we haven't seen him much I still think Wright will do a good job for us.

he'll replace Miller.

 

Miller is arguably our best player, so I'd doubt that.

KNOWING JIMMY IT WILL BE

BUT MAYBE NOT IN THAT POSITIONS 

 

Langfield

 

Considine - Diamond - Seve - Mulgrew

 

Smith - Kerr - McDonald - Aluko

 

Wright/Mackie - Miller

 

 

Miller is arguably our best player, so I'd doubt that.

 

I dont think he will replace miller either but then again mackie is jimmy,s golden boy

Those putting Considine or Zander at left back need therapy.

If JC were to put some of the players in the positions suggested in this thread, he'd need to do a Paterson to leave Pittodrie.

Who did?

        Langfield

JH  Considine Zander  Mulgrew

Smith Kerr Severin Aluko

Miller Mackie

But that was why JC bought Wright to give competition to Miller. Jc has always played "big guy and smaller fast paced guy" up front. Brewster/Crawford at Dunfermline example. So a Miller/Wright strike force wouldn't work cause they are to similar. When and if Wright starts banging them in I could see him replacing Miller. This is good for the dons though cause it'll cause some healthy competition for places.

I don't understand that reasoning, what are you basing it on? 

 

I think this is the 11 that JC will start with if everyone's available to him.

 

                  Langfield

 

Foster - Diamond - Severin - Mulgrew

 

Smith - Kerr - McDonald - Aluko

 

              Mackie - Miller

 

However, I'd quite like to see us play a 4-5-1, now that we've got two good wide players and a couple of good sitting players, just to see how we get on.

 

                  Langfield

 

Foster - Diamond - Considine - Mulgrew

 

                 Kerr - Seve

 

       Smith - McDonald - Aluko

 

                    Miller

Only problem with this formation is that we're relying heavily on the 11 that are starting, as they're all ideal for the position they'd play in.  A 4-4-2 enables us to chop and change players with very little difference.

Exactly the team I was gonna suggest. Though we have enough trouble scoring goals, I'm not sure a lone striker is such a good idea. I'd like to see us try it though.

Sounds very tombola-esq

 

Like it though!

 

 

I see it as more utilising the versatility of players and if going 343 its putting most players bar seve in  arguably their best positions.  I.e.  mulgrew and foster in midfield and smith and aluko up front
