In fairness to Gerrard he was absolutely screaming at the team to push up just before the corner... Feel gutted. Hopefully we can get into the EL and pick up a win against celtic to get us all back up. I feel 3-5-2 would be good for us in certain situations and games - but not a tough away fixture against them. i was surprised we went with it today.

jim beam 2,188 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 If we played football and Tav wasn’t a shite defender we would have won that game instead we lost the head and just seem to boot the ball anywhere.could see that goal coming in the last 20min Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
danger ranger 922 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Just now, eejay the dj said: We dropped points today because of sheer bad defending What about the missing midfield especially in the second half, not controlling the game, giving the ball away too easily and putting the defence under pressure by their poor play. Individual performances today were reminiscent of last seasons losers, Tavernier and Halliday and Jack, a one dimensional midfield and also Ejaria didn't do enough and incompetent C/B's, we got what we deserved today and with two big games to come, this must give the opposition a boost, the last thing we needed. We couldn't control the midfield and Gerrard brings on a winger, it just went from bad to worse, he needs to give himself a kick up the arse as well as the players.

simplythebest 11,453 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Has to be a wake up call here and a reminder there's plenty of work still to be done, there were mitigating circumstances with Aberdeen but not today. More performances like that and we'll be dropping far too many early points yet again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heshootshescores 1,904 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Suspect he wanted to try 3-5-2 against the weakest team in the league... Well we got our fucking answer, they moved up and played in front of our 3 man defence. But even so we really didn't look fit in that second half.

kaiser1041 9,088 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 We were utter shite bar 10 mins in the first half the 3 at back doesn’t work for us at all Motherwell bottom of the league were well worth there point Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prso's headband 35,348 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Gerrards naivety cost us in that game. If you’re going to defend for 45 minutes don’t bring on a kid and expect him to do the job for you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.E.C. 18,718 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 For all of Gerrards experience you have to wonder what was on his mind putting a sub on for a corner. Even worse putting on someone that can’t defend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wearethepeople1 3,897 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Second half was shockingly bad, looked like a murty/Pedro fucking display. We invited them on and a goal was going to be inevitable rookie mistakes from SG I’m afraid, he is to blame for dropping points he has tried this shutting up shop tactic and on 3 occasions we have lost late late goals. We should be sitting on 9 or at least 7 points and putting pressure on tims, but alas we are making a cunt of it like every other squad had the last few years. I think come this time next Sunday a lot of people’s opinions and expections will have been radically changed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loyalfollower 1,543 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 The biggest frustration is seeing thugs like sammon and bowman celebrating like they’d won the World Cup. I hate how these extremely average players can raise their game today and lose next week. They had a striker signed from Gateshead for crying out loud. I know we can’t always play well but we should be beating rubbish like that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
6superbarry6 14,150 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Sitting off shite like fucking Motherwell the full 2nd half fucking embarrassing,defence was a fucking shambles and upset their rhythm goin 3 at the back,the defence has been solid why the fuck change it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
writingranger 1,412 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I don't know what to make of that. The moment we made a change at the end I knew a goal was going in. What was the point? Some of our better players were having an off day -Goldson, Tav, McGregor - and at the end we defended too deep and missed out the midfield. It's a game we should have won but Motherwell - to give them credit - battled hard and never stopped. I am incredibly disappointed but would rather have these type of games now while all the other teams except Hearts who will run out of steam) are also trying to find consistency, than later when consistency is everything. Middleton didn't look like he got a kick of the ball and I think Barisic was the wrong player to withdraw. I thought Ejaria was fantastic for most of the match but I'll be looking forward to Coolibally returning, hopefully for Thursday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottyarf37 963 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Lets be honest they are a mid table spfl team. They went for it because we encouraged them. Had 3 strikers on ffs! I am really really pissed off. We cant afford mistakes and learning curves. Its win every game in thw league. Europe is a distraction. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It constantly gave posession back. I dont even know why they went out Think he’s always been a bit wayward like that, mate. Got to say he looked a bit embarrassed at the first goal, too. Bit of a wake up call for him & a few others today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
