    Still wary about this mob but I'm a lot happier than I was a week ago.

    I'm worried about this one: they're the champions of Boznia AND Herzegovina...

    Unless we fancy a Forrest/Mbombo wing back formation.

    Bain
    Jozo Jullien Ajer
    Forrest Brown McGregor Mbombo
    Christie
    Shved Edouard​

    I don’t see us having much trouble in the first two rounds even if we have Ralston at RB.

    Sooner we get one in the better though as we’ll need one for R3 and R4 should we make it.

    Don't think we'll go 3 at the back mate..

    Simply due to us having fuckall behind at present..

    Watched the Sarajevo fan's player's he stuck up and they look decent. Noticed a slow build up when no countering though. Don't see much to be worried about..

    Hopefully we get Smith or someone in beforehand, although still think we'll be ok with Ralston..

    Hello,

    We have some new players, and some of our best players from last season are not available for this match (most important defensive midfielder Stanojevic)... Also our best CB and youngster Mujakic has left (he will be A national team CB with no doubt).. I do not know who of these new players will play, most probably new CB who has nice prefferences... I will post here our probabile formation and line up, once it will become public opinion... Tell me who is most dangerous men in your team? Tell me at least three players please, and their role in the team.. In our team, there is no any secret - Striker Ahmetovic is the best, he is not young but still is very strong, he is quick also even he is tall, work rate on high level, aerial duels, and shotting is very, very good. You'll need to be aware of him as he can threat from everywhere..

    Welcome :50:

    Our most dangerous player for this will probably be James Forrest..

    Must likely Forrest, Edouard and McGregor. I don't know how your left side is defensively seem quite pacey though. I think your left winger is going to be pushed into your own half for most of the game.

    Edouard - £9m club record signing last summer. Absolute class act destined for an excellent career. Can make something out of nothing if we are struggling for a goal.

    McGregor - Came through our youth team but in the last two years he has become the heartbeat of the team. Mr. Reliable. With him on the pitch for the two legs I can't see us losing.

    Forrest - As said above. Last year's player of the year. Excellent at going by his man down the right and in the past couple of seasons he has sharpened his end product (he is scoring more goals).

    Thank you for this info. I will pay attention to these players, but now watching these Forest's highlights i see why you mention him, he is very, very dangerous, our defence most probably will strugle against him, if he will be on his best.

    Our CBs are good, comparing the oposition in our league, i really do not know what to think now against your forwards, must wait fir the match to see it... our full backs are not something special in defensive duties, they are better in offense.. but that also against our league quality oposition. We will have problems on the wings, i can almost guarantee that. My hope are CBs if they will be on 100 % of their possibilities...

    Midfield battle - You will have possesion, we will go to counterattack. Our front line, which will include one striker, two wings and one man behind the striker (most probably) are able to cause some threat once they got the ball in final third, but transition from our box to your final third is what worries me, especially without our best DM... No any doubt about underdog title in this match, we will be satisfied with good result on our pitch and whatever happens away....

    It's only been 2 years we have needed a right back to be fair mate, give it time.

    Back 3 would probably work better but would be a risk
