King Jela 20,361 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 2 pish goals to lose and call it 'Tav-bashing' if you want but he's suspect for the first goal and downright criminal for the 2nd. Lundstram is a poor man's Arfield on tonight's showing. We can go through next week. They aren't great at all but we were shocking in the final third. Arfield recieves the ball from a cross round about the 6 yard box and he tries to fucking lay it off to Kent. Kent takes a world class touch to set himself up to strike the ball with his left foot but instead drags it back, the minute he does that the chance was away. Wright playing Itten through in the 2nd half but over playing it. So poor. Kent was MOTM by a mile, Wright done very well, Itten had a good first half. Need Alfie back, its a shame Roofe isn't available either. They 2 start tonight and we win this game going into Ibrox. Frustrating as fuck.

We are lucky to get away with a one goal defect. If they had been half decent they could have taken us apart tonight. The league game we came closest to losing last season was against …….. Hamilton. Where are they now? That’s how football works. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungBill 46 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 We’re still well in this and well capable of turning this around. They are no great shakes by any measure. Hungrier on the night and con artists per excellence. We need to get our act together. Sakala and Hagi need to start next week as Itten just not it and Arfield done. Hasn’t the quality either. As for Barisic, hardly took on a man, constantly back passing and turning his back on the ball. Guilty at the first goal for that. TBH not many pass marks tonight. Davis for that peach of a goal. On our game we shred them, so over to Steven to make the right changes, because doing the same will see us lose. Ayrshire Blue 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like another poster said are you forgetting he’s had a full career before coming here? I’ve seen him play plenty before, thought he was absolute garbage and he was exactly that again tonight. If someone is that bad they deserve any criticism they get. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill8972 479 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 They were well rested. They haven't played since their game against Helsinki last Tuesday. They have a game on Saturday afternoon before they play us, so probably not quite so fresh. It will be a different game at Ibrox and I'm confident we will get the win.

Mind the last time he scored last minute to give us some hope 😂. A few players back, 1 more competitive game, a full Ibrox and we are well in this. I wouldn't like to be them coming to the atmosphere there is going to be after not playing in a full stadium for 18 months. Hopefully the union bears keep their players up all night with fireworks too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post The Godfather 71,874 Posted August 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 3, 2021 17 minutes ago, DiamondDan said: The goal gives a lifeline but overall it was a shambolic performance. Doesn't bode well that the minute they're stuck in front of a crowd again and subject to any pressure they crumble. For all the talk of strength and depth there was none on the bench and the front 3 were toothless. Scott Wright is decent enough when Rangers are steamrolling shite in Scotland but will never be a player at that level. Itten is hopeless. Seen nothing to suggest Sakala will do anything either. The difference in that side when Morellos is missing is staggering. I will tell you another thing, anyone that thinks the league is a formality is dreaming as well. Its amazing how quickly a bit of success has went to people's heads and they now believe we only need to show up this season for a clean sweep. This is the same team thats bottled it repeatedly in cups, that mental fragility doesn't disappear because of 1 league win. You couldn't wait for us to stumble ya red neck.

I think another game under there belts at the weekend, some decent noise at Ibrox and Alfredo, Aribo & Hagi available for selection we’ll get the job done… Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
