A fresh start ,no Willy starting 🤞 a big pitch with spaces to run into, the chance to revert to early season winning style and home a team that's playing shite. What could possibly go wrong .

Not really looking forward to this one given the form we have been in. But its a home game for me, so I will be going regardless.

Thankfully Kilmarnock arent Celtic and McCann seems to be struggling to get any consistency out of his team, so should be a slightly more level playing field this week.

Always nice to win these games as it means I get the bragging rights locally, but will be happy just to see some sort of structure and improvement around our performance.

Saving grace is that Hibs play Falkirk, so even if we do lose heavily, we cant go bottom of the league as one of them will still be below us!

Your point about wanting to see an improved performance over a victory is pretty much what I said ahead of the Dundee defeat. And that gets to the heart of the issue here. Most of us aren’t complaining simply because of the results; we’re complaining because the performances have been awful and are getting progressively worse.

Aye.

Not expecting the team to reach Jens levels anytime soon, if at all this season.

But Id like to see a shape, structure, patterns of play, any evidence really that we are trying to implement the clubs/managers philosophy.

We really havent controlled games in the way we did last season, even in the games we have played well.

Thats led to more pressure on our defence and in our box, so no surprise we have conceded some cheap goals.

We either need to get back to the fundamentals that made us successful last year, or just not play out from the back quite as much, especially when teams have shown they are ready and equipped to deal with that.

The little chipped ball into midfield or into wide areas seems to have been disgarded in favour of the long ball to Seb. Whether thats because Paulsen just isnt as good at it, or Alfred doesnt want him playing it, I dont know. But there are still opportunities to find space on the pitch that we are not utilizing right now.

My line-up i think would be with 2 positions i am not decided on

                        PAULSEN

SOD/JGR.   JKL.  MOORMANN. LONGELO

                    HODGE.  FADINGER 

                         LOWRY

MASWANHISE/KANGA.               SAID

                         SEB P-H

I was tempted to bench Fadinger as he has been a bit off form.  I'm also not sure what script is with JT. only way he can get a move is if he performs on the pitch.  That aint be happening for a while.

Will take any victory,  just as long as we can get 3pts
