How did you rate Jim McIntyre's team selection, substitutions and performance today?

2 points, took off forward and put on defender to play for the draw we were worse than ever after that pinned in our own half

He got them all wrong tonight. After the three subs we were a much weaker side. Should have left Nelson on and never put O'Dea in Midfield... surely we had better options on the bench to come on then?

Agree with all you say very strange subs We were right under pressure after these subs came on

[BCram]

We spent the first half pressing the opposition whenever they got the ball. We spent the second half once Curran went off running away from their ball carrier and covering some imaginary area of threat. Absolutely must sort out how to press higher up the pitch. ODea is never the correct subbie for the  Admiral IMO.

Correct starting line up,however terrible subs and tactics 2nd half.Lucky not to be 4-2 down by the time we got the pen

[chomp my root]

Great start but was surprised he took off Curran (unless he was injured) which seemed to have a huge impact. Can sort of see why we went ultra defensive after that, we picked up a point against one of the better teams in the league and at half time looked like we could have got 3. A point is maybe fortunate but they owed us. JM gets a pass from me but not too marks.

Starting lineup fine. Odea is never a midfielder, and when he came on (correct me if I’m wrong) but never once saw him warm up during the game. No athletism to play that role.... like him as a CB however. Nelson sub was far too early in the game. 

[Spiritof62]

Only Jmac thinks DO can do a job in midfield, it’s not the players fault, the game passed him and Gowser by.

I’m so pissed off once again we have a manager making the same mistakes that’s costing us vital points.

For me took Curran  and Nelson off never had a outlet after that. put ourselves under pressure never got out our half.

I marked 4. We would have lost this game with the previous players, he has brought in guys who play their heart out, just what we need in this situation. I believe he had to use subs due injuries and tiredness(Most of the new players were not regular starters). Killie were fitter, the players they signed both tired as well

[SM1893]

For me, it was very clear that our legs had gone around the hour mark. The only criticism for me is O'Dea in midfield. A pass was made to him and was slightly astray and he struggled to get to the ball. That is definitely not a role for him.

I'm actually going to applaud JM for realising we couldn't play our pressing game in the 2nd half and when the chances came around we did look dangerous on the counter. I think the moans and groans came from us being so good in the 1st half to being under pressure for most of the 2nd half.

2nd Half - Other than one real hairy moment, where it looked like a bit of a scramble (from my seat in the BC), I thought we were fairly comfortable and managed Killie quite well.

The penalty and Hamilton result is a sickener, but Livi are in the middle of their sticky patch so I'm not too despondent.
