[Inigo 33,277]

Patterson will play at LB.

[Inigo 33,277]

'A mess' is a complete exaggeration.

Assuming Tav at CB and Bassey LB

Relying on the 4 forward for a bit of magic when Hagi has been piss poor recently 

Hagi and Arfield as RW and CAM is piss poor.

Aribo being rested is fine but why no Sakala and is Lundstram or Kamara playing as the attacking midfielder?

[Blues Brother 1,144]

That’s not 2 DMs playing 

[bluenoz 32,285]

That must have been some jobby Barisic had!

Davis nowhere to be found again. Strange. Covid?

[Vanoli 4,653]

There’s literally zero chance Tav is playing cb before anyone gets their backs up

Is it?

What would you change?

Sakala for Hagi and Wright for Lundstram.

It's Tav at RB and Patterson LB, surely?

Not sure how those 2 changes qualifies the original selection as a 'mess' in all honesty but each to their own.

[Inigo 33,277]

More importantly, are Dundee United's stars missing?

A right back at left back and a left back at centre back too.

 

Square pegs in round holes in 4 positions

Can't find a starting 11 anywhere.

If Arfield is out RW again I'll be surprised, Gio has put Hagi out there and Arfield has been good through the middle 

Agreed with Sakala but he seems to have a hard on for Hagi

[Blues Brother 1,144]

Finally Lundstrum in his natural position and without Davis bedside him. Look forward to seeing how he does

Aye it probably is, just the way it's been put out lol

It's ok mate. Pretty sure they've been missing since the late 80s.

Hagi will still be RW and Arfield will play as Cam but he’s not very good if we’re honest.

 

[GersInCanada 7,775]

When we have no idea how that XI will line up what chance do the team from Dundee have to figure it out.

All will be revealed in an hour.

Arfield? Think he's done well over the last few weeks tbh, don't think he's the answer going forward but he's showing up players like Hagi, Lundstrum, Wright with his performances 

 

[bluenoz 32,285]

Why have both Simpson and King on the bench?

Take one of them out and put in Defoe or Kelly.

It is a strange lineup. Sakala should be starting.

Squad rotation ready for the fixture pile up? 

I think I'll trust Gio on the team. I'm sure he has a plan.

Don’t recognise many Dundee United players.
