Team for Sat:

Fod

Tav Wilson Kiernan Wallace

Barton Niko Halliday

Waggy Miller McKay

This is team I reckon MW will start with. Don't agree with it, however, I think he will be loyal to last seasons starters with exception of Barton and Niko.
It's their jerseys to lose on flag raising day. I expect Windass once fit to replace Halliday and Miller will drop out for new CF or Dodo. Also Kiernan to drop out for new CB or Crooks.

Is it just me or has Jason holt been sold? Nobody gives the wee man a mention when predicting teams? In my opinion he was probably our best performer last season and with better players round about him he could kick on further! I for one hope he's still round about the first eleven as he's proved himself already, I like the look of windass and co, but bit early to say they are better than wee holt! Gem of a player.

The wee guy is injured just now but yes, I think there is still a role in the team for him. He certainly has the talent to cement a place. The competition for places will be a great addition to the cause that we just didn't have last season imo.

I rate Holt higher than Halliday myself, though I rate Windass higher than Holt. Time will tell who wins the battle to get more game time and be the more important player in the squad.

I rate holt better than Halliday as well. But it's a bit too early to rate windass higher as he's only played few games . holt was consistent last year over a lot of games.

As was Windass that got him 15 goals in the league he played in, where I watched him on a couple of occasions. For me he just has that extra bit of physicality and pace that Holt is lacking, but still has the same style of wanting touches on the ball and playing short, sharp passes, looking to burst into the box from midfield. I stand by my opinion that Windass is superior to Holt.

Hokt is an excellent breaker up of play and ball winner he never stops running EVERY team needs a player like him Paul Lambert was essential to Celtic and Scotland in that role as were Fergie and McColl in our great team of 90s they can't all be Gazzas and DeBoer or Albertz

Warburton likes him and he was a standout in many games for us the cup semi being the best example

I think he will feature as much as and maybe more than last season. When the winter comes mid season it's the Hokts Hallidayc and Bartons you need to grind out victories

Add to all that he scores goals like Doddie used to from midfield supporting attack. A real box to box player.
