Would have played Halliday, think he's been immense for us recently! Great choice to play Middleton though as I feel we will need his pace tonight as will play on the break!

Whats the point in signing a player for 2million if hes never going to get a good run in the team? Middleton has plenty of time hes only 18

Did you see him against st Mirren?

[RosscoRFC87 216]

Probably down to Candeias being unavailable for Sunday. Rotates the squad a bit more and gives Middleton his first start of the Season since Ayr.

[BlueAvenger 10,373]

With Kent and Lafferty missing our attacking options are poor. This will be a tough game and I would take 0-0.

What's the point in playing Grezda when the game will suit Middleton? Just because we spent £2m on a player doesn't mean you have to start him at the detriment of the team!

Based on what I've seen Middleton looks better right now.

The full team were shite against st mirren first half?

[Amac9 2,060]

Attacking wise the bench is non existent. 

[IpswichGer 3,819]

Yayy. Katic.

 

Don't go being a dick and playing like a Donkey as I have done nothing but moan about Worral!! ?

[BlueMe 25,327]

Happy with Katic starting again. I would've played Grezda before Middleton personally, but can't complain about that line-up, all thing's considered.

[They Gnu 11,553]

Middleton is quick strong and direct, hope he has a stormer tonight.

[SeparateEntityMyArse 53,983]

Katic in from nowhere isn't ideal, but if it's him or Worrall tonight then fair dos. Flanagan LB instead of Halliday ?.

Grezda must still be really struggling, though perhaps it's more a case of Middletons speed and directness getting support to Morelos that bit quicker.

Down to the players now to make it work.

[LegendofCoop 17,434]

That's the team I was hoping for!!!

Intae them Ruskie bastards, Rangers!!!    

[DC76 427]

Strange timing for Katic's return..hope he's not as rusty as he was in his Hamilton outing

[Broxi 11,533]

Can't watch the game tonight I'm gutted. I like the starting XI though, hopefully get a win. 

[MrMckee 3,430]

Liking the look of the team don't finish work till 5.30 gonna miss the first 20 mins or so!!!

[Supersonic 4,658]

That spartak team looks strong as fuck on paper

[jjbscotty12 3,577]

Not one striker on bench

[bluenoz 31,060]

Worrall benched for silly comments perhaps.

Strange timing Katic starting albeit i think hes better than Worral. Also think this game would be perfect for Ryan Jack so a bit surprised he is not starting. But S.G. knows more about each player behind scenes/training etc.
