*****Official Champions V Hibs Match Thread*****

[ESWF 144]

Another half of football without a shot on a target. Without a goal. With yet another poor goal conceded. We are a complete mess. This team don’t have it in them to turn this around & take all 3pts .

[CoplandStandBear 995]

We need to start hitting more aimless crosses, make a sub at 70 minutes and then really try hard for a goal at about 85 minutes.

Davis, Sakala and Roofe. and we will win

If Sakala is the answer I’m not sure I want to know the question! 😉

Sakala would get caught offside again and again and we’d all be tearing our hair out.

[Scottywellhousetb 50,646]

Seen stair lifts in care homes travel faster than us going forward. 

[Moody Blue Legend 61,774]

Can't stop crosses and can't create chances.  Not a good combination.  

[falkirkNS 6,298]

No drive, no aggression, no high intensity pressing, slumping from one game to the next.

Squad with 4 players atleast who thought they were all getting big money moves to England or Italy.

Speaks volumes we're not confident of beating a ten-man Hibs. 

Nope not confident of even scoring once. There’s always another slip in our defence too

Why are all our players incapable of shooting on target?!  Lots of little intricate passes when a shot on target would be the better option.

Exactly what I see....the extra pass does my fucking nut in

[Moody Blue 9,470]

Patterson had a good finish to the half, driving crosses in from the bye line rather than the floaty shite that Tav does.  Still lacking bodies in the box, Morelos well off it and I'm afraid Wright is powder puff.  I wouldn't risk Aribo either, could sub half the team tbh. 

[Nelson loyal 552]

Aribo and Wright off Roofe and sakala on 

[Broxi 11,540]

Morelos probably isn't the problem today but the only good stuff he does for us these days is outside the box. He's not offered anything inside the box or been anywhere near enough of a scoring threat for months (pushing on years) now and that's simply not good enough for our main striker. 

All he does is get the ball and switch the play to the other end, other than that he's no threat whatsoever.

[Drumloyal 15,057]

Neil correctly lambasting Borna, also Goldson and Lundstram for not picking up Nisbet. Like to hear that rather than being a mindless fuckin cheerleader.

Hope it’s Sakala not Roofe that comes on. Roofe was fucking useless mid week, Sakala at least offers threat with his pace 

Sakala will be offside a dozen times if he plays.

 

[BlueThunder 8,454]

Lundstram lost Nesbit for their goal.

[Vision 16,746]

Roofe for Wright maybe change Aribo don't want that red card getting evened up. 

Can see hibs breaking play up with niggly fouls trying to hit on the break, we need a goal quickly, best chance from a penalty but will Walsh give it?

Whats happened to our finishing touch this season?

One of many things that has went missing from last season.

Backline that rarely conceded last season now giving goals away. 

Team that pressed the opposition on the park, sitting back too deep. 

[Misteral 2,932]

Keep the faith, Bears.

100% bang on. He is zero threat

Pussy barasic 

I'd take him off now and hound him, goldson I'd sell for 1 million in January and bring katic back and maybe a top loan from the epl

An absolute disgraceful performance so far.

i feel like this gets said pretty much every game we play.

[kelvd1873 7,279]

Barasic and Goldson at fault for their goal. Goldsons head is elsewhere.

Hes the only boy in this squad i would be disappointed if we lost him , they rest are over rated shite......

[The Archer 1,166]

Barisic doesn’t tackle like Bassey and Goldson standing like a prick in the middle blaming everybody else.Where is our ball winning CH like Cuellar,Amo,Boumsoung,Butcher etc

He’s done fuck all from the word go this season let’s be real. He’s part of the problem

Goldson too. In fact Goldson more so. They have 2 strikers on the pitch and Balogun is already picking up Boyle so for me, Goldson takes more responsibility for picking up the other striker (Nesbit) than a central midfielder (Lundstram).
