Big game tonight.
One that Gerrard and the team can't be taking lightly.
We can't be having one eye on Saturday's fixture against Aberdeen.
Although it's 'only' Livingston, they can cause teams a few problems, especially at home on a poor surface.
Are we expecting a lot of changes?
We huffed and puffed against East Fife with our second string though the conditions were horrendous that day.
I'm expecting to see Katic back partnering Helander?
Or will it be Edmundson and Helander after Michael Beale raving about him the other day?
Tav possibly rested for Polster?
Davis rested? A start for Kamara?
Defoe to start?
It's games like this we could also be doing with a third striker.

We do have a 3rd striker and that is Greg Stewart, like it or not. Hence the reason we didn't bring in another out and out striker. No point in paying more wages to a 3rd striker that will never play. So if Morelos or Defoe are injured then it will be Stewart, after that then you would have to accept Aribo, Arfield or Kent playing in that role. Today is about Fernando and the send off he deserves for being such a courageous fighter until the end. football will take care of itself.

I think Greg Stewart was more brought in to play a wide role which i think is the better role for him. Defoe and Morelos are excellent for our two strikers, never in a million years would i imagine we would have a player of Defoes quality as essentially a backup striker. Another out and out striker wouldn't go a miss however as the number of games we will be playing will be a high number.

no way he was brought in to play a wide role, he played wide for Aberdeen and was no where near as good as when played behind the striker for Kilmarnock.

G Mack has stated in his presser that there won't be wholesale changes in the team. Just little tweaks to the starting 11.
