I think it is clear as day that we must play Wiv 2 wingers, if we playing up top we must play 442 cause we need Candias and Kent on the park together to stretch teams and alow our full backs to push on and play there game correctly. McCrorie and Jack in the middle holding and breaking play up.

Davis is still not up to speed yet IMO he needs to step it up. Would still rather we just played 433 thou and rotate Morelos looks out of sort since definitely started playing with him.

I agree paul 86!My team against the sheep would be-
Mcgregor
Tavernier, worrall, katic, barisic,
Jack
Davis, Arfield
Candeias, Morelos, Kent.

Can't believe gerrard tried a diamond again, its so obvious that it doesn't work. Davis slows the play up. We looked much better when davis went off and candieas came on👍.

Davis should be nowhere near the starting 11 for the game against the sheep! We looked great at 442 yesterday with jack and arfield in the cm and defoe and morelos up top. Kent and candieas wide were class. If not that then it should be the usual with jack mccrorie and arfield in the centre with candieas and kent wide. 👍.

I make no apologies for banging on about it but we do not play 4-4-2 well, whether it is a diamond shape or a flat 4-4-2. It has to be 4-5-1, some say 4-3-3, as long as Kent and Candeias are on the wings. With 4-4-2 IMO it is too crowded from 30 yards out, no wingers to stretch the defence and allow our midfield to follow up. Also I don't see Fredo scoring too many more goals with 4-4-2.

Bluetoon, we went 442 yesterday when davis went off for candieas and we blew st mirren away. 👍.

Coldo agree with you re Davis. However playing 2 from Jack/ McCrorie/ Arfield in midfield with Kent and Candeias doesn't exactly fill me with confidence in a 4-4-2.

This will split the forum and could have good opinions from many. We know what SG will do come kick off.

Coldo, there's absolutely no way we should play a 442 formation against the sheep, on wednesday night!

You're correct bluetoon! If we go a 442 against the sheep on wednesday, we would be sacrificing a central midfielder to play that system! No chance!

We looked great when we went 442 yesterday. Are you saying or are you worried that the mighty sheep will pump us if we don't play with 3 cm's? I thought when we went 442 yesterday it was a breathe of fresh air. So why should we not play 442? Don't say aberdeen are better than st mirren. If I remember right we have played with 3 cm's against aberdeen 3 times this season and we have best we have managed is a draw. So playing with 3cm's against them hasn't worked so why not give them defoe and morelos to think about? . After all it worked great yesterday👍.

Morelos plays better when he's the 1 up top, central himself, that's why!

If everyone is fit
McGregor
Taviener, Worrall, Katic, Barsic
Mccrorie, Jack, Arfield
Candeias, Morelos, Kent.

Same as blueberry for me but Goldson in for Worrall if fit! Could define our season this one, 3 points is a must!

He hasn't played well against Aberdeen at all coop, he could do with hand against their defence. The last time at ibrox he couldn't lay a glove on their defence.

Guys the discussion regarding whether we play 4-4-2 diamond or flat, 4-5-1 or 4-3-3 has been a good discussion along with whether Morelas is better on his own or whether he needs help, has been enjoyable to take part in. No mud slinging between prticipants.

up until yesterday I would have said playing 442 was out of the question but when davis went off for candieas and we went 442 I thought we looked great. I also thought defoe and morelos looked to have a good understanding and played well with eachother in the 442.

It seems most agree Steve g has no
Clue about tactics
Defoe must start as we are shipping about 30k a week for him so the manager must rate him very highly
Defoe certainly knows how to take
A dive
The game against Aberdeen is a must
Win to just try and secure second
Place.

Will goldson be fit for the sheep?

Supercoopereleven, would start McCrorie and have Davis on the bench.
McCrorie adds a bit of physical prescence to our midfield.
Like to see us start with a 4-3-3 formation.
