No Miller?

I've always wanted us to play 4-2-3-1 as i believe it gives us the strength in midfield to totally boss any SPL team, without shunting Davis to the right wing. I don't believe any of our realistic combinations (McCulloch/Edu, McCulloch/Davis, Edu/Davis) in a 4-4-2 is particularly effective

I'd play Miller at Ibrox i guess

McGregor

Bougherra Weir Webster

Broadfoot Davis Edu Naismith Papac

Jelavic Miller

I would like to try a 3-5-2 out too see how it would work.

With all due respect mate! that side is never going to happen, unless you have got a magic solution to get Webster to actually pull on a Blue shirt.

Your idea of playing a 3-5-2 is worthy of consideration if we had the personell to play it...which we haven't at this point in time.

Haha.

Yeh mate Webster will be off very soon, just my team if he was not so injury prone.

I think the wing backs would be the problem positions, Papac could do a job there but maybe not effective enough as need be.

I would not trust Broadfoot, Whittaker or Foster to do anything tbh :(

Whittaker could definitely do a job on the right of that bank of 5 midfielders because although he is a fucking shocking DEFENDER as such, he can still do well tracking back as a double defender where he can get time to get close to an attacker, which of course is where he falls down as a defender at the moment when he gives the opposition wide men all the space in the world to whip crosses into our box.

Broadfoot would not be in my side as a midfielder at all and Foster would need to be coached a bit better to be in there also, but we do have players who could fit a 3-5-2 system...The problem being that if we changed now, it would probably definitely cost us the title.

It will be very interesting next season if Coisty is the manager and see if he has the balls to pick these young players we have and mould them into a 3-5-2 playing side.

Really depends on the opposition and whether we are home or away - I wouldn't give the opposition too much respect and I'd let them worry about us rather than us about them, which we do far too often.

I'd be tempted to do something experimental like

McGregor

Bougherra Weir Webster

Weiss Davis McCulloch Naismith Wylde

Jelavic Miller

More chance of you getting a game than that pretender, Webster!
