killieblue Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Macdonald O’donnell Findlay Broadfoot Taylor jones power dicker Ndjoli Boyd. Brophy if findlay isn’t fit yet then I would like to give Higgins a shot but it will most likely be Scott Boyd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brophy (Ndjoli to replace him or Boyd if not going to well) I think Ndjoli will play a more attacking forward role rather than a wide midfield. Also think Burke has shown he is still good enough and should have a shout.at starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piffer Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 I’d start NdJoli upfront with Boyd. St Johnstone aren’t a team renowned for pace. Ndjoli against a slower back four could do some damage. Burke was one of our better performers but I suspect we may go with Rory in the midfield. Id start JJ based on what he can do but he showed nothing in the League Cup. If his heads out his arse he could make the difference. If not leave him out MacDonald, SOD, Broadfoot, Findlay, Taylor, Power, Dicker and Boyd pick themselves at the moment IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillieDIV Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 I'd have: McDonald SOD Broadfoot Findlay Taylor Burke Power Dicker Jones Boyd Erwin I was really tempted to have Ndjoli in for Jones but St Johnstone fans reckon Comrie will be starting at right back for them, and I'd really doubt he's had a good nights sleep since the last time he faced Jones. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secret Squirrel Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) McDonald SOD Broadfoot Findlay Taylor Burke Power Dicker Ndjoli Boyd Erwin Until we know what is happening with Jones I don't think it is right to play him. We need someone committed and I think you would be hard pressed to exclude Ndjoli considering the preseason he had. Boyd and Erwin will give us physical presence up front while Burke and Ndjoli should give us the balls into the box for the front two to feed off.

This is the team for me as well. Jones vs St Johnstone last season was one of the greatest performances I've seen by one of our players - got to give him the nod regardless of his transfer situation. If it's not working at HT, we at least know we've got Ndjoli to come on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C4mmy31 Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 St Johnstone will be without RB Richard Foster for tomorrow, he has a suspension to carry over from 22/05/2018. We should be looking to exploit them down the right as the back up is still Aaron Comrie, whom Jones tore apart in the last home game against them.....

Brian Easton is injured too so we should play Burke on the other wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillieDIV Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 "We've got lots of players who threaten to be good players, this is the season that they have to become good players." Love hearing that. You'd think that Kiltie/Thomas/Frizz etc will be watching that and just taking so much motivation from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C4mmy31 Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Squad News Adam Frizzell is out after a clean up operation on his knee on Thursday. Provisional Kilmarnock squad: MacDonald, Millen, O'Donnell, Waters, Taylor, Broadfoot, S Boyd, Findlay, Dicker, Power, Wilson, McKenzie, Thomas, Jones, Erwin, Burke, K Boyd, Brophy, Kiltie, Ndjoli, Mackay.

historyman Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 If they have young and inexperienced full backs in both positions I would start with Jones and Njoli and then have Burke come on later in the game. We need to get off to a good start today and keep up the momentum in home games that we built up last season. A win by any margin will be the perfect start.

If SSC doesn't think JJ is committed, he won't play him. If he does, then he will.

SM21 Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 MacDonald Sod. Broadfoot. Findlay. Taylor Burke. Power. Dicker. Ndjoli Erwin. Boyd. Based on preseason Jones doesn't deserve a place ATM. Ndjoli dangerous coming off the left and arriving late into the box. Erwin and brophy a bit of a toss up but would guess Erwin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Souleycouley93 Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Interesting to see McKenzie doesn’t make anyone’s team. Clarke likes him but I agree with most that Burke is deservedly ahead of him at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
