Yep, he is only winding Shankland up.

"When you arrive at 10 games to go, that's when the fun begins," Rodgers said.

Their team lacks a bit experience. O'Riley and Maeda are top players though.

Yep, I think a year is a long time to wait. We have Fraser on loan for half a season, I think he needs to play more games if we want to sign him, we can't really judge how good he is just now.

That's the spirit!

I'm usually giving a player 12 games as a free hit but after that I want o see some improvement. Phil Clement was on the radio yesterday saying he has a rule and gives the player a season to settle in. Maybe I expect too much from a new signing. Typical Hearts fan. What about you?

Milne took sides with the Old Firm when we had a chance to change Scottish football. He can't be worse than Milne.

Warnock is getting too much stick. Blamed for everything. Aberdeen will not get relegated. If Warnock has thought it would be easy in Scotland it will be because Dave Cormack/Baffles has told him about he'll have the best players in Scotland (outside the OF) to work with.

Water off a duck's back.

It is his hidden strength, he just hasn't found it yet. He is old, he has misplaced it.

It seems to be the case now that a manager cannot criticise the players because they are all delicate little flowers and he can't hurt their feelings because that is unfair.

St Mirren having an excellent season and they are still in the race for the title. Update when you are ready @johnnydun

If we are going to a back 3 then it's more than likely to be Sibbick in for Kent. So, Cochrane pushing forward on the left. He can take Johnston. I think he got the better of him at Parkhead. Taylor goes missing in action on the other side of the park so it could be Dexter getting picked on the right as the best part of his game is when he gets forward. Shankland score against Celtic so we have a threat, it's brutal playing against them without a threat, we have something for them to worry about.

Last week we lost 5-0 to Rangers then we got a lucky draw with Hibs plus Celtic are back on form so Sunday isn't looking good. Last time we played Celtic at Tynecastle Naismith was full of confidence and spoke about going toe to toe with Celtic. He put out an attacking team and the players were left chasing shadows as we lost 4-1. I don't know how he is going to play this one, I think he might have to pack the midfield as the defence is looking shaky.

That'll be Aberdeen 2nd bottom of the Diddyship. A game in hand though.

It's a shame we are missing Oda again. my thinking with Beni was that he might be rested and back this weekend. If he is okay to play then fine but he was being rested not too long ago.

I'm expecting to see a few changes to the team. Fraser in for Grant, Devlin for Beni, dropping a centre half and giving Forrest a start. Maybe more than that.

Atkinson is better than Dexter. I wouldn't have Dexter as a defender. Maybe put Sibbick back in the team if Atkinson is dropped.

That's quite funny. What is he on about though?

We have plenty players to chose from a Naismith utilises the squad very well. The players are comfortable playing different formations. We sometimes play with 3 at the back/ an extra centre half, we are more solid, don't concede many goals but don't create/score many goals. We sometimes play with a back 4, we are more open, score more goals but concede more. Against Rangers we have went from losing 2-1, 1-0 to losing 3-1, 5-0. I think it was right to start with a back 3 but now I think we need to try something different when we next play Rangers.

Naismith is going to have to field a different team or formation to take something from these games against Rangers. That is 4 in a row he has lost to them and the results are not getting worse. Clement has him sussed.

The starting line-up is similar to the team we started with in the previous 3 games v Rangers. In October we started with Sibbick and Offiah but today we have Kingsley and Atkinson instead In November we started with Sibbick, now we have Atkinson In December we started with Tagawa but now we start with Vargas

Is it now time for Gordon to be back in the team. Should we start with 3 at the back then return to a back 4 and open up when we feel like the time is right, bring on the wingers. Release the hounds.

It can't be stone. Normal people say stane not stone.
