David123 Posted November 2, 2016 Report Share Posted November 2, 2016 Tough game away to Hearts, I'd be tempted to go 5 across the middle as we seem a better side, Clark Foster Joe Ando Easton Alston Pates Millar Craig Swanson Macca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelly78 Posted November 2, 2016 Report Share Posted November 2, 2016 I'd go 5 in midfield as well, but I think I'd play Kane up front on his own. Macca up front as a lone striker doesn't work IMO, as he doesn't have the pace or mobility to stretch the defence by getting in behind, running the channels etc, which Kane offers. He also has the habit of dropping deep and trying to get involved in midfield, which means we can be left with no one up top as an out ball. Kane's best 2 performances in recent times have been away at Tynecastle last year and at Ibrox last week , both as a lone striker, so if we are playing 1 up front, I think his game suits it better than Macca. Clark Foster Ando Joe Easton Alston Paton Millar Craig or Coulson Swanson Kane I'd play Swanson in a free role behind Kane to give him a bit more freedom, knowing that he has Paton and Millar covering. If it was anyone but Hearts I'd like to see Coulson get a chance in place of Craig on the left, as he's looked fairly sharp in his recent cameos. The seethe Liam is able to generate from the stands at Tynecastle is brilliant though, so wouldn't be too upset if he did get the nod!

R.B.B:- Adz Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 It's not a bad arguement for folk to be having.. With Scobbie back and Watson well on his way back and a striker coming in January, competition for places when everyone is 100% fit is going to be fierce.. It also bodes well for a cup run that we have a strong squad when the games are coming thick and fast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I have been to Tynie, there is always a mix of people who sit in the seat specified on their ticket and some that dont Of course, particularly when a sell out, all it takes is for a few to sit where they please and the knock-on effect is considerable Edited November 3, 2016 by Edstar101 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilgour Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 Having to miss this "home" match for me,because of health but I know Hearts fans not confident.We need to attack their suspect defense and would love to see Kane selected.Not a prolific striker,but runs the channels all day.Good luck guys.
