Players should be right up for it after blowing the chance to win against Morton. The fear in this game though is of Faissal coming back to haunt us and of course Dobbie. I'd like to see us go with the same setup as we started with in Greenock but with a couple of player changes. Control the game in midfield and we should create chances. I'd bring Todd in for McDaid. Not been that impressed with McDaid so far and was with my early glimpses of Todd. Todd playing against his old team will surely be up for it and a chance for him to get a start in his natural position. Other change would be Dorrans in for McGowan. Exactly. Play Todd in his best position and tell our players that they will be on double training sessions for a month if either Dobbie or Faisal score! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He convinced his Aberdeen players that there was an Old Firm conspiracy and everyone was out to get Aberdeen. It got his players paranoid and wound up and helped them find success with relatively modest resources. Psychology is a useful tool to put to wins on the board but I imagine every manager is trying to use it in their own way. I think psychology was pivotal in our deefiant season. 25 point deduction, make-shift squad, player coming out of retirement, signing junior players and a striker playing with a rump steak in his boot. The odds were stacked against us beyond anything we’ve ever had to suffer in our past yet we go on our best ever undefeated run. I think the injustice of the 25 point deduction and similar to the Fergie example, that the SFA were out to get us, gave us the psychological GIRFUY to be hyped up for every game. Strangely, if the SFA had awarded us the standard 10 point deduction instead, I think we’d have really struggled. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh great we've got the curse of the former striker to worry about as well as the striker who loves to play and score against us. Tim Keyes should stick £1m on Dundee not keeping a clean sheet on Friday to help pay for the new stadium. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that he's 'fit' and raring to go (but not for 90 mins). IMO he might start and last 60 mins max. Edited 25 September 2019 by Dondeh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby123 Posted 25 September 2019 Report Share Posted 25 September 2019 We need a midfield to compete and tackle. We are so poor there I think we need to play 5 across the middle. It will also allow them to pass the ball square all evening-4 others there to pass it to without any actual progress up the field. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee_Dee Posted 25 September 2019 Report Share Posted 25 September 2019 I’m giving this one a miss. Normally on a Saturday I would go, but the combination of it being a Friday, a bit of a trek, a bogey ground, our dodgy form and it being live on TV make it a no brainier to stay home and watch it while having a few beers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a betting guy, Cobra, but surely that's not a bet that's going to give him good odds, is it?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had a look Woodstein and Queens are 4/11 to find the net so a £1m bet would rake in a tidy £363k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that we should start Todd against his former team and in his favoured position in a free role behind the striker and see what he has to offer .
