  1. Really good result that. Obviously disappointed we didnt get the win due Goldson's mistake as we defended very well.

    As much as Benfica got into good positions and moved us about I can't recall too many times Butland had to make too many big saves, especially in the second half.

    For as much shit as Tav has got down the years for his defending he was absolutely superb at the back tonight particularly as the game went on. Just in the right place and read situations brilliantly.

    A lot of confidence going into next week. Back at Ibrox we can beat anyone of this standard but we concede one goal from a right dodgy penalty imo and a total individual mistake when defensively we were solid as a unit. Our two goals came from two lovely moves. Keep the ball better next Thursday and I'm sure we'll have no bother.

    I really want to beat this mob as well. Bunch of diving moany bastards. How Di Maria never got sent off after his yellow card between his diving, constant fouling and fucking moaning at the ref?

    On to Hibs...

    Not really going to look at the,"we could have been 5 points ahead"

    We were absolutely shite yesterday and got what we deserved, nothing, nada, hee haw Mcgraw.

     

    We were also due a bad day compared to them who are who they are at the moment which is a team that drops points every third game.

    Wtf

    :lol:I'm so oblivious to some of the rules these days. I just recall when VAR was rolled out guys were getting called offside for sticking out their arms etc. which always seemed unfair.

    Yup and as said in 40 games of football he's bound to have 2/3 moments. It's not enough and there's far more examples on the flip side

    Aye and I certainly wont disagree with that!

    Sorry but still think the "at times he does some brilliant things" is nonsense.

    He's played as our main striker for just about the entire season. In that time he's scored a couple good goals and made a couple good passes. Law of averages that a few of his 100 shots do something decent. Him lifting the ball over a keeper off his line a good finish but it's what any good striker should be doing anyway, I would bet Miovski and Shankland have done it multiple times this season.

    Sometimes maybe competent, sometimes maybe costing us the league

    I'm thinking of things like the goal vs Betis and his ball through to McCausland vs Killie. Both examples of lovely peices of play where he does look good.

    That's why guys sway on him because he is effective at times. Whether he does it anywhere near enough is a very different debate - and not much of one either.

    Flip flopping of opinion on him is mental :lol:

    It'll be far easier if you just accept he's utter terrible, count your blessings every time he bundles the ball into the net and hope he isn't here next season

    The things is though he is literally the Gattuso "sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit" interview.

    At times he does some brilliant things and in the very next phase of play looks like he's never seen a football before:lol:

    We had 31 attempts at goal our finishing was diabolical and we where a shambles in defence, poor all over the park at times but still created enough chances to bury Motherwell. You have days like this in title races it’s how we respond to it that matters now, after our last defeat we went on a 10 game winning streak.

    Hawd yer nerve fs we’re still in a strong position to push for the title. The injury situation is my only worry at this point. 

    That pretty much sums up how I feel. A bad day at the office which happens in title race and even more likely after a big run of consecutive wins.

    We've actually dropped points to Motherwell at some point in, I think, 13 of our last 17 title wins and I'd guess you probably drop points to at least half of the league in any title victory.

    The injuries are the biggest concern and it's all in the same area. Fortunately for the league we only have one game until the 30th so hopefully we should have a few more back by then!
