Motherwell v Ross County

[MJC]

As long as we win and progress then it won’t matter a jot, indeed it will look like a shrewd move by Jens. But we’ve been here before with Cup ties and this one will be a tough battle which we will need to negotiate properly. We should have enough quality in that starting lineup to win but you just never know.

There is always a chance any team can get beat whether they play their strongest team or not.

We have a strong squad and todays team reflects that. Its good Connolly and Ross are getting game time.

We also have five subs to take advantage later on in game.

Looks like a decent line up to me.

Only major surprise is Ross getting a starting slot, but seems low risk given we'll have 75% possession.

At the start of the season I thought Connelly was the most comfortable of all 3 keepers with the ball at his feet - although Ward has obviously improved since then.

I expect Said and Sparrow to be pulling them wide to try and create spaces between the buses parked at the back.

Good to see Ross get a chance,  Great bench if we are struggling hut hope not.

Get intae them!!

Hibs out by the looks of things. Warning for us if we are not at it.

Hibs knocked out. No easy games in the cup. Let’s hope for the best today, I don’t want to see Kettlewells smug coupon at full time.

Dunfermline were not great, but got the luck you need.

Dunfermline away is a tougher game, but every cup tie needs our full attention.

Have no reason to believe we'll be anything but well prepared.

A lot of the fear is we’ve all experienced disappointment.  I think this is a great lineup in current state where the message seems to be anyone can step in and knows the system and expectations.  If they don’t perform then we have a great bench to call upon.

Given all his talk about developing a winning mentality in the squad, I dont see any way Jens doesnt go with the strongest team available.

If he does he sends out totally the wrong signals and lets the players know he isnt actually serious.

Not gonna happen.

Holy shit!

Seriious Stuart McCall vibes about that lineout!

Hopefully Big Jens has called it right!

😍😍😍

Hey no VAR

First goal incoming as soon as JT times his run beyond the offside trap.

We are trying but its all abit flat on and off field. County will be happy. Hope we have practised penalties.

Starting to get the fear now. We need to score asap in the second half.
