  1. Most teams do. It's not a surprise our first choice striker is the main goal scorer. Our problem isn't outside of Morelos we can't score. Even with Morelos, we don't score enough goals. We've won too many games 1-0 or 2-1 and it's cost us a few times in the way of draws. Kent usually steps up in these games, if he's on it and we can supply Roofe we will be fine.
  2. Morelos is a huge loss, no doubt about it but we have quality throughout the squad. It's up to GvB to bring that quality out on the pitch. Morelos will leave eventually so we have to be able to win games without him.
  3. Contributed? Those 4 players have scored 38 goals this season. Roofe - 12, Tav - 11, Sakala - 8 and Aribo - 7.
  4. Tav, Roofe, Aribo and Sakala have provided something like 38 goals combined this season. We have the goal threat, we just need to a) create the chances and b) hope players like Roofe and Aribo are on it.
  5. I don't love the idea of either of them. Barisic is a quality player that is totally out of form and confidence but that top level delivery has helped us plenty of times. Bassey has a mistake and can be clumsy but he's got a lot of potential and his athleticism is a big plus. I think with Morelos likely being out then we have to go Bassey at left back. I just can't see us getting up the pitch enough especially since Barisic doesn't seem to get forward as much lately and Bassey is someone that can cause a little bit of chaos going forward.
  6. Feel like this will be followed up with some bad news about Alfie.
  7. Hopefully it's just precaution as he is vital for Sunday and the rest of the season. He's hardly ever gets injured so it's fucking typical the first real one comes before the game against them.
  8. That makes him look even more of a clown. Initial contact was near McCrorie's thigh. The rules of the game are for a genuine attempt to play the ball legally. Any player can mistime a challenge or make a real effort to get the ball. That's a red card anywhere else on the pitch, not just because it's a goal scoring opportunity. It's like he thinks if it's in the box, it's free game to snap someone two footed, as long as you are looking at the ball it's a pen and yellow
  9. Porteous appeal rejected unsurprisingly. Hibs fans bewildered trying to claim he made a genuine attempt for the ball but just having your eyes on the ball doesn't mean much if you have to chop a player in half to achieve that ffs! Scrolling through the comments on Twitter and a Hearts fan had put a link to a thread on their forum about it, absolutely wild. This comment - Ryan Porteous, sent off (rightly so) for a horrible challenge in a game against Aberdeen = Rangers fault.
  10. Every game is massive and we are going to be right up against it thanks to the goal difference. However, it does feel like if we win the league this is the one we will look back on as being absolutely huge. They're shite but they've taken us and them to final 10 minutes in recent weeks.
  11. Felt a bit sorry for him today, got 0 service in the first half but still nearly conjured a goal. He'll go away no doubt but for once I wouldn't mind him sitting on the bench.
  12. Can't give him time to think. Put it in his path to score or run. He can't pass, can hit an occasional cross. Any time he has time in a tight area it's a nightmare.
  13. See a lot slating Ramsey here but I don't think you can pin this on one player. Ramsey is dropping deeper and a few times has created space by drawing them in only for Sands or Lundstram to go back to defence and waste it. Whole team have been shocking. Sakala and Aribo on.
  14. Was expecting that to be fair 🤣 Top teams tend to get a lot of pens so I know Tav has taken quite a lot but he's missed quite a few now.
  15. It'll be the same 11 back out. Possibly Ramsey off for Aribo.
  16. How many pens has Tav missed for us? Genuinely no idea what is considered a good penalty conversion %
  17. I've got huge concerns with Gio. For every step forward it seems to be two back. Gets it right in Europe and can argue it's because teams attack us but if you can't figure out a solution to it domestically then pack your bags. 99% of this league is utter shite. The Aussie knows this and that's why they just press the life out of the game. Most of their goals come from opposition mistakes. Going away to a team desperate for points, you know how defensive they will be, how hard they will work and you line up with 0 creativity in the middle. The players need to take a lot of the flak but the goals are so awful every week. The setup isn't right.
  18. Genuinely can't stand most of these cunts at this point. Should be ashamed of themselves. There's no desire left in this squad at all. Europe is pretty much keeping Gio in the job. It's every single away game domestically.
  19. We are passing it around like we are fucking 4-0 up. I like Lundstram but he's walking around like he's got all day. Get it fucking forward!
  20. Get Arfield out of that 3. He can't pass a ball. Kent is being crowded out so Bassey has to offer more support. Ramsey coming so deep because we aren't getting down the right at all. We are slow, ponderous and lackadaisical.
  21. We are hardly being put under pressure and defenders can't cope 😭
  22. We don't have one. Dundee got their goal and now constant fouls to disrupt the play.
