Fraser

McDonald Niculae(or Bayne if permit not sorted)

Ridgers

Duncan

McBain

Cowie

Wyness

Wilson

and a defender!

I'm with IHE's line-up on this one. Definitely need Duncan back in the team to mop things up.

Webb i think would be a good addition i think, international player, looked decent anytime ive seen him play, i'm sure ive seen him play centre half too which were crying out for too.

I think the fact Webb can't get a game for Ross County tells us all we really need to know  :023:

remember the last international we got from County :023:

That doesnt mean he couldnt do a job for us, Graham Bayne couldnt get a game for County before he came to us, look at him now, an integral part of the team who was sorely missed at the weekend.

Whatever the line up is, it has to have Hart in it. When he came on on saturday he added an extra something to the team and he has to start.

                                                  Fraser

                                  Tokely        Munro    Hastings

                                Wilson Cowie  Black    Rankin

                                                      Hart

                                            Bayne    Niculae

Now that we know who's available for the game here's my team for Motherwell:

                                                                        Fraser

Tokely                                    McCaffery                              Munro                            Hastings

                                                                      Duncan 

           

Sutherland                                                                                                              Pattelainenn

                                                                        Black

                                                         

                                              Bayne                                    McDonald

Subs:

Ridgers

Niculae

Wilson

Wyness

Rankin

McBain

I would put on Niculae and Wilson on at about 75 mins as "super subs"

Niculae will start.

In that case then I would swop Niculae for McDonald and put McDonald on towards the end of the game.

Not sure if Bayne is fully fit yet.

                       Fraser

  Tokely    Munro    Mcaffery   Hastings

   Cowie    Black     Duncan    Rankin

                     Niculae

                      Bayne

Swap Bayne for Mcdonald when he starts to get tired.

My team

Fraser

Nicuale

He is the saviour :011:

I should suggest that he isnt match fit and will be on the bench.

I agree with Alex. He should start - hopefully he'll be anxious to show what he can do. 

If it appears he's not match fit he should come off at half time...

                Fraser

Tokely  Caff  Munro  Hastings

                Duncan

Hart            Black      Rankin

        Bayne

                  McDonald

With Niculae coming on for Bayne after about 55 minutes  :002:

                                       Fraser

Tokely                             Munro                               Hastings

                                      Duncan

Wilson            Black                           McBain            Paatelinen

                                                   Nicalue

                                           

                                  Bayne                                

Subs.

Ridgers

Hart

Caff

Sutherland

Rankin

Cowie

MacDonald

Half fit players would be an improvement on the embarassment that turned up last Saturday.

I think he may come off the bench though with maybe Bayne if fit starting with Macdonald.

Back five pick themselves unfortunately.  Burt controversy is never far away.

The midfield need some injection of pace, passion, skill and belief.

Maybe start with Bazza ----Hart----Black----Patti, Rankin was useless on Saturday as was McBain. I'll give Barry the benefit of the doubt that it was his off day, maybe the occasion got to him. Zander though should be looking to feature at some point, after the hour markand Russeldinho should be there or thereabout.

What does that mean in terms of the line up............look no further Charlie, here it is:-

                 

fraser

Rosscoe          Caff        Munro         Morgan

Bazza            Hart         Black          Paatti

            Macdonald        Bayners

Marcus

Zander

Russeldinho

Hastings

these are the most likely to feature later in the game

Whatever the team is CC needs to reign Rossco in a bit runs down the wing are all well and good but on Saturday the guy looked more like he was playing as center forward than the right back he was meant to be. We don't have Dods to cover his feck ups any more.

I would be much happier to see him (Rossco) in central defence and coming forward for set pieces....

Rossco makes some good plays down the wing when Barry is there to overlap with. The only problem at the moment is that Caff is still trying to gain confidence and is therefore not as quick as Dods was at filling in on the right. When we get back to an attack minded passing game all will come good.

TM4TJ and SMEE, you dont have the regulatory 3 U-21's in your squads.

Alex, mine is the team, not a squad, and they won't be getting a game therefore no point in showing them :blah01:

Ok so, I think there are 17 in a squad and three are U21, you need to drop one of your 'team' to fit in Ridgers + 2 U-21's    :blah01: :blah01:

My team

Fraser

Nicuale

He is the saviour :011:

Not sure I'd bother with Fraser.

I'd go with...

Niculae.

Then when he's knackered after 70mins, throw on McDonald.

McDonald's built like our new tank - Donald won't be able to lift him let alone throw him on. If Bayne is fit:

          Fraser

Tokely McCaffrey Munro Hastings

  Hart        Duncan        Black       

     

                          Wyness

          Nikulae Bayne

I would go with Bayne & Niculae up front for sure.

From P&J Online......

Charlie Christie will not make wholesale changes to his Caley Thistle team for tomorrow's trip to Motherwell.

In the aftermath of the Highland club's opening day 3-0 defeat at home to Rangers, the Inverness manager hinted he would change personnel for the Fir Park encounter.

But he is intent on giving the majority of the starting XI a chance to redeem themselves after their below-par display in the season opener.

One change could be the inclusion of Romanian forward Marius Niculae, who was given clearance to play for Caley Jags at an SFA tribunal on Wednesday.

"It would be ludicrous to make wholesale changes at this stage," said Christie.

"We have midfield options but the potential options up front are out of my hands. I will certainly look at making one or two changes, but I have also to give players the opportunity to bounce back.

"The good thing about our players is they do not usually have a run of bad games. I would say we are among three or four Premier League teams who had a disappointing start to the campaign."
