naegoodinthedark Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Hayes at left back. That’s a certainty. I’d like to see McGeouch or Campbell get a start, assuming we’re going to utilise a midfield. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 (edited) - Are any of the injured players (Clark, Davidson, Kane) due back? - Will we continue with the 5-2-3 formation? Two big questions for Saints fans to figure out. Midfield two struggled in the first half against Uniteds midfield three, so a bit worried by that as Aberdeen will likely play that, and have far better players in there. On the other hand, the second half was a really solid defensive display despite being a man down and still only having two in there. Think we'll give it another go, and if there's no players recovered from injuries, I'd take a punt at... ... but theres multiple different ways he could go, so its really hard to predict. Just want an improvement from the first 45 at the weekend, and a real chance to see how this set up is going to work.

DrewDon Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I'd like to see a few changes from Saturday, unsurprisingly. Hayes to left-back in Considine's absence, as much as I like Considine, might actually prove to be a blessing in disguise - our use of the ball down the left side on Saturday was, for the most part, hopeless. We are still a better team with McGinn than without him, so hopefully he is fit enough to start. With Hayes at left-back, I'd also like to see either Hedges or McLennan come in. Edmondson to replace Anderson for more physicality and presence as the lone striker. Campbell was one of the few positives from Saturday, so I'd like to see either him or McGeouch replace Ojo in midfield. That would look something like this: Lewis Hernandez - Taylor - McKenna - Hayes Campbell/McGeouch - Ferguson Hedges/McLennan - McGinn - Kennedy Edmondson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, I'd like to see Campbell in for Bryson, seemed to play with his head up & at least try to pick up a pass. I'm a fan of Ojo, but he was far too sleepy on Saturday. If McKenna & Taylor have out-balls in both Hernandez & Hayes, hopefully that might give increase the chances that we find the midfield. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel a bit sorry for Anderson getting dropped as he really didn't do anything to deserve it as he obviously inherited his genes from his parents, neither of whom are at least 6ft 2 apparently 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TractorBoy Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 With the news of the mini outbreak in Aberdeen, I hope all their players and staff have been behaving. 352 all day long with Craig & McCann sitting in and Spoony in the number 10 slot. Macca and May up top. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought we might have a better chance of a result if we used our new genetic mutation division to fuse some of our players together, to create a new breed of super-player. Also means we would save on wages, bonuses etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
