STM Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Dubravka Schar Lascelles Dummett Fraser Trippier Shelvey Longstaff Joelinton ASM Wood Would probably be our best team but it would be ashame for Trippier to not have his right peg on the right wing. Fraser is a decent crosser mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to have been unable to break in to Aberdeen midfield or be much use. Doesn't sound like the answer in our current crisis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fraser is a decent crosser mind. I like this formation, but I'd rather have this assuming players are available. I'd rather Joelinton was deeper in CM, Fraser focussed on attacking and let Murphy do the wing back stuff, as he has the pace to recover and crossing from deep or on overlap for me.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Not sure I would move Trippier after we just signed Wood though. Has to be one of your best hopes of scoring. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazzy Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Bit of a risk putting Dummett straight back in after so long out. Can't see that happening tbh. It's going to be Ritchie whether we like it or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happinesstan Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I'll be happy to start with Trippier and Ritchie at WB. Get those crosses in the box so Wood can get a first al hat-trick, then bring on Dummett in te second half to secure the points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'd label any more game time for Ritchie left back closer to "sheer insanity" than moving Trippier if we have a more natural decent crosser to cover right wing back and to use both.

Yeah thats all well and good but I'd rather our best player play in his best position. I'd rather play Murphy leftback. Just because Trippier doesn't play left back doesn't mean Ritchie has to.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Trippier is more than capable of playing LB, all I meant was that it might reduce his supply of crosses to Wood. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Longstaff, we don't need goals, just need him to do the basics, run, close down the opposition, and try to pass to our players instead of theirs.

Dr Jinx Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Was looking at the training pictures earlier, Willock looks absolutely depressed in every single one of them. Wonder if he's been frozen out by teammates, something just not right there at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
