Zamora Fan Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 We've returned to a full on 5-2-3/3-4-3 whatever. One open play goal playing that formation at home all season, with the context we didn't really change it until after Christmas. Goal fest awaits.I know it’s just a stat, but it feels a bit of an unfair one since it arbitrarily excludes away games (and the 4 goals in the two games at Hamden). We haven’t been particularly high scoring in other formations either... would be interested in the direct comparison taking in all games.Think Melamed is either away or will be sat on the bench thinking he should be away - being dropped when he scores in basically every game he starts can’t be a great boost for the case for him to sign a new deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its much better away, from memory, but then again its a formation built for counter attacks. I don't think it works at home generally, as teams are happier to sit in. I can't see Aberdeen being particularly expansive, so suspect we'll struggle to do much apart from pass lots. Maybe Middleton having pace/1v1 ability changes things though, we've not had that up front all season what with O'Halloran turning into a fucking donkey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radford Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Not a team to get excited about but the manager has credit in the bank so we'll see how it goes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glenrothes 1884 saint Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Happy with our changes tbh, width and guile, with pace from Middleton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspect Device Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I opted for the 7.2% O-G Hazy Brewdog rather than glue. Obviously can't watch this rubbish completely sober though. One thing I will miss next season when we're allowed back is the ability to sit and get quietly pished while watching us draw 0-0. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birra Moretti here, but I do have a bottle of isopropyl alcohol which may be more appropriate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bob Mahelp Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I have a feeling that this 2 minute silence will be the highlight of the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Aberdeen going with a back 4 will help us, I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarapoa Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 This has been shambolic so far - looks a matter of time before Saints score 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sh*teAndMuck Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 All Saints so far. Nae goals though. I think Conway took his eye off the ball. It was there to be poked past the keeper. Sake! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

betting competition Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 St Johnstone pressing is very impressive, we can't get out our half. Going to have to change formation soon if this continues 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloPerth Posted April 10, 2021 Author Share Posted April 10, 2021 I thought Conway could have had a wee swing at that through ball Rooney played earlier on when the keeper came out, he seemed to hold back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kane better knock another grand off his wage demands too. Fucking hell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
