10menwent2mow Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Chance 2/5 for the Dons to wrap up 2nd place. The last twice we've played Hearts we have absolutely battered them. I reckon Deek will bring Reynolds back in and go to the usual team of the last few months, although it has to be said that Saturday's clusterfuck was nothing to do with the formation imo. Just about last chance saloon for Hearts to put some pressure on Saints for the final European place as well, Saints expected to lose at Parkhead so could cut the gap to 3 with a win and still to play them. Although it must've been a blow to slip further behind given last Saturdays fixtures. Should make for an exciting attacking game. 3-1 Aberdeen.

paranoid android Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 If we go with the same defensive set up, we'll get rag-dolled. Goncalves needs Johnsen or Walker right up alongside him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be my first game since Easter Road and last one for quite some time. If the sheep shaggers have downed tools, we might scrape another draw and extend our scintillating run of form.

tarapoa Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 If we had won on Saturday, we could have played a fringe team in this match - to keep players fresh for the dual challenge of Celtic a week on Friday, and Ibrox the following Wednesday - couple of unwanted records needing eliminated in those matches. Predictably we made a horlicks of things on Saturday when the prize was there to be grabbed with a completely lacklustre performance in a dreadful match against classic Tommy Wright make things as ugly and as horrible as possible tactics. Our Tynecastle record has improved a bit of late - and hopefully the players can get themselves up to repeat the performance of the December match where we should have won a lot more convincingly than 1-0. However, this is AFC after the split and I reckon a 1-1 draw in this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 With all due respect to Hearts, this is arguably our best chance of our remaining fixtures to get three points. After Saturday's result, we should be aiming to secure second place as soon as possible rather than just crawling over the line. I would revert to a structure and personnel that has worked well for us over the last couple of seasons and should be well placed to win this game: Lewis; Logan, Taylor, Reynolds, Considine; Jack, Shinnie; McGinn/Christie, McLean, Hayes; Rooney. McGinn has looked a bit jaded recently, so there is a reasonable shout that Christie could and should retain his place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
