*** The Official Motherwell f.c. vs Rangers f.c. Match Thread ***

Two of the softest goals to concede just puts us right up against it. 

The second is unforgivable. 

How a Season can turn in 20 minutes. 

[djwyc14 116]

Haven't played too badly but defending is uncharacteristically rotten. Barisic putting some serious quality in from the left. Not sure the formation change was necessary and I feel it has unsettled us.

Still feel we can rack up 3 or 4 goals and turn this around

[GeeSS 512]

Formation is a joke. We were solid as as 4 at the back changed it and we look like conceding every time they go forward !!!

[sandyinroyalblue 16,478]

We just haven't settled at the back today,strange given how good we've been defensively this season.

Morelos is going to get in trouble for lifting his hands like that, regardless if he is being fouled.

Not learning is he

[TheKingObv 10,646]

Midfield simply isn't good enough to get a hold of the game 

[Clemdog 39,389]

Fucking stupid fouls. 

Do we learn?

[BlearyEyedBear 4,148]

Craig Thomson must have forgotten to bring his cards with him today.

[gsa 3,906]

Arfield on at half time.

Feels like an expirement to me. Motherwell. Bottom of the league. Let’s try this out. If it’s not working by half time it will be changed. 

[gogzy 31,195]

we are sacrficing our shape to go 2 up top.  I'd go back to what was working.

Lafferty is a far better player now than he was in 2012.

It's night and day man, all round is so much better now.

[Ryju84 3,170]

Jack would have been sent off for that

I'm sure we will see one or two soon enough.

A bit dramatic ?

We were never going to go all season without going behind. This is a good early test of how we handle this kind of game. 

 

 

[TMB 14,167]

We need to get a goal back before half-time.  Hopefully the manager can make the changes at half-time that will bring home the victory.  Edge of the seat stuff right now we need to win this game.

[BillySastard 238]

Not overly worried yet.

I trust Gerrard and the team to move up a few gears and blow Well away.

[Cos88 283]

The best part of our team this season has been the back 4 and McGregor. Changing it today against these cunts was suicide.

He's going to cost us - he lifted his hands on Thursday night and was lucky to get away with it. 

[billym27 315]

gerrard better fucking get tore into this lot at half time. not good enough.

[WilliamMunny 3,237]

Arfield should come on 2nd half

[LegendofCoop 17,291]

Goldson looks half asleep today....

His hold up play is a lot better. Looks like he knows how to use his size to his advantage now.

Our midfield are non-existent and they look like scoring every time they go forward.

We’re fucking honking here
