    I think it will be

    Schmeichel
    Johnston
    Valle
    Trusty
    CCV
    McGregor
    Hatate
    Bernardo
    Kuhn
    Maeda
    Kyogo

    A bit of a dress rehearsal for the Dinamo Zagreb away game, where I expect that to be the team.

    Hibs at the weekend I think you will see the likes of Scales, Taylor, Engels, McCowan, Forrest and Idah all come back in as we have a quick turnaround to Zagreb on Tuesday at 5:45

    Might end up being a bit of both in that maybe Bernardo starts Wednesday but McCowan is on the bench.

    It looks like the sheep's arses have collapsed, and therefoe, they will be desperate to get things back on track. I expect a few meaty challenges going in but hopefully, our players are given protection from the ref (no laughing at the back)

    I honestly think with both Hatate and Engels starting on the bench v County both start v Aberdeen.. but would be delighted with any of them starting.. hopefully the competition pushes them all..

    Really looking forward to this, combining it with a pre Christmas day out some food and drinks and we have even managed to convince a taxi driver to take a booking and pick us up at the Morrisons after the game :57:

    It be a tough one but 2/3-1 the tic :ynwacelti although if we could score 50 that be better for the potential record… i guess :56:

    I know, and that is good going.

    Now if Engels were to get his shooting boots back on, and to be fair, he was good earlier on and hit the posts a few times, that projected figure could go higher.

    Yeah the money's on first team starts and reserves in against Hibs although definitely tempting to drop Engels for mcCowan and Taylor for valle

    Our squad is the healthiest I can remember it being in a long time.
    We have 3 solid and reliable CBs.
    5 MFs who you could argue all have a good case for claiming a starting place.
    Good cover at LB and RB.
    2 strikers capable of scoring, and a sub keeper with great potential!

    The wide positions is possibly the only area you could say we need strengthening.
    Our starting wingers are excellent, and backups, in Yang, Forrest, and I haven’t given up on Palma yet, are decent.

    McGregor
    Hatate
    Bernardo

    Kuhn
    Idah
    Maeda


    Be a tough game there I think. A lot more than Hampden anyway. Any win will do and a draw wouldn’t be a disaster obviously.

    Don't want Hatate or Engles starting. I'm not expecting the same kind of game as the cup at all and won't be getting as much time on the ball. Has to be Mccowan and Bernardo for me.

    Their goalie has done his hamstring, gonna be out until early next year. Prolly Ross Doohan in goals for them then if that's the case.

    McCowan Bernardo
    Kuhn Kyogo Maeda.​

    I think one of Hatate/Engels will likely start, but this is the team I'd go with, 3-0 us.

    I'd go for that but keep Idah in as well.

    Going by that weather up there pretty constant rain and 50 mile an hour winds it will be blustery conditions, to me would suit Idah more, he can drop in bash people about and link play when it probably won't be total football and likely be a bit messy and scrappy in the midfield.

    Last two games against us we've ripped through them with ease and not allowed them to play so I think they will try something different and probably will go long a lot so be a bit more of a battle.

    Idah as well has 4 goals in the last 4 League games, he has not started back to back League games for us since February/March when he started against Dundee and then Hearts. So even for him in scoring form seems harsh to constantly only let him start 1 game.
