gogzy 31,195 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 This thread is for talking about the game, what went right, what went wrong? How did the manager do with his line up and subs? Who played well, who played poorly? What needs to change for the next game? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythebestest 2,145 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Thought bringing Kranjcar on was the wrong move but the pass in for the first goal was exactly what we needed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Godfather 71,711 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Miller scored but we need Garner in there IMO we need Holt back too Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM1872 3,705 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Too slow in the first half, too much dilly-dallying and not enough purpose. 2nd half we were miles better and should have had a 3rd at the end if MOH hadn't fucked it. MOH needs to start against Kilmarnock, and hopefully Holt or Windass instead of Halliday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NamibianBear 1,851 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Bit controversial but the manager has played the exact same way now for over a year with no variations. Yeah, we are winning but by fuck its close now that teams can read us. I really don't want to face a "good" team yet. Pretty football needs to stop and we need to be a bit decisive and yeah, our defense is rotten too Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsasasfloppyhair 13,310 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Sell Miller now, 2 in 2. Somebody will take him and we can bring hardie back. Game review: Fuck, Warburton change it, Yass Harry, Fucing draw here n season is over, Kenny ya dancer, 3 points. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogzy 31,195 Posted August 20, 2016 Author Share Posted August 20, 2016 First half was lackluster, we were poor middle to front, and terrible in defense. Second half was where it ll changed. We came out with a bit hunger, turned the pace up a notch and looked a different team. I still think that Miller starting was the wrong move, dodoo should have started IMO. Miller took his goal excellently though. I thought taking Barrie off was the wrong move, but him going off didn't make us worse, so I was wrong there. The way we won this game shows a drive and winning mentality that could serve us well in this league. It was a huge three points so early on in the season. I think Dodoo should start next week.

A.T.G 10,773 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Never, never start with that team again Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz52 11,837 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 We're too stiff looking at times. We need to start with more pace and creativity and of course the urgent matter of a centre half. I'm buzzing after winning that but Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam2102 577 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 What I got from it: Although slow, Kranjcar is exactly the type of player who needs to play against teams who will just sit in all game We seemed to emphasise crosses today, which hopefully Joe Garner will thrive on. Our midfield this season is not giving as many chances for the opposition to attack, however when they do our central defence looks petrified. Manager got it wrong choosing Miller again, him dropping deep is the main reason we had nobody in the box in the first half. Dodoo offers something different and I would have liked to have seen him start with Miller coming on for the last 30 mins Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JockyWilsonspants 80 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 We're definitely needing an injection of whatever the likes of Garner, Windass, Crooks and another cb can deliver. An improved 2nd half but overall not really good enough if thats the type of performance we can expect in the future. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonnybear1972 8,130 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Looking forward to new CB and seeing Garner and Waghorn up front.IMO were missing Windass,seemed to bring us direct football,running at defenders instead of this sideways,trying to walk it in pish.Delighted to scrape the 3 points could be invaluable come end of season. NO SURRENDER Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingKirk 25,600 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 got away with it today. Managers arrogance is gonna cost us some how he's managed to kill whatever pace we had in the team. Mr Warburton and Weir I'd like to remind you that your responsibility is to win games and style comes 2nd I get the impression your more worried about stats. today was the first strike against the management team for me that simply isn't good enough Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.T.G 10,773 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Windass and Garner should be on against Kilmarnock, I just hope that midfield won't be the same Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albertz 78 918 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Centre back position needs to be addressed next week no ifs or buts someone has to be signed. Wee McKay needs benched for one or two games as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
callumbo87 209 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Its been said to death but we need a Plan B. MW seems too stubborn at times to admit it but playing the same way and in particular slow build up has given us the same issues for the past season and a half, only works when we play with pace and quick passing. Start Garner for Miller, Windass for Halliday, another CB. Lets hope he learns from this! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marbles81 2 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I'm worried to be honest. I think we've been woeful in all league matches so far. We still look shaky at the back and going forward we've lacked imagination. Home draw with Accies, hanging on for 2-1 against Dundee and scraping a 2-1 in the 91st minute against Motherwell. Three of the weakest teams in the league. Three points though and surely it can only get better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billythebear77 10,386 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 No urgency 1st half, wee Barrie needs dropped for a few games, Halliday needs to up his game. MOH must get a run in the starting 11, when Nikos fit best player in the league, Tav had another good game. when Waggy and Garner are in the team we'll bury teams with the amount off balls accross the goals we put in. best off all, we dont have to see that tarrier McGhees smug coupon on the highlights show!!!

Moody Blue 9,344 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 If you start Rossiter and Barton then your 3rd midfielder needs to offer something different. You could hardly part the 3 in midfield in the first half they played that close together. i'd prefer us to only play with one holding midfielder at home as Barton and Rossiter play too deep to support a static front 3. At home, one from those 2, Krancjar to pick a pass and then a Holt / Windass as a runner to join those up top. I'd bring Miller on for the last 30 rather than playing from start. When others get fit again I'd imagine some of that team will fear for their starting place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the brown brogue 1,909 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Not controversial at all in my opinion, in fact Waghorn made a very telling comment during the game that teams have been coming to Ibrox since Christmas and playing like Motherwell did with 10 men behind the ball. So we know how the majority of opponents are going to play, yet have still to come up with an effective solution to change things. But hey, we won the possession battle comfortably again so the Manager will be happy... And I agree with an earlier post that McKay should be benched, he has been hugely disappointing this season, as has Wallace behind him. Whether its the slight step up in quality or they are both just out of form there is a real lack of attacking threat down their side of the pitch.

Sonnybear1972 8,130 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 It speaks volumes we've conceaded every game, never mind Waghorns on fire! Oor defence has got me terrified! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
