    He's shite, has pace but doesn't know how to use it and continuously trips himself up or runs into dead ends / straight out of play. We got rid of a more effective player in Sakala.

    You can include the likes of Dowell in that list as well, yes he was a Bosman but he'll have had a healthy signing fee and wage and has frankly disappeared off the face of the earth.

    Hate everything about him. His shitey step overs, his gormless face, his stupid floppy hair that he spends half the game brushing behind his ears. Just get him to fuck. Unfortunately would need a club even more inept at recruitment than us and I don't think there is one in world football.

    The sheep will put every ounce of planning and focus over the next few weeks into beating us in the cup final, they and their fans won't give a toss if they lose every game until then, it will be their sole aim. Our players will pitch up on the Sunday for a day out and consider it a nice bonus if we win and just another thing to learn from if we don't.

    Disgusted by that tonight. There's maybe only Butland and McCausland in that squad I like but there are a growing number I actually hate now. The manager had better wise up quickly or he'll be the next one who they down tools under and cost him his job. He's not blameless himself tonight by any means but fuck me there were some woeful and frankly unacceptable individual performances tonight that the players should be ashamed of. But we know from experience they really won't be bothered one bit, they never are after a result like this. We won't learn from it and we'll do the same again countless times this season.

    Most of our players simply don't have the same insatiable appetite for silverware as the fans, they give the impression that the odd cup is a nice unexpected bonus but if we don't win it's a shrug of the shoulders and off they go home. The 'second-best is ok' mentality is too deeply ingrained into the squad now to change without a major overhaul.

    When GVB first came I remember he had Tavernier (and Barisic) sitting further back, defending first and foremost and it didn't really work. Under Beale the 'tactics' were to push them both up the park all the time and have all our attacking play through the pair of them. Clement seems to have found a happy medium with Tavernier where his attacking threat isn't stifled but he's not always attacking for the sake of it and his defensive duties aren't completely neglected. He looks fitter, or less bulky, as well even since just a few weeks ago which makes a big difference.

    Going by his comments on the radio he certainly will be - 'Sam Lammers had a good game'. He's obviously doing the job Clement is asking him to do, personally I don't see it but if the managers happy then he must be doing something right.

    Yeah I'm not sure Clement fancies him much, not sure he's positionally disciplined enough for where he wants him to play. Going forward it will have to be Cantwell or Lammers, it doesn't work having them both in the same area of the pitch. And now we have Lawrence coming back as well, going to be a lot of competition for places which will be a nice problem for Clement to have.

    Imagine Beale was right all along and they both turn out to be players and knock in 20 goals each this season.

    That goal was Mols-esque, great ball for Dessers goal as well. Hopefully this will be the kickstart he's needed and he can find some confidence and consistency.

    Much better second half, completely dominant and looks like the players are starting to buy into what Clement is trying to implement. Good performance and result on Sunday and we're starting to build up a head of steam

    He's probably never seen professional players with such a lack of the basics. Jack finding a Dundee player with every pass, Wright making the wrong decision every single fucking time, Lammers sand-dancing 40 yards from goal, Sima playing with roller skates on, Goldsons 50 yard diagonals to nobody. Dundee are woeful and we're making much harder work of it than we should be, need to start the second half on the front foot and put it the game to bed, if it stays 1-0 it's going to get nervy as fuck.
