Porteous & hanlon probably at centre half.For betting purposes, anyone any idea who’ll be against Morelos or Kent for hibs?
Porteous & hanlon probably at centre half.
Mcginn at right back I think.
Don't quote me on any of that.
thanks mate, Porteous aside just need to decide who’s likely to be carded
I enjoyed his petulant/nasty side yesterday. Not afraid to put himself aboutIs Hagi the new whipping boy?
He's just starting to hit a bit of form for me.
I agree with him.Generic answer.
I agree with him.
You are genuinely selecting an inexperienced centre back who can’t get in the team in his best position, ahead of our most experienced midfielder and the best reader of the game we have? Not only that but when you are so obsessed with pressing I’d have thought you’d want the guy that repeatedly wins the ball back and moves it on quickly in the team.
Our manager would be slaughtered for picking your side and rightly so.
thanks mate, Porteous aside just need to decide who’s likely to be carded
Because our full backs operate as wingers.
Helander will start
Hagi may have to play given our injury issues but I don’t doubt his talent and fighting spirit
Roofe may struggle too or he could aggravate the knock and be out for a few weeks
I’d go for this formation
McLaughlin
Tav Goldson Helander Barisic
Kamara Davis
Arfield Hagi Kent
Alfie
Edmundson has shown us he can muscle most players out of a 50/50, he is fast, point being he can then challange/cover long balls. As you so narrowly mention being fast was not the basis of being a DM. His passing is tidy, Maybe you just haven't noticed his qualities.
I am well aware any team needs balance and shape as for video games, I've never played them unlike yourself by the sound of it.
Biesla is a fan of 4-1-3-2 and he has utilised it well a few times.
When we face teams are sitting in, it offers more weight to batter a hole through them. It's that simple.
I'm not Steven Davis' biggest fan, but to suggest playing Edmundson ahead of him in the middle of the park is mental. We punted Ross McCrorie to Aberdeen because he couldn't get near the team(rightly or wrongly) and he is infinitely more suited to the role you describe than George Edmundson is.
Anyway, my team would be:
McGregor
Tav Goldson Helander Borna
Davis Kamara
Roofe Arfield Kent
Morelos
Toss up between Arfield/Hagi and probably harsh on McLaughln, though I do think he has been lucky not to be punished a couple of times coming for crosses(Dundee Utd and Kilmarnock) so don't totally buy into the "he's done nothing wrong" argument.
Good to have a number of strong options on the bench as well, especially considering those we are missing through injury.
Stopped reading at not Davis biggest fan
It was a bit of a throwaway comment. I do rate him but not to the same extent that a huge chunk of the fan base do.
He got red carded the last time we played thema Rangers player probably rather than a thug like Porteous
almost certainly get the Sportscene treatment but I'd love to see that wee arsehole get made an example of at some point
Maybe but my opinion is shagger is number 1 and until he’s had a bad run of form he should remain number 1. Not that his replacement has let us down it’s just how it is mateThink you might be in for a surprise.
You keep saying it's just how it is as if it's a predetermined decision.Maybe but my opinion is shagger is number 1 and until he’s had a bad run of form he should remain number 1. Not that his replacement has let us down it’s just how it is mate
McGregor
Tav Goldson Balogun Barisic
Davis Kamara
Roofe Hagi Kent
Morelos
Balogun over Helander solely for his pace, which we'll need as they'll try to use Boyle to counter us.
How many games has Balogun played?everytime balogun has been fit he starts maybe Gerrard considers him first choice
for me he is a better player. More pace better in the air better with the ball at his feet helander might read the game better
it’s good options to have
That and he’s our no 1. Not injured he’s playing that’s how it works. The goalkeeping position is totally different to the rest as you can’t chop and change. Shagger is the goalie when fit simple as that
McLaughlin
Tavernier Goldson Helander Borna
Davis
Hagi Kamara Kent
Roofe Morelos
Why do we need two DM, use one and press high and hard.

Speaking to a Hibs supporter earlier in the week and they were not impressed with they way they've been playing.
Not sure what they are expecting tbh, they have taken 16 points from 7 matches.
I watched them away to St. Johnstone and they should have been beaten. Didn't look too good that day although still got the win.
