Think Clarke will go with this now. 

                 Marshal.   

     Mctominay  Cooper Gallagher

O' Donnell.  Mclean mcGregor.  Robertson

                       McGinn

               McBurnie.   Dykes

 

Fraser, Shankland and Paterson to come off the bench.

I thought he would go for Mclean unstead of Jack but got the other 10.. I expect this formation too. I cant see many attacks down our right hand side.

Don't know how the BBC got the idea that it's a 4-4-2. That's definitely a 3-5-2 with O'Donnell and Robertson on the wings.

Unless he's playing with a midfield diamond. 🤔

Im not buying the Dykes love in by some, he was half decent, but thats it. The praise he was getting was vastly over the top. Having him and McBurnie up top is a strange prospect, and theres almost no creativity in this team.

Marshall

McTominay Gallagher Cooper

O'Donnell Jack McGregor Robertson

McGinn

Dykes McBurnie

Two strikers is interesting although two target men/hold up players - surely Dykes/McBurnie plus Shankland is a better fit.

3-5-2 is worrying.

If this works, fair dues.

Reading the Israelis have a right back at left back or the other way around ; so they have their own issues as well!

Don't see how that 11 of ours will create much?!

Och well, let's see.

If we lose this, I would hope he would consider his position.

Playing players in their natural position is surely the first rule of football management.

He's too slow at making changes too ; if we're behind watch him wait til the 70th minute before making a sub or a change.

Then again, if it works, and we play great - hat off and he kens better than most of us.

Not optimistic at all about tonight.

Clarke must have wrote all players names on paper and slung them on table then picked first 11 

Did you see who was left to choose from? 

It looks like a 4-4-2 to me (definitely hope it is) with a midfielder on either side covering the full backs when they go forward.

Why does no one think it will be 4 at the back? Robertson, Cooper, Gallagher and O'Donnell? Then a 433 or 442 with the rest of the players

 

There's no wide midfielders so definitely won't be 4 in midfield. 

Very slight possibility that it's some kind of 3-upfront...maybe McBurnie and McGinn behind Dykes.

I'd imagine it'll be more of a 433 with McGinn basically given free range to do his thing. It'll be madness if McTominay is played deeper than O'Donnell.
