Bruno concerned by excessive physicality here.

I'm sure I never hear Tam Forsyth, Colin Jackson, Terry Bucher, Richard Gough, and Davie Weir, Amoruso or Clint Hill come out with shite like that. 

Suspect Alves will now be working his ticket with mysterious injuries, international commitments, visits to specialists etc etc till his contract is up. 

But worst of all the rest of Scottish football will have noted that he is now one like Foderingham who can be easily intimidated and wound up. We really are a club with no fight or character now, Embarrassing.

Get it sorted or fuck off Mr King........

Remember Souness saying he signed guys like Graham Roberts, Ian Ferguson and John Brown because you had two choices:

Teams could have a game of football with us or they could have a war.

I thought Bruno would be up for a war but clearly not.

 

I thought Alves was excellent in the game at Perth when we're under pressure in that second half but today was really disappointing just purely in terms of his lack of commitment and fight.

Absolutely,and it seems to be getting worse. German football is still fairly physical and has a level of skill involved, and they are successful at european levels. I'm at the stage where I'm struggling to watch Scottish football its that bad just now. That was fine 20 years ago when I played,but world football has moved on

Portuguese football is not exactly full of shrinking violets but it is combined with skill, Scotland has (as our record shows) only hammer throwers and caber tossers, certainly no shortage of tossers.

He actually enraged me today.

The first thing that pissed me off was Moult left one on him and instead of going through him when he was on the ball he ran over and pushed him from behind like a wee dick. That was about 5 minutes before the main incident with Moult.

The second thing was when McCrorie came on he kept passing on the responsibility to do something with the ball to him. You are a fucking European Champion for god sake why are you passing responsibility on to a boy making only his fourth appearance in senior football.

He done a backpass that nearly cost us as well, that everybody could see coming in the stands, never mind their player

Have you ever watched a Brazilian game? That’s as violent as a night in the Milton.

For some reason Scotland isn’t producing anymore guys like Jimmy Johnstone or Willie Johnston who could play but be dirty bastards themselves.

Oh I forgot about that.

For fuck sake that was terrible. Being lazy and unaware.

If I’m dishing it out though for that I’ve got to mention Dorrans too. There was a couple of times he tried to play balls without even bothering to look up.

thought first 20 Dorrans and Jack were going to dominate midfield then both vanished, inexplicable

I don’t know what it is with this team but we seem to fuck it if we don’t go in to half time in front.

it was a weird game today because we created enough chances to win, and a lot more than Motherwell at that, but still deserved to lose. I’m not sure how to reconcile that.

We go for that quick goal early doors, when we don't get it our players panic and heads go down.

Maybe there's something in the poor fitness claims made by a number of people.  We start on fire then seem to drop out of the game.

For all the talk about passion and physicality I just think the players still don’t get it. This from Alves, Cardoso on Twitter and Dalcio on Instagram ffs. 

Every team in Scottish football will break our players legs if it helps them get a win against us. That’s what we’re up against every week. That’s what we need to match. 

The referee obviously needs to do better and you expect a bit of protection but everyone knew that was how Motherwell would play today - they battered Aberdeen and Aberdeen are a much more physical side than we are. 

That header at the end where Bruno went right through Moult, should have happened inside the first few minutes of the game. Our players need to play like the whole word hates us and match up. Never going to happen with pussies like Windass, Cardoso and Tav in the team who have no appetite for a physical battle.

Alves. The guy to kicked people up and down the park prior to coming here. 

Hit the papers soon as he got here about how tough he was. 

And kicked moult on the ground. 

That guy? That's the guy concerned about the physicality of the game? 

Think that's a guy lookin for excuses for a pish poor team performance. 

Yeah the game was physical, but it wasn't career ending tackles it was trailing/leading arms. 

Tough up or fuck up.

Nope that's a soft touch. Jesus Christ it's a bloody nose. Nothing's falling off!! 

Another excuse. Sit the rest of the season out Dalcio. Then just fuck off. 

He actually broke his nose.

While I still think it’s no the way a man behaves (putting stuff up on instagram) let’s not gloss over the truth by saying “he just got a bloody nose”.
