We’re not suddenly going to start being clinical in front of goal by Tuesday, and our style of play won’t change, so I expect this game to play out much like our loss to Rangers. Another decent but frustrating performance is likely.
We’re a proper number 9 away from this being an outstanding season. Hopefully the board push the boat out and give JBA the backing to sign one in January. Otherwise, we’ll look back on this season and wonder what might have been.
Three points dropped after we gifted them a cheap 1–0. We were shite in the final third and full of laziness and individual errors today. Exactly the result we deserved. Credit to Ward and McGinn though, both were good.
Longelo hasn’t defended well all game. He’s been repeatedly caught out of position, jogging about as I said earlier, and that’s what eventually led to their goal. Defensively he isn’t good enough, even if he does offer a threat going forward.
If the last six months have taught us anything, it’s that JBA knows exactly what he’s doing at Motherwell, so I fully expect a good January transfer window.
Fadinger. A really important player for our system. Constantly winning the ball back, looking for passes, and hauling us up the park when needed. That said, several other players were good today.
