Team for county

[fraser]

Finally the game we have all been waiting for. I just wonder what the team is going to be. Surely it will be a mostly unchanged squad with the exception of eagle. He has put in 2 really poor performances so surely its time to put mcbain or ross in.

I would drop Eagle, he hasnt impressed me so far, and everytime McBain comes on he changes the game completey.

FECK

I'd give Eagle the first half at least, he usually starts but tends to fade... (fitness?), but is effective to start with. I think the reason he is getting critisised so much is that he's not very good when it comes to taking players on. He needs to work on his physical strength. He's also left footed and has been playing too much on the wrong side.

However, he's a better, passer, crosser of the ball than we have had here ... the Norwich fans saw him as poor mans Beckham I guess if you play him to his strengths then he will be fine.

What I don't understand is that he has played several times for Norwich reserves as a defender. Even I think I could bully him and pass him!!

I'd expect us to stick with the same XI that played yesterday:

--------------------Esson-------------------

--Proctor---Bulvitis---Munro---Djebi-Zadi---

--Hayes-----Cox-----Stratford-----Eagle----

--------------Sanchez-----Foran-------------

Sanchez and Foran did well up front yesterday - Sanchez took his goal well and showed some good touches and Foran was dangerous and made a goal for Cox out of very little. If Foran is at his best, he will be a real danger for County.

I can see County being up for this game more than us - I'd imagine that the importance of it will be ground into their players more thanit will the guys we have, most of whom aren't Scottish or from the area. Hopefully Granty and Rosscoe will get everyone up to speed.

Our most important player will probably be Lee Cox, who looks to be developing into a fantastic player, for a 19 year old to be so influential in the middle of park is rare. He also gets forward well, he scored yesterdayand had another great chance in the second half. Our defence has also been pretty solid - it was only Gary Harkins who scored against us on Sunday and I don't think County have anyone that good.

Hoepfully County take a good support through - do their fans think they could fill the away end, 2200? I'd hope that we manage to pretty much fill out our end for this one.

Would rather have Vigurs on our left than Eagle though.

Can't wait for this game! I reckon it will be the same team as at Dundee. I'm just gutted that Tokely isn't back for this one as I'm not the biggest fan of Proctor. I would play Eagle from the start - he seemed to play better against Dundee, so maybe it's a fitness thing, but McBain should come on at some point in the second half.

[caleytillidie]

Same team as saturday apart from eagle. He has shown nothing so far for me and its time to get mcbain back in. He would offer a lot more attacking wise as well as being stronger in the tackle in what is going to be a very physical game.

[DALNEIGHCALEY]

We could put out a team of under 17s and still thrash the minks .

I've been looking forward to this since the fixtures were announced. Seems to be a recurring theme here, wasn't at Dundee but haven't really been impressed with Eagle, would be tempted to go with Ross on the right and Hayes on the left rather than bring in McBain. Ross has more pace than McBain and I would like to see Cox and Stratford just winning the ball and giving it to one of our wingers to have a real go at their full backs.

Just what is it in the water in Dornoch that makes you lot despise Eagle so much?

Give the boy 2 games and if he doesn't impress then drop him?

Some people are just too impatient, and hearing your constant calls to drop him is just getting boring now. Almost as bad as Renegade last season with Munro.

Is Tokely suspended for the game? He's available for the Albion game according to the BBC.

He's only banned for league games so he can play in the cups

[DornochCaley]

So because he has played ***** but theres a chance he might play well we keep playing him? That doesnt work. Everytime McBain has came on he has done better than Eagle. So the logical thing is to start McBain. IF it doesnt work, fine.

last game without Rossco :)

Eagle has been dissapionting so far, and everytime Mcbain has come on he has played really well so why not start him? If mcBain is struggling playing the full 90 mins then take Eagle on.
