His thinking may be that being unattached to a team while the window is closed will present opportunities to him if clubs need to add someone due to injury. He also may be looking at countries wirh other transfer window schedules. If he's adamant he wants to play abroad, then fair play to him for sticking to his guns.

He finished the game and seemed to be running fine in the last few mins.

In January? I don't think they can recall him outside of the transfer window. Goalies have different rules.

Justs header was definitely offside to the naked eye when it was replayed. The first one was very close, but the linesman gave it, so VAR wasnt a factor. Offside decisions don't need to be clear and obvious, you're either onside or you aren't. Whether the cameras are good enough is a different question, but the lines are consistent at each ground at least. As soon as you move away from the factual decisions for offside you would get all sort of stupid interpretations, like with all the other var decisions. It would be better if we just didn't have it at all.

Stam, 2 goals, enough said.

Went for Welsh. He was solid. I didn't think we were particularly good today, but the team still put a shift in, and kept their nerve in the latter stages, which was especially important with the lack of bench reinforcements that we have right now. However, we wouldn't have had the chance to win it if Lazetic had taken that chance, and a lot of that goes down to Welsh, who didn't give up and recovered well enough to put him off.

Not technically true. He did stop on multiple occasions to smell his own farts.

Turnbull back playing 90 for Cardiff. Devante scored for Port Vale in their win, with Ben Heneghan also in the lineup. Declan "gun to his head" Gallagher git sent off for Ross County in another loss for them.

This will be an interesting one. This is our first opportunity to play a team for a second time. Will we make adjustments to counteract how aberdeen handled us, or will they figure us out? Aberdeen disrupted our playing out from the back, and hit us on the counter really well, they were just toothless in front of goal. They have Utd before us, so it's possible that we won't see Thelin at fir park. What is it with dogshit managers winning cups?

Well, if you have any social media you've just triggered a string of relevant ads 😆 Maybe motherwell should buy ads in that space, the team is exciting to watch.

Stam is who we have, and until Hendry, Robinson, Sule and Stuparevic come back from injury or the transfer window opens, we might as well accept his good points and hope he clicks in front of goal. Our other option is shoehorning wingers into the 9 position, which just won't work. It was an excellent win and a guttsy performance with some of our best players missing, so maybe we shouldn't dwell on the negatives.

Fadi/watt were excellent again, and RCC got stuck in and has some of the cynical side that we need at times. Thought the defence was solid enough, with the framework not putting a foot wrong. I went with Said. I had him down as a tricky unpredictable winger, but he put in a great shift in midfield, and is so good at taking the ball in and opening up some space.

The players and manager call him JT, so did the previous managers. So my guess is that's what he wants to be called. I'm sure he'd have corrected them by now otherwise.

Only if the bid actually happened, and it was for the amount the papers said. Add to that that we brought in Osong and Hendry, I'm not sure we would have replaced him with anyone good. Maybe this is more an indictment on Osong, but we clearly missed AP in open play when he was subbed off. Osong reminded me of that guy Souness signed for Southampton. JT missed a sitter too, and Said has one of those running man style perimeter monitors on his ankles, which turn his feet into cement the second he crosses the 18 yard box. So our build up play is technically working, we just need a forward that can make half chances for themselves, and take the ones the midfield hand to him.

I'm starting to think that the reason I think Watt and Fadinger are so good is that I spend most of the game confusing them for eachother, even though they dont look alike in reality. This opens up many opportunities. Is one shite and the other great? are they both the same? Then throw slattery into the mix, and they're all better. Anyway, I'm going with Fadinger. Or Watt.
