Orinoco Posted 23 hours ago Report Share Posted 23 hours ago Alot of chat about resting players for this game. Last season the chat was how it appeared we did not take cup games seriously by playing weakened teams. We cant afford to take Stenny lightly they appear to have started their season well. Play our strongest team, win the game early if possible and then withdraw players for rest. Every game we play brings more understandings and relationships between players, which improves the team structure and unity. Something that improves our chances against an up comming top side. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutey. Domestic cups and league are our priority. The Euro run is a bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted 18 hours ago Report Share Posted 18 hours ago I agree about starting a strong 11, but I don't think putting someone like Whyte in the lineup will weaken us. I'm guessing Hodge will also be making an appearance at some stage too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that there are benefits to get from playing more games but AJ mentioned in one of his interviews about the drawback of not being able to train and practice the tactics physically. So when you look at how we are playing now, without being able to practice, with our injury list and hopefully with couple new players to be added, we are going to be in for another enjoyable season I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago I'd certainly be starting the likes of Connelly, Wilson, Knight Lebel, Whyte and Vogt for this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motherwell Daft Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Im all for giving some game time to Whyte, Wells, and a few more young outfield players via some sub minutes but truly Connolly gives me the fear, not a fan, we need to progress here so Id play Poulson all day long. if we stick to our principles of possession control we should win and progress but please no Connolly!

I take your general point but doubt if Wells will feature as he now plays for Linfield. Maybe a bit of game time for Zander McAllister from the bench? Matty Connelly? I must admit I like to see a bit of height between the sticks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happyhonest Posted 3 minutes ago Report Share Posted 3 minutes ago I take it this will be the same message in house too. Am liking the subtle psychology of it all. Cups are hard remember last year. Also saying he is content with the squad but expects. One or two more. Great messaging to players bringing them together. looking forward to seeing Hodge. Hope one or two are back. Think he said that Thor was back in training though working himself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
