    I have a feeling he isn't going to play enough games to get it, though I could be wrong.

    I think Brendan will start to rest him more once the league is over so that he's fresh for the qualifiers.

    If for instance our last three league fixtures of the season don't include the Huns, then we'll probably rest many of our first team.

    9 games left, minimum. No guarantee he'll play in all of them or score in the ones he plays in. I can see where you're coming from tbh.

    That will depend on how long the unbeaten run lasts. Ironically the most meaningless games of our season, could become the most important.

    Isn't that a song by Hanson?

    I was discussing this with my dad the other day.

    I'd love to go unbeaten, but because our qualifiers are so early, I really want the players to be rested well in advance of them so if that means giving them time off before the official end of the season then so be it.

    For me the CL is just too important: the money we make from it, the prestige that allows us to hold onto our better player and to attract greater quality players to the squad. Whereas, in the grand scheme of things, records in Scotland aren't really worth much.

    That said, obviously I want to do both. Finish the second unbeaten and qualify for the CL.

    Mbappe, do wop do do do wop.

    We need t buy him so we can sing that. The transfer fee would be worth it for that alone. :giggle1:

    Bizarre decision to give Dembele man of the match today, apart from the penalty he had a quiet game. James Forrest was easily the best player on the pitch. I know Dembele is the golden boy at te moment but lets keep it real and give the MOM to the player that actually deserves it.

    Keep giving him man of the matches and get his transfer value through the roof!

    Certainly wasn't bizarre, it wasn't like he never kicked his own *.

    He played well, could have been given to either of the scorers.

    When is the qualifiers for the Champions League?

    Resting your players is all well and good, but you may be forgetting the Scottish Cup final (should we get there) is the week following the last league game of the season.

    Surely you'd be seriously unhappy if BR rested half the team in that final for a qualifier heavily stacked in our favour?
