grizzlyg Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago 44 minutes ago, Motherwell Daft said: I must admit I was disappointed with yesterday result, but I have to put it in context of where we are just now with effectively a new manager and a new team, having as others have said travelled across Europe, been put out by the team sitting 2nd in the German top tier who sold 3 players for £120m to our 3 players for £9m, started the SPL with just 1 defeat more points than last season at this point and to a team admittedly not playing well, but having spent well over £30m in transfer fees and at home in front of the knuckle dragger fans. We have to remember that the season in long and we have started well, we have 10 days now for injuries to ease, players to re charge and AJ finally a chance to bed in his ideas and come back with a fresh impetus. I agree JT is no No9, Thor cannot be judged on 25 minutes of football after an injury, I think with AJ style he could flourish in the middle with Palmer and Tom Sparrow gives his all wherever he’s asked to play, yes JK is my preferred RB but he’s injured…again, and it’s a fact fir me we miss Oscars energy in midfield although Hodge n Lowry have been good, so on overview we have for our wonderful wee team a great squad of talent that I’m sure we will mostly agree is the best for decades that I feel will do well this year. We could be like Killie with McCann at the helm shipping goals for fun but no, we score more goals in our first 4 games than we have since the 1920’s. We need to be calm and be realistic with expectations, AJ and the team will do well this year just give them a chance, we ain’t going to win the league it looks like the horrid Selic will, but let’s win our own league within the league. Let’s see what a break does for the team and hopefully come back n pump Robbo’s sheep! Excellent post. Most on here talking sense ( unlike Facebook....jeez!!!) Considering we had 6 European games and this is our first league defeat in 5 its been an encouraging start. Also remember AJ has 11 new players and a horrendous injury list to deal with and hardly any proper training sessions. We now have a 10 day break to work on training ground and then start to establish what best line up is but loads of options off bench. RCC and Sparrow main fall guys yesterday. I've never been fully impressed with RCC but still very important part of squad. Sparrow unlucky as had to fill in a position which isn't his main one but with plauers coming back he can play further forward. Said has went off boil a bit but we know will bounce back and JT just needs to knuckle down and work away. I would really like to see Longelo and Williams on left side, they could interchange and that would be huge asset. Final point is remember where we were 18 months ago. The phrase "night and day" springs to mind. COYW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
