Johnny B Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 2 hours ago, Widge said: Wotherspoon over Kennedy I’ll give you, but no chance O’Halloran is better than Wright. As for the wide players being the problem, we’re losing so many balls from crosses into the box and not stopping at the source that I’d be inclined to disagree. The wide men have to take some responsibility for that as well as the fullbacks. It doesn't matter which 2 of the 4 are played wide, the crosses will continue to come into the box and over the last 2 months we are still conceding on average about 2 goals a game (Ross County, St Mirren, Hamilton 2 each and Hibs 4) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have pace to burn in MOH, Kennedy and Wright, so why not play creative passers like Swanson and Wotherspoon to supply through balls to exploit the their pace. Tanser and Ralston should be up the pitch to occupy defenders to leave space for May, Kennedy and Wright to isolate defenders, they should not be up there as the primary attacking options when we have May, Kennedy and Wright in the same team. The fans can all see it, can Tommy bring himself to succumb. Hopefully Muzz being absent will force his hand.

Cleveland-Saint Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 defended well when we've needed to and no long hoofs, playing everything through and on the ground... shape of the team feels good.

RandomGuy Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 We're exactly the same as all the pish Dundee/United sides we roundly mocked for years. Pass the ball about well 50 yards from goal, create absolutely **** all, then concede an embarrassing, pathetic goal, and spend the rest of the game chasing your arse and still never threatening to win it. Losing this easily and "playing well" is the sign of a relegation team. Motherwell havent even got going yet are comfortably winning and should probably be further ahead. Theyve had a player sclaff a free shot from 12 yards under pressure, a free header cleared off the line, and numerous long range shots go a few yards wide. We had a powder puff back heel from Kane the keeper could've saved by sitting on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
