Jambomo Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I’d like to see Patterson get a game in this one and see what he can do l, as I do expect O’Donnell to stay first choice for the Euro matches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lang Toun Lad Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) Norway needed a late Haaland goal to get by this lot. Hopefully we can get a few of the Covid 6 in and a win to build confidence.

accies1874 Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 MarshallHendry Hanley TierneySOD McTominay Gilmour Robertson McGinnAdams FraserDykes might play instead of Fraser due to the latter's lack of fitness and McGregor will almost certainly play, but I think it's important to go as close to the Czech starting lineup as possible. Maybe give McLaughlin a half just because, and give Patterson half an hour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartan Dave Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I’d expect no one who got 90 minutes last night will start 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Yep, you’d expect at least 3 more Barclays players to start with Adams, McTominay and Gilmour. That said - I have a bad feeling about this. 2-0 Luxembourg. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally McGinn and McTominay would too but I’d give them 45 mins or an hour since they missed last night. But we really need most of our key performers to be wrapped up in cotton wool now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlipperyP Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) Listen to lads on sportsound in the morning, we should maybe try a new formation, get the few things if it goes wrong, or was that on the Netherland Thread, sorry not had much sleep, anyway. guys that will play for sure. Utter pishe talk. Marshall, McTominey (one day I'll spell it right) McGinn, Adams, I would rest Kierney MacGregor, one because we dont' need anymore from him until the tournament, second, he needs a rest, good player, don't understand the abuse he gets on here. He has a job to get the ball move it on, and last night was asked to be the sitting midfielder. Adams from the start, then give Nisbet the second half, he earned it. Don't car e who start at right wingback, it will be switch for sure at half time. All in all, a positive game, a win at the end of the day.

Smokerson Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Not the time for pissing about with formations. Hopefully the isolating 6 can play plus McTominay and Gilmour so only really need to play 3 that started last night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGregor needs a rest. Missing one game won't do much for him, but he needs a rest. No point in risking Tierney or Robertson and I'd take McTominay/McGinn/Fraser off after 45.

Maybe give McLaughlin a half just because, and give Patterson half an hour. Wouldn't it be the opposite and Fraser starts due to a lack of fitness? 45-60 mins seems likely, if not necessary, to me.Until last night he hadn't played a minute since the Faroes game in March. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 6 that missed out last night get a run out, and Fraser gets some more minutes to get up to speed. I'd try and get 30-45 mins for Patterson and some more game time for Forrest and Nesbit too. Looking forward to seeing how we do when the expectation will be for us to dictate the play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Ferguson's Hat Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 We should rip it up and start again for this one. We have nothing to lose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play McGinn and McTominay for just the first half, maybe give Patterson one half too or start him.Fraser clearly needs some football under his belt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I appreciate it would be just about getting them a run out, but I don't think we should be playing a back three of Hanley, Gallagher and McKenna against any opposition, let alone against a team where we're going to be dominating possession. Out of all of our centre-backs, those are the three who are worst in possession and will end up giving the ball away a lot by just hoofing it. I'd probably play Hendry for a half and Cooper or McTominay for a half alongside Hanley and one other (probably McKenna). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're playing Luxembourg - if those 3 end up hoofing it that will be a lesson in itself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 You know the film The Perfect Storm? Well we just drove through that to get to Lux and it's caught up with us now. Should be dry Sunday apparently.Any recommendations for beering pre match? I think we're staying 5 minutes walk away. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re in the squad and need to be ready, so they need minutes on the pitch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) Gallagher and McKenna both had minutes on the pitch last night and I'm only saying that one of them needs to miss out. Edited June 3, 2021 by craigkillie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
