Looks like Souttar, Cornelius and Moore out until end of December with Chermiti and Kelly missing this weekend. Also Bailey Rice picked up bad injury in training.
So who will be CB' s this weekend?
21 Nov 2025 15:37:22
Tavernier, Nsiala.
Not seen much of Fernandez maybe him with Tavernier, Djiga loan should be ended in January imo, he started well but then became frightening in most games, should still beat Livingston with a couple at least.
21 Nov 2025 15:42:00
Tav and djigi Aarons and megohma fbs.
21 Nov 2025 15:43:20
Fernandez and Djiga : (.
21 Nov 2025 15:47:57

21 Nov 2025 16:11:18
Mikey Moore out injured ?.
21 Nov 2025 16:35:24
Sterling can play CH. If fit would trust him over Djiga and Fernandez.
21 Nov 2025 16:35:48
Limited options defensively v Livi this weekend due to injuries.
Tav, Aaarons, Djiga, Fernandez, Nsiala, Meghoma.
Sterling hopefully is back soon?
21 Nov 2025 17:40:56
Can't complain to much as we've been ok for injuries up until now. Hopefully it's not contagious ?.
21 Nov 2025 17:53:36
Chermiti missing this weekend?
Aw no woe is me - what in will we do?.
21 Nov 2025 17:58:55
I would give him mins but no way is Nisala starting at the weekend.
21 Nov 2025 18:44:37
Fernandez must be starting, good game to give him a start in, home to Livi.
21 Nov 2025 19:50:37
I wouldn't give Nsiala a game with the medda, did noone watch him get ragdolled by 2 big average st mirren centre forwards last year, or get hooked after half an hour at rugby park? should be handy up against a 6ft 4 lump in yengi tomorrow then?♂️ Bewildered by the clamour on here for him to play, he's decent on the ball but an utter scare defensively, it'll be Tavernier and Djiga at centre half unless Sterling is fit enough and that's the best of a bad lot available at the moment.
21 Nov 2025 20:10:44
Nsiala did have a hard time against the St Mirren forwards but he can't just be discarded because of that. He is a young man who was new to the country and needs to learn what is required and toughen up. By the way he was also fouled for the first goal as given by the ref before VAR interfered and got it wrong.
This was proved on Ref Watch two days later, a programme far more relevant than Collums " It'll Be Alright On The Night " show that he does. We scream for youngsters to get a chance and then want them binned after one or two bad games. God help Curtis if he ever gets a couple of starts.
21 Nov 2025 20:36:56
Totally agree wsl re Nsiala.
People not wanting to even give the boy a chance because he had a couple of bad games, what is that about? If that's the case, Chermiti, Aasgaard, Aarons, Rothwell, Antman, Djiga etc etc etc shouldn't be gave another chance, or are they somehow different? People need to remember his age, he was always going to make mistakes, or was he supposed to be finished article?
21 Nov 2025 20:50:13
At no point did I mention any other young boy and what they can or can't bring to the team, the chat was about centre halves and in particular for tomorrow, if you guys want to play a centre half who has shown he isn't strong enough to deal with our game then crack on, I don't rate the boy, and you don't need to be the finished article but if you want to win leagues then signing a big raw boy with no experience and chucking him in like a lamb to the slaughter against big burly centre forwards who bully you all day long isn't the way to do it, he may well go on and do well in a league more technical than ours but he's not going to cut it here.
21 Nov 2025 22:26:17
I hope we go back to 4-3-3, but I suspect it'll be 3-4-3 to start.

It's not the fans that don't fancy him Boy it's the head coaches, he has hardly featured at all and that tells its own story, I'd prefer a more natural centre half to come in tomorrow, we are short in height and physicality if Tav plays there, I'd play Fernandez, it's Dija that concerns me but not much options at present.
22 Nov 2025 01:02:38
Jacky there's no clamour for him mate, just don't think a young lad should never be given a chance because a few mistakes, what kind of message does that send. I get the chat was about tomorrow and CH, was just pointing out that our team is littered with players that have made mistakes, nobody's calling for them to not get another opportunity.
He is inexperienced and raw, but you only get experience one way, that's to play. Probably just agree to disagree on this one eh mate ?.
22 Nov 2025 08:28:02
Rose only because of Martin, played under Clement and impressed earlier on, mistakes would always happen, Nsiala has great potential.
22 Nov 2025 09:07:25
He hasn't featured yet under Rohl either My star, nor did Clement and Ferguson play him, sorry Clement played him a couple of games, and that's been about it. so in my opinion whilst again on here it makes a topic of discussion to say give the boy a chance and he's unfairly treated,
But until he is played by a head coach there is nothing fans can do, and each of these head coaches obviously don't think he's ready and that's a fact.
22 Nov 2025 10:01:25
Rosevale, Clement played him about a dozen times, you said Ferguson didn't, but he did as well, only Martin, Rohl brought him back into the first team squad, a fact? no fact here.
22 Nov 2025 11:32:00
He's hardly featured in a year and a half!
So your argument does not stack up, did Clement play him a dozen times? I remember a couple of games that he was all over the shop then he was taken back out the team, the fact remains with that little game time he has had obviously the coaches don't think he is ready to start, could be physicality or other things.
Won't be a better opportunity to play him today with the injuries but we will see.
22 Nov 2025 11:46:36
But Ferguson did play him, maybe only one game, Clement played him around a dozen like I said Rosevale, it was only Martin that didn't use him.
22 Nov 2025 12:08:50
Great potential? What great potential? Ferguson played him then whipped him off after 30 minutes, can someone tell me the games he impressed in? As I said he's decent on the ball but centre half against spl forwards, he will get bullied all day, if Sterling's fit he should play, if not the 3million pound centre half should play- come back when he's a regular pick for us and i'll hold my hands up and say i'm wrong.
22 Nov 2025 13:10:23
He's had 11 appearances in total and that includes European appearances, and that's in a year and a half, if he's got talent then so far four coaches haven't saw it.
22 Nov 2025 13:21:08
That is your opinion on him Jackboy, it certainly isn't mine.
22 Nov 2025 13:42:59
Just to reiterate, I'm not saying he must play today I don't know what his fitness and sharpness are like after being bombed out of the squad by Martin, what I am saying is that he shouldn't be discarded after a couple of tough games especially when we are in the middle of an injury crisis at centre back.
Last season he actually wasn't supposed to be involved much with the first team but had to be thrown in during yet another injury crisis at centre back.
He did okay most of the time, showed he is quite quick and is good in possession but needs to be more physical. Has he improved in that, we don't know because we haven't seen him since.
22 Nov 2025 13:44:54
Liiam Kelly must have got injured dancing on the tables in kong on tuesday night either that or he's been on the booze for a few days.
