MrDust Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 1 hour ago, Shadwell Dog said: Dowds is a better creater than finisher as we saw against cove and Francis is completely the opposite. Sammon needs to be used in the right way to get the best out of him and sometimes that has been the main issue. Dowds and sammon for me today. I dont think we can put Francis into any category at the moment obviously is a WIP One minute he can look like a finisher or creator and the next minute looks like he has never seen a football. He may end up our Gregory Tade but he isnt starting for a reason, good sub to have tho but wont get on afore Miller if it matters. Sammon has improved but I dont think he is the striker we need, his strength has been counter attack football looking to run on the ball over the top or played in running to goal, he has shown flashes of that but he is winding down his career now and will end up at a cash rich junior team either January or next season. I think the only general opinion shared today is we all hope Durnan is back on the bench today 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I have already said why anyone would change anything after our last two league performances is basically daft IMO of course Personally I’d swap Connolly in for Leitch for a home game vs Peterhead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that Dowds is a better creator so would start him. Personally would start Francis ahead of Sammon as although he does sometimes go missing, I think he’s far more likely to score than Sammon is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see any problem with BPM's point, just stating the obvious facts that we are undefeated in the league with a tried and tested system, which shows there absolutely zero reason to change players and formations of recent games if it's working, unless they are forced of course. In the same breath however, it does make for some interesting reading some of these formations and tactics others would like to see, I've done it myself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proudtobeabairn Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Suspect the changes from the last league game will be Mercer in for Miller and Telfer in for Leitch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why anyone would change what is working is beyond me. I think there is a debate to be had about how well it is working and in what respects. We are winning games with the 4-4-2 but we retained possession much better against Rangers with the extra body in midfield. It's fair to ask if we could take that into league games and be even more effective. We are weaker up front than we are in midfield, getting more goals from that area of the park and it should let us have a bit more of the ball. Pros and cons to both approaches. Maybe I'm playing too much FIFA or maybe I'm watching us week to week. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 (edited) Someone has made a bit of a mess of the FTV graphics Assuming Telfer is starting on the left, good chance for him to show what he can do today after a very stop-start Falkirk career so far Mutch and Miller still self-isolating Hopefully Leitch can get a shot on the right at some point from the bench, along with more minutes for Connolly Edited December 5, 2020 by NavyBlueArmy1876 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't have the pace to play out wide for me. No idea why Connolly isn't getting a shot unless they are still protecting his injury. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could definitely play at higher level, as could a few of your boys though. Another test for you today against the Mo who we know are aggressive, how have Cove been mixing it physically this season? I think it's very unfair if we're made to play Montrose as well as Peterhead TBH. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East Fife and Jack Hamilton could be done with Morrison that's for sure. Mitch, Fyvie, Harry Milne, Blair Yule are definitely capable of playing at a higher level. Cove have physicality in their squad so should be able to cope with that threat. No Mitch today which is a huge loss. He really gives us legs up top and creativity. Worry about McAllister as a lone striker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was shocked when cove actually spent cash to take him from Peterhead. Used to put us to the sword but is a poor shadow of his former self. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
