Havana Saint Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 Given our reliance on him I wouldn't risk Macca simply for a Euro game. Massive game, but I agree with you. We can at times be one dimensional with Macca. 4-4-2 is pretty dated for European football. The last thing we need on Thurs is being 1 down with 45 to go and Macca playing on the half way line wanting a square go wi folk. Tommy will know his selection was a huge factor in Trakai scoring 2 so early last week. Even if we do concede early, there is no need to panic - doesnae change anything from our objective. If we set up well and we pass well and are courageous in our play we can easily break their defence. Confident of scoring twice. Players and mgt need to show the skill, discipline and courage. Fear is weak. COYS Miguel Simao, Norsaint, garydavidson and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 I reckon Macca will be on the bench. If things look like they're going well without him, there's no point in risking him. Bring him on in the second half if things are looking desperate. Pretty worrying though that we're having to rely so heavily on a 35-year-old striker with a fairly bad injury record. If we risk him and he gets crocked, or he gets injured in one of the other early season games, we're facing a season with just Kane and Cummins as our options. I'm not generally in favour of breaking the tight-fists policy, but we're in massive need of investing in a proper striker who will make a difference to the team, and not just another stop-gap bench-filler effort in the Fallon/Iwelumo mould. We need to splash out on MOH, who fills three roles, has the attributes we need, and is a proven performer. It's a shame his wages are obscene.

south inch Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 Away and it will be Norkopping in Sweden week on Thursday. If that's what happens we could just nip over the Baltic and get acclimatised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PanamaSaint Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 A 2-0 away win for Saints must be the most popular bet in Perth. What are the odds for that ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babychunder Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 12/1 at Bet Victor. Saints generally fav to win the game, but Trakai very short odds to go through. So bookies expecting a Saints win that isn't good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ex-montrosesaintee Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 Can I just say thank you to all of those travelling, spending their hard earned cash on giving the team the support they deserve. Hope you get to see another memorable European night for our great wee club. It would be greatly appreciated if you could partake in some raucous singing on behalf of those unable to make it. 541ntees, Shibbydoo, HOODLUM65 and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
