Wearethepeople72 1,845 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Anyone else think we'd be better to play 3-5-2 against them on Saturday?That's twice we've played 4-4-2 away to QOTS and twice we have been easily defeated.IMO we need to play similar to the way we did at Easter Road when we beat Hibs 2-0 and produced what was probably our best performance of the season. We have to match them in midfield, stop them playing through us and go from there.Thoughts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jafrfc 614 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Read McCalls comments in the paper today and he seemed to be suggesting that's how we'll line up. That's fine with me because we've played some of our best football in a 3-5-2. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don54 25,517 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 That was my thoughts for the last time we played them and I would hope we line up with 3-5-2 on Saturday Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterD 7,435 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 McCall a couple of times has said we don't need to win every game and that games are won over 180mins which makes me think he'll try and be defensive and play for a 1-0 or a draw.

sergio 1,199 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 We have had more possession in each of the matches we have played them, to stop counter attacking football, then there needs to be an extra man in defense/ midfielder .. old fashion sweeper We had 58% and 4 times as many shots as they did, they got lucky and they wont again ... confident we will win both legs Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one, can't remember any. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCutch 4,340 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 They are a fast counter attcking side, which he have failed to stop in the games against them.But how are they if the team they are playing is not attcking as much?I would like to see how they fair when they need to break down a defence/midfield, as I think they would struggle trying to do that.Let's not play to their strengths once again.

LaudrupsPatrickBoots 13,510 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 3 at the back, especially if Jig is one of those 3, scares the shit out of me quite frankly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 53,782 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I'm not bothered if it's a 4-5-1 or a 3-5-2 but we have to line up with five in midfield. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoGeo7 10,514 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 5-3-2 (wing backs).BellLaw mcgregor zaliukas gasparotto WallaceMurdoch shiels vuckicgallagher HardieI think that defending we'd have enough behind the ball and attacking we'd get enough men forward to cause problems. Shiels and Crawford can also drift wide to offer the overlap with the wing backs.Gasparotto for me is the one risk but given the reports coming from airdrie I'd say it's less of a risk than mcculloch or mohsni.Hardie up front for me with Gallagher just off him to give a bit of pace and energy up front as all we'd get from Clark would be lots of running and no end product.

That's why I'd opt for Hardie and Gallagher to mix things up a bit as I doubt QoS know that much about them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
