So, looks like 3 at the back for the qualifiers - as we thought, with Boyata & Lustig still at the WC.
If we get through, we'll probably still be playing the same - can't see anyone coming in for the 2nd qualifier either.
No Compper in the later game, not sure of the early one.

Gordon

Hendry
Ajer
Jozo

Looks like we're going for that, to get to the 3rd round of qualifying or penultimate round....wibble.

Apart from Ajer, thats a horrendous defence.

Cannot believe we are going into the CL qualifiers with Jack Hendry at right back :lol:
Have no option.
Ralston - who actually is a RB

I love how we can have a right back who has a decent World Cup, looks fairly sharp and will have had a 2 week rest before our qualifiers, yet we are talking about Ralston or Hendry at right back. :lol:

Gamboa?
Honestly?

Maybe, but Ralston & Hendry have both played there before him - maybe even Armstrong, Boyata & Ajer have too.
Would be a very unlikely turnaround from the Manager imo.

Bitton did well in the qualifiers last year.

I'd have him in ahead of Hendry any day of the week.

In fairness, that's a year ago. When's the last time he played? At least Hendry - for all his faults - has game time behind him and I think he will benefit and learn from his first few months and now has the advantage of a pre-season campaign behind him.

I thought he did ok yesterday against Sparta and would have no real fears around him as we go into the match next week.

It looks like all our big players are sharp and up to speed. As mentioned earlier, Gordon with two big saves yesterday and Forrest, McGregor and Brown seem to have just picked up where they left off at the end of the season. Moussa took his goal well and should have had at least two more, so that's a plus as well.
