***The Official Motherwell vs. The Rangers Thread***

[JograBear 1,074]

Better looking and more balanced team. Worried about 2 young untried players though in defense. Maybe one too many.

[disgruntled_bear 157]

Subs?

SUBS: Alexander, Fleck, Healy, Kerkar, Bendiksen, Little, Hutton.

Mcmillan --perry --Goian --Wallace

Ortiz ----Davis --Naismith --Wylde

---------Lafferty --Jelavic------

A team forced by injuries but it gives us good attacking options , a chance to see ortiz in his natural position and a couple of our promising youngsters given a chance to impress .

4-1 Rangers , Lafferty , jelavic(2) , naismith

[Gaffbear 4,096]

McGregor

McMillan - Goian - Bocanegra - Wallace

Naismith - Davis - Ness - Wylde

Jelavic - Lafferty

would be my choice.

Bocanegra can't play.

No clearance

[kingbroadfooot 68]

Surprised, but not disappointed.

[BlueDaughter 172]

Lafferty hasn't set the world alight with his performances, yet can waltz back in at roundabout 60% match fit. Fleck hasn't been any worse than half the team that's out today.

Yea...I see your point - he can be hit or miss and hopefully will be ok out there today...we shall see! I've been waiting to see more from Fleck and when he does play...I just don't see *it* that something special. When lafferty is 100 percent he's alright for the team.

[StuartM6 279]

With the shite we've been used to this season, how can anyone complain. The only reason naismith is in the middle is bcos ness isn't fit.

[Creampuff 22,628]

A lot of youngsters with points to prove out there..

Perry: Convincing Ally he doesn't need any more CB's.

Wylde: Earning a new deal.

McMillan: Finally getting a first team chance.

[Nicolas Cage 31]

Interesting line up. Looking forward to see how Perry & McMillan do. Not sure where Ortiz and Naismith will be playing and hopefully Lafferty and Wylde step and perform today.

Poor bench again but we do have 12 senior players unavailiable; Bedoya, Broadfoot (What happened to him?), McCulloch, Beattie (Not sure if he'll ever play for us again), Weir (Same as Beattie), Papac, Edu, Whittaker, Bocanegra, Bartley, Ness and Hemmings.

[Creampuff 22,628]

Really hoping McMillan can take his chance and move above Broadfoot in the pecking order.

[BlueDaughter 172]

Ortiz on the right!?!?

I must be dreaming. Please don't wake me up.

it's about time!!

[rfcgillies 8]

Very excited to see how this goes

[Carsons Dog 9,878]

Ally has been reading this forum. :-)

[macavoy 1]

Hmmm really like the look of that!

[Jamie1807 146]

I like the look of that team.

[TerryTibbs 224]

Very happy with that team.

Will be interesting to see how McMillan does

[BlueDaughter 172]

it seems like it all the complaining and moaning worked!

[BlueDaughter 172]

Good to see the young guys get a chance, but don't get too carried away. Soon as the likes of McCulloch, Broadfoot, Whittaker etc are back the lads won't make the bench.

He will have competition I think...

A big problem at our club.

[DougieGers 26]

I like the sound of that team. Should be fairly good going forward. Interesting to see how the youngsters do in defence

Don't talk pish, you don't have a clue if that's true and they have all been on the bench so far this season!

[SirWalterSmithLegend 206]

I love Ally McCoist.

I think thus far his tenure has been awful.

I don't think he has been given the Players he has wanted.

But he looks lost on the Bench.

For me... Walter was what held us altogether.

I don't rate Durrant, McDowall and Co. in anyway shape or form.

I could be looking in the mirror talking to you MCLACHLAN!

I feel exactly the same, especially about his assts. Makes me angry seeing Durrant in there.

[SirWalterSmithLegend 206]

Delighted with two up front, excited to see more of McMillan and Perry.

[Senna 735]

Great looking team, what most of us have been asking for.

What the fuck Amac and DB want in that teamsheet, I've no fucking clue, aside from a valium the size of a fucking waltzer. Cheer up you cunts.

[Gillete 1,338]

I'm happy with that

Glad wylde is playing
