  1. I see what you mean about Rose he doesn't win the ball, make incisive passes, offer a goal threat, win headers but he's definitely running about.
  2. They fell apart as soon as we put a bit of pressure on them. I wouldn't say they are well coached. An enjoyable game. If we can sort out the defence, ditch Andy Rose, get Cadden and Tait linking up on the same side and play through Bigirimama there is a very good team in there.
  3. Causing havoc all over the pitch and missing a few chances. Played well.
  4. The last three results have been good but we were still rotten in the first halves versus County and Killie who are very poor before rejigging the formation and being much better second half. If we start three at the back today I think we'll see the same problems as we saw in the first half against Rangers and to a lesser extent against Hearts.
  5. Moult scored two playing up front alone against Celtic last season. He just needs to stay in the middle and wait for service rather than drifting out.
  6. You might be right but I think we need to prove a few things before we can go and attack against better teams. I'm less bothered about tomorrow than Thursday night which is a massive game but the defensive performance in the first half against Rangers and against St Johnstone is still in my mind. These next three games are a step up. I'd go.... Carson Tait Kipre Hartley Dunne Cadden Campbell Bigirimama Mchugh Tanner Moult
  7. It'll be interesting to see if we go with two up front tomorrow. I can see the case for both sides of either Moult up himself or continue the partnership with Moult and Bowman. I just hope we don't end up playing like we did in Perth with a striker playing on the left wing and being completely ineffective.
  8. Motherwell U20s: Morrison, MacLean, Livingstone, Armstrong, King, Brown, Plummer, Turnbull, Fisher, Tanner, Petravičius
  9. He's an arsehole. He's proven it in on the park, in the dug out and off the park. It's shite that he recieved a plasticine bomb in the post but it's not exactly great that he threatened to stab a lassie in Bolton either..... Anyway more importantly i'll be sticking a few quid on big Cedric to score this weekend.
  10. It's not often you sign a player who hasn't played 90 minutes combined across his whole club career but has seven full international caps.
  11. I think we should play one up front for the next few games so he'd be coming on as a sub.
  12. It was an excellent performance for the 30 odd minutes we had the McHugh, Campbell and Bigirama midfield. It might be the case that this season the formation and team selection will have to change depending on the opposition and we might not have 11 first pick starters but a core of Carson, Kipre, Hartley, Tait, McHugh, Campbell, Cadden and Moult and guys who come in and out.
  13. Campbell has just carved his name into the starting 11.
  14. Aye considering the queue is full of adults passing kids season tickets to other adults it's a very long shot.
  15. I went through to the game against Holland last night. Cadden played well, nothing too eye catching but a solid performance and he was the Scotland player who was still going strong at the death. Dom Thomas started as well and looked sharp with some great touches. It was an impressive performance from Scotland in their first competitive game together against a much bigger Dutch team. Morgan from St Mirren was dangerous every time he got on the ball and Ralston from Celtic and McKenna were superb at the back. It was good entertainment for a fiver at the gate, hopefully they stay competitive in a tough group.
  16. The Jeroen Sinclair situation is mental. Watford and Sheffield United agree a loan fee, Sinclair wants to go Sheffield but his agent tells him to sit in Sheffield train station while he tries to get himself a bigger fee. Deal gets cancelled due to the agent's greed and Sinclair will spend a few months watching Soccer Saturday instead of playing in front of 27,000 at Bramall Lane.
  17. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2730888-a-day-in-the-life-of-sheffield-united-boss-chris-wilder-on-transfer-deadline-day An article following Sheffield United's managaer on deadline day. We seem to be quite straight forward to deal with compared to some of the chancers down in England.
  18. Just Newell I think and he is only 20.
  19. Aye same here. I was waiting on Dundee United as well.
  20. From what I could see Crusaders were launching in high balls which we struggled to deal with.
  21. Good sounds like a great goal.
  22. I remember someone on here said Celtic u20s were the favourites for the tournament last year which was mental. As you say i'm glad they have been found out.
