Think they're well be goals in this, they have players that will cause its problems, the physical Kamberi who is a good finisher, Boyle with his pace has made a big difference to them after his return, Allan why his passing, vision and skill, mallan at dead balls or long range, horgan pacy tricky winger
However defensively we can cause them lots of bother too as they aren't that great at the back
My main concern for this one is the absence of Robson... Hoping Butcher and McMullan may be available, dunno if Harkes will be.. Any news on these?
Mallan is out for the next few months apparently
Yip, out for 2 months.
Tele reporting that Butcher Harkes McMullan and Stanton could all be in contention. Personally doubt we'll see Harkes, think Robbie will give Powers another start, but if we can get Butcher back in that's a big positive.
Powers & Butcher for me. Two hard men midfielders dictating the middle of the park.
Shame Robson isn't on that list. Left back is going to be a an issue for this game.
Not seen Powers yet, looking forward to that. By all accounts he's got the physicality that Harkes lacks at times and that's going to be needed in this game.Quote:

Agree, but in some of the games I've seen he can get a bit lost in a battle. If he could add that aggression to his game, great. But from what I've heard, Butcher and Powers have to start this game. I wonder if eventually we might see Harkes in front of those two in the same team for the qualities you've mentioned.Quote:
