Kenny and Morelos next week ?

[stevotrueblue 382]

Not sure why the manager waited until 83 mins to give Morelos a run ,, esp as for the most part Herrera was pretty much not in the game.  In all honesty I noticed more of Morelos in 7 mins than I did of Herrera in 83.

Perhaps the boss is thinking Morelos lack of experience was the deciding factor in team selection.  I know they both are still settling in and ideally having a big target man linking in with the wee man nippy man would be ideal,, so perhaps he intended to bring on Morelos for kenny when he started to tire,,, but for me thats a hard call as we all know Kenny can come good anytime and Herrera as yet we dont.

So should we try Morelos and Kenny together next week in the same formation?  Morelos for me, looks at least the hungrier and has shown he can score goals as opposed to Herrera only getting 4 last season ,,,,

Herrera and Morelos imo

Preferably no Herrera or Miller.

Agreed, no harm to Kenny, he gave the ball away a few times today.

I hope that is what we see v Dunfermline and either (ideally both) get off the mark.

Don't know if Miller is getting a start just for communications sake, not sure how having the two foreign signings upfront would be this early on. Need to start giving Morelos 90 mins, going by that from Herrera we've nothing to lose from trying it.

[cushynumber 25,178]

it will be the same team plus tav for hodson

[philiprfc 1,799]

Would prefer Hererra instead of Miller. He was no great shakes today but Miller's a man down most games. It gets glossed over cause he scores.

Think once Hererra gets used to how physical the game is here, he'll be far more effective in his role. Got into a good position for the chance Tav created but needs to offer more.

[stevotrueblue 382]

IMO Kenny should feature as he will and can get goals,, you can rely on him for that.  Wither you start with him or bring him on later for his energy when the game slows I think the point is the same,, Herrera and Kenny should be the ones rotating at the moment ,,,and give Morelos a run at least.  

[Moody Blue 9,353]

I'd imagine if Walker joined then we'll keep Windass left and Walker would replace Miller to wander behind a front man.  Front two that played today were very poor. 

[RDB14 2,760]

Agree with OP. Herrera was really poor today. 

[TMB 14,167]

Herrera is a target man and unless we're firing balls in to the box for him he'll contribute fuck all on a weekly basis.  Kenny just runs around like a headless chicken as always.  Morelos looked good when he came on and was holding the ball up, laying it off, and making forward runs.  If we're going to play 442 this season then we're probably in need of another striker. 

[theclothmonster 1,707]

Miller should be on the bench, he constantly stops our attacks dead in their tracks. 

[STEPPS BOY 73,916]

If we dont sign a striker then we'll be scrapping wi Hibs for 3rd.

Herrera looks awful..

[DrLaudrup 4,606]

My guess would be that Morelos is taking longer to settle than Herrera. He's only young, speaks no English and is probably lacking a bit of fitness and confidence. If we have other players, I see no point in dropping him in at the deep end if he isnt ready. It seems clear that he is going to play a role for us this season, it is just a matter of easing him into the side in a way that isnt going to drop his confidence. 

[Bigsasasfloppyhair 13,310]

If it's a two miller has to told to play together. Herrera got shat on today drifting all over the shop.

For all of Kenny's useless running around today he did setup the first goal with the clever header to Dorrans.  It's a constant source of frustration as he contributes very little to our overall play but does tend to be involved in the goals.

I know Herrera hasn't started brightly, but I think he's actually got the ability to become an important, useful player for us. Finding a consistent partner will be key and, unless we sign someone else, that's going to have to be Morelos.

I reckon if you get a decent partner next to him he will do a good job.

[centenarystand 2,227]

Was thinking during the game Herrera wasn't showing much whereas the thumb character puts the ball in the net. We need a prolific scorer.

[tannerall 25,935]

There's always Waghorn.........if he concentrates on aiming for the corner flag or stands I think we could get a lot more goals from him

I would have hoped for more changes TBH. Morelos to start without a doubt.

[Junior Soprano 22,428]

Drop Miller 

[.Williamson. 82,211]

Waghorn and Morelos 

[Supersonic 4,654]

Miller frustrates the fuck out of me, without fail
