santheman Posted Monday at 04:19 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 04:19 PM Im more worried about us coming out of this tie with no injury concerns going by Aberdeens physical approach yesterday which will no doubt be the same on Wednesday. A difficult pitch won't help but as long as we don't get sucked into a physical battle and concentrate on our own game then I think we'll be fine. Might even go to extra time in this one.

There will be no love lost between the players given Aberdeen's cynical approach yesterday and the ref will be need to be strong and consistent from kick off to ensure a fair contest. I doubt if we'll change our game plan much but it will be fine tuned in the light of lessons learned. JBA should find it a bit easier, as he'll now have seen Aberdeen's various newbies in action. I wonder if we'll continue with our long ball experiment. Not sure if it worked yesterday - the idea was good but the execution not always great. Will our tank be running on fumes? There will be some squad rotation in that Welsh will sit this one out and Fadinger will come back in. SODs may also come back in. Possibly one or two other tweaks. I started to write about the team for Wednesday night but there are so many options it quickly became way to complicated so I’ll wait and see what JBA decides and the good news there, is that Aberdeen will also have to wait. I’m hoping for a bit more out of JT and Said in this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Stall Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Looking at our form & team, considering one of the arse cheeks is going out in the next round& Hearts are already away, this game is massive. Whether MJC likes it or not, we are one of the best teams in the country. If we get through tonight we will rightly be installed as one of the favourites. There literally is no team in Scotland we should fear this season if we are on our game. The cup this year is such a huge opportunity! Dont blow it tonight motherwell! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago We have an exceptional team this year, but is it a cup team? Many excellent teams don't win cups and many bog standard teams win cups. You need a bit of good luck too and do we have that? Certainly we have the potential in spades but what concerns me are 2 factors: * Do we have the bottle? Some questions after the League Cup semi. * Will we be more clinical in front of goal? In our favour, we have a good record against Aberdeen this season; but they did seem a bit reinvigorated last Sunday. COYW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellfan Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago We’re winning this tonight. Maswanhise and Said to both play well and score a few between them. And McGinn to finish it with a set piece header. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I'd actually be that gutted if we were papped out tonight, assuming it's not a result of another St Mirren-esque performance or a ludicrous refereeing error. But some folk seem to be thinking if we don't win something with this team we never will, and hopefully things won't turn too negative on here if that happens as there will still be plenty to play for (and hopefully, wins and performances to enjoy).

grizzlyg Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Nervous about tonight. I feel this is our best chance in ages to end almost 35 years of no trophy. Then I remember morton in 2024 and st johnstone last year. That was before JBA so hopefully we can get a great win tonight. COYW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we sometimes focus too much on history and not the present. Just because we've bottled it in the past doesn't mean it'll keep on happening. You can't compare the mindset of the club today with the mindset of previous years. Different players different board different coaching staff and a more positive outlook from the fans (with the obvious exception of course although even he's mellowing). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much my view. We're still work in progress and far ahead of where I thought we'd be with JBA introducing a new system. There's still a few weaknesses for JBA or someone else to sort out. I'll be a bit down if we don't make the top 6 but thats becoming increasingly unlikely. I think we've got a better chance of winning a cup next season. Thats not to say that we shouldn't go all out for a win tonight. Aberdeen were kind enough to give us a few friendly warnings on Sunday; lets hope we learnt from them.
