I don't fear them, I said we need to drastically improve for the game against them though. With the amount of chances we've been wasting recently it's silly to suggest otherwise IMO.

bluenose_n1 536 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 The difference is that the euro campaign has given them a boost but they have played nobody's and could've been out on there arse in the last round hearts should've won or at least got a point they aren't as good as they think they are and don't know why guys on here are putting them above us in every department ive seen us go into old firm games with everybody bar us writing us off but we have won those games especially under big Mcleish no surrender Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think anyone's saying we're facing them in ideal conditions but the occasion always takes care of itself to a certain extent no point in wishing it was later etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergio 1,199 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 They have only added 2 players to the squad from the last time we played them. Sinclair and Toure. Sinclair looks to be doing alright however, Toure has been in a team that has conceded 5 goals in 3 games. The Midfield is the key to this battle, and if Barton plays to his potential and is not caught up in the occasion, we could should do o.k Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And all the attention being on Barton vs Brown will take the pressure off him to do just that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said my original post was 'delusional post of the week' The fear is ripping out you, they do look vastly improved from last season but we don't need to 'drastically' improve to worry them.

They seem to rely on the pace they have up front an awful lot though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference is they are banging in goals at the other end meanwhile we are missing chances left, right and centre. So IMO there is drastic improvement needed in that department. We won't always get away with performances like yesterday. As I said in an earlier post though, hopefully Garner and a fit Waghorn will be the difference there.

How on earth could you describe that as a long high punt up the park? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So with Garner coming in,Waggy coming back along with Windass and Crooks (to offer options at the back) it's not too delusional to expect us to be prepared to give them a game any day of the week?

You said they were playing shite just now as well. I felt that part was delusional given the amount of goals they're scoring. Do I think we can beat them with Waghorn back and if Garner hits the ground running? Absolutely. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
