Killie (a)

Well here we go folks. 5 days time the team bus rolls up in Kilmarnock for our first game of the new season.

Watching Killie v Partick I saw nothing to suggest we can't leave with 3 points, but they won't hand them to us, we'll need to take them and that means scoring more goals than they do.

Imo the addition of Sibbald is designed to keep our midfield ticking, Fletcher hopefully the goalscorer we've been waiting for.
Creating chances is still an issue but hopefully we can create enough to get our campaign off to a winning start.

C'mon United 🧡

Cant see there being much difference to the starting line ups from last weekend, barring any major transfers in or out.

I have confidence in Levitt and Sibbald to work well together, but they need someone better than Harkes to help them out, but hope i will be proved wrong on that thought.

Birighitti
Freeman Edwards Graham McMann
Sibbald Levitt Mulgrew Niskanen
Fletcher Watt

Maybe.
Ross will probably play Smith before Freeman though.

I'd be very surprised if the team was any different from Fleetwood tbh. Hopefully Cudjoe is fit.

Is streaming of matches still available this season?

Just saw a facebook message from St Johnstone(WHY???) saying that due to the Saturday afternoon embargo, there will be no streaming during that time slot. Other time slots are being looked at, but i would rather they got past this embargo and allowed those of us that cannot get to many away games to just let us see the games!

I haven’t seen any pre season but meekison did well towards end of season. Levitt aside, midfield doesn’t over enthuse me, still think onus right now on defence to be as resolute as last season, and mulgrew apart, Not much protection ahead of them if he isn’t in midfield.

It's a real hassle for me to arrange to go to an away match and the tickets for disabled fans are usually very limited. Shame.

I believe quite strongly there should be streaming - it’s a massive cash boost for clubs if they can sort this out !!!



Re Saturday I wonder about a 3-4-3 formation


Birighitti
Edwards Graham Mulgrew
Freeman Levitt Sibbald Niskanen
Rory Mc Fletcher Watt

Been said that Tony W is best on the left on a three

I think JR when doing well at Hibs had the 3 forwards firing.


Come on United we need a big start to the season

id prefer to see us start with 3 at back for now if Cudjoe is not fit as I think we are better equipped for that until we get a few more attacking players in, however I suspect he will just start as close as possible to the fleetwood game.

If he does, then the only change id like to see would be Freeman at RB and Smith moved to midfield with Harkes dropping to bench. Harkes has been poor in the 2 pre-season games iv seen and considerably the worst of all players who have played any part in the middle over them.
