Starting Eleven for Saturday

I think the memory of the opener last season v Pompey will play large in the selection. We were basically out-played after being overrun in midfield and Adams seemed to be quite cautious at the best of times last season so I can see us with 2 sitting midfielders which means both Threlkeld and Fox starting.

I agree with the GK and defence.

So that suggests either 4-2-3-1 or 4-4-2 with a midfield diamond.

If the first then the 3 could be Carey/Donaldson/Jervis with Goodwillie up front.

If the second then Carey and Jervis wide with Threlkeld and Fox central with Goodwillie and Spencer up front.

But I'd be amazed if any of us got it right because I don't think even Adams knows who our best 1st XI is yet.

So it'll probably be 4-3-3!
