First Team V Selik
Fod
Tav, Crooks, Senderos, Wallace
Barton Rossietter Halliday
Waggy Forrester
Garner
Second Team/ Subs Options
Gilks
Wilson, Kiernan, Hodson
Windass, Holt, Krank, McKay
Doddo, Miller, O Hal
If we get Senderos in then we are lookin very solid at the back alongside big crooks, who is a class act if you have seen his highlights on youtube, we want big physical presence going to the piggory hence putting both them.
Solid Hard working thought tackling midfield.
and up top, skill pace, power and predator.
Thoughts of fellow bears? Remember this is only IMO!

Too early for crooks the guy hasn't kicked a ball in months.

MV3LO if this is who you'd like to play then as you say, your opinion to which you're well entitled. I would say however that unless Crooks and Senderos play together for us on Friday night then there is no way MW will play an untried pairing vs. Celiac. Personally can't see that happening as Crooks plays his first game for 5 months tonight for the under 20's and don't believe he'll be rushed back and Senderos might not even sign for us as another site is saying there is a German club interested in him. At the moment it looks like the ever dependable (not) Kiernan and Wilson will play and we'l l just have to hope that they play like they did the last time we played them (or even better) and that young Jordan has a great game sitting in front of them. From the evidence of Saturday I don't think the midfield three you've picked works and lacks pace- for me Halli day seems a bit lost at present so I'd pick wee Holt if he gets a game on Friday with Niko on as sub for him. I'd go with your front three and have either Bazza, Kenny, MOH or Do doo as our 2 impact subs depending on where the game's at. I'd love Windass to be a n"other option but don'think he'll be fit enough. Like you just my opinion and as MW regularly says "it's a game of opinions".

Really wish people would stop with this crooks obsession.
Give the guy a chance to settle in and show what he's got before declaring he is a 'class act'.
As of yet he hasn't kicked a ball.

Like the response Liverpool Ger, the reason I went with that type of team is on an ideal situation, everyone fit healthy and know each others game that is a strong defence solid compact team that could get us through the first 45-60 mins and then we could mix it up and bring on our 3 subs and go into a more attacking formation.
you made some very good points, like the dialogue roll on the trip to the Piggory, canny wait to see this game, been to long missing from our game in Scotland, thank god it back, just hope we hold up because unfortunately I think that Selik are looking a decent outfit, better than when under Ronny and they will only improve with time and more transfer windows. So it going to be a very interesting season ahead, fingers crossed that we march on to 55!

Why has the top got 5 star's? . I know clubs put a star on for champs league, European cup wins.
23 Aug 2016 14:02:55
That's what you get for being the world's most successful club. Did you not know that? In the words of Connor McLeod there can be only one!
23 Aug 2016 14:37:59
no danny Wilson? do people watch our games?
23 Aug 2016 14:41:19
For every ten League titles each star represents i'm pretty sure.
23 Aug 2016 14:18:09
we have won the league 54 times loki each star represents ten titles!
I don't think crooks or senderos will play at cb but I think halliday should be bropped and holt played aswell as forrester they two bring energy to the game both close down high up the pitch to put teams under pressure. with the steadfast rossiter sitting behind them covering our defence.

Gilks
Hodson Wilson new CD Waldo
Barton Windass Rossiter
Waggy Garner Nico
If Crooks is fit I'd swap him for nico then switch his position with windass
That's a big powerful team either way I'd have no fear against "them"
23 Aug 2016 19:25:37
No Tav Blueshaun 🤔?
23 Aug 2016 20:48:05
Hi, I'll have a pop at the team to play Celtic seein as we're doing it. Here go'sðŸ‹ðŸ¿
Gotta be Fod in goal
Tav Senderos Wilson Wallace
Barton Rossiter (I'd like Holt)
Windass
Waghorn Forrester
Garner
Mckay for Forrester
Niko for Windass
Miller or Doddo for Garner.
We've got to take the game to them. Nothing to lose.
23 Aug 2016 20:59:13
I like Tav's buckanearing style but I think Hodson is far more solid and I think he's a better bet against The Thumb, Dembele or Sinclair. Horses 4 courses. We've got a great squad now we should use it.
23 Aug 2016 14:05:36
Playing Barton rossiter and Halliday at same time is a bad idea imo they all sit bit deeper and non off them have that wee creative pass when we get at the 18 yard box.
