Spiderpig Posted 18 hours ago Report Share Posted 18 hours ago Just watched the Sportscene highlights, shocking defending for the Aberdeen goal, Koutroumbis caught upfield pressing high but the Aberdeen player was allowed to run in on goal and every Motherwell player backed off, no tackles or blocks and he was allowed to shoot with no intervention. Oh and Ward could have made more of an effort, his positioning was poor. I really hope we can sign another striker in January, Hendry shows promise but Stamatelopoulos is hopeless., still we never lost and its another well earned point.

How the hell we shelled out a lot of money ( well for us) on Stama is farcical. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're not the getting the rub of the green at all from referees just now. Week in, week out these decisions are going against us. By contrast, Falkirk are getting all these decisions in their favour. Hopefully things will even themselves out in time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nae chance, over the last 4 or 5 seasons we’ve been pissed on by the current referees for whatever reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellsince75 Posted 7 hours ago Report Share Posted 7 hours ago Id like to see both AP and Hendry up front together - be interesting to see how it changes our approach current issue is unless we’re on the counter we’re quite easy to defend against , AP was up against 3 central defenders yesterday . As poor as he was that’s a tough gig . I do think we need to mix it up a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago How would the team change with two up front? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we move from the 4-2-3-1 to a 4-4-2, the Watt and Fadinger double pivot goes, the wide attackers go, and we’re basically into a midfield diamond. That means one of the current midfield five has to be dropped to fit a second striker. Who’s that? I just don’t see it. More likely Hendry gets a run leading the line, as he’s stronger than Stama and looks better suited to playing up top on his own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orinoco Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago A point away from home is never bad. We are still work in progress and you can see the direction we are heading. It shows how far we have come in a short period of time, when some are unhappy with a draw against a city team and are critical of certain players. Lets just ignore the outside noise of the media and the dinosaurs of scottish football who say we cant and should not play the way we have been and enjoy the football we are playing and back all the guys on the park.

weeyin Posted 19 minutes ago Report Share Posted 19 minutes ago There are certainly people in the media (and ex-players) who would be delighted if we fail. Can't have the "wee" teams trying anything progressive when they should be staying in their lane and sticking to the well worn traditional approach. 3 games against Aberdeen with 2 wins and draw in a decent return. I think it's obvious we could do with another central defender and another striking option, but I'm sure JBA sees that too. If we can keep picking up points in the run up to the next transfer window, a couple of astute signings could see our top 6 aspirations improve.
