Thats an unbelievable stat considering we are Motherwell. And it’s unbelievable I hadnt thought about this until today. hopefully tomorrow will extend that stat After the past few seasons where we struggled to address defensive issues, it has been particularly impressive that the coaching staff managed to identify the problems that continued into the first couple of months of this season, and found a way to resolve them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, I'm not sure what percentage of that is "if the opposition don't have the ball, they can't score". Not that I'm complaining about that approach...

Keeping the ball helps, but there have been huge improvements in our shape off the ball, decision making in defence and sticking to the plan when we are protecting a lead.

joewarkfanclub Posted 55 minutes ago Report Share Posted 55 minutes ago There have been tweeks, no doubt. Jens alluded in his presser to using "the data" to improve our defensive issues. It just all adds to the confidence that we, as fans, can have in the process. This isnt just some ad hoc anomaly we are witnessing. Its the real deal.

I don’t think any manager in Scotland in a long time has achieved what Jen’s has. Teams can go on winning runs, but for me it’s the consistency of our play and the ability rotate players into this system is unmatched. Also the signings have been outstanding. Example being Preistman who I think is a star in the making. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
