He's a big huddy, but he at least looks like he's bothered about being a huddy. Get him on, get the ball down, get it in his feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf to him when he actually gets the ball played in to his feet he keeps a hold of it. Johnson couldn't keep weans out of a close, never mind keep possession.

scmwell Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Totally agree he deserves a run of games hasn’t been given a real chance. He was scoring plenty when eremenko was setting them up at Killie maybe him and McCormack could be a decent partnership? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way we had set up on Saturday would have made a lot more sense with Sammon up top. Johnson was pointless in the lone role up there. I'd ideally like to see Dunne taken the f**k out of left back because he looks awful out there. Move Tait over there and play Grimshaw on the right imo.

If we play with a back 4 it either means sticking Dunne at LB (where he's fucking awful) or dropping Hartley who may be slow but is also our captain. If we go with a back 3 it gets Hartley and Dunne in the team but then means sacking off the wingers he spent the winter break talking up. That said, there was chat when he signed that Ariyibi can play through the middle... Gillespie Grimshaw Aldred Dunne Tait Campbell McHugh Turnbull Ariyibi Sammon Hastie or Gillespie Aldred Hartley Dunne Grimshaw Campbell McHugh Turnbull Tait Ariyibi Sammon Either way get the big man on the park.

That's exactly the line up I was thinking for tonight. If Frear passes fit then possibly start him but either way we can't play that horrific 4-4-1-1 again.

The other thing is that for all the flak Robinson took for his interview post-match on Saturday it'd explain why he felt we need a 'target man' if that's the sort of shape he's got in mind. Get lining up with 2 central midfielders to utter f**k though. 3 man midfield with Campbell and McHugh kicking folk please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DosserDel Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Absolutely fkn baltic this morning. Was standing scraping ice off the car thinking that I'd rather be anywhere else tonight, rather than at Fir Park watching another abject display and inevitable tonking , but I'll be there. Aff ma fuckin heid. Prediction : Motherwell nil - Hibs several. Cannae wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyWellFan Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Wasn’t looking forward to this but I’ve a strange feeling that we’ll come out on top 2-1 in a half decent game. This is based on nothing however as we’re shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desp Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Hopefully McCormack is doing his best Alexei Eremenko impression by turning up fat as f**k. Get him in behind Sammon and the Fish will start banging them in. Motherwell 3-6 Hibs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 433 then? Hastie and Main start. Fish and Hartley on the bench. Bigi back on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Gillespie Grimshaw Aldred Dunne Tait Campbell Gorrin Hastie Turnbull Ariyibi Main Is the only remotely sensible line-up I can work out from there. Honestly no fucking idea how that's going to play out. Should be a laugh though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DosserDel Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Absolutely no idea how they will line up from that starting 11, capt_oats 2 variations above both plausible. If nothing else, the shits and giggles watching them try to adapt to yet another set-up might take our minds off the cold a bit. Still amazed, like everyone else that Curtis Main involved yet again after contributing the square root of f**k all for the last 6 months. Punt him to f**k.

Swello Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Frear not there - another one that brings something to the team when fit and on form but isn't physically able to cope at this level it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one m in Motherwell Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Is it just me that thinks Frear is just a bit pish? I think I’ve seen him beat a man about three times in his entire time with us. Although much is down to him being used as a wingback, I’ve never seen him offer anything really of note at all.I actually quite like the look of that lineup (aside from Main, but tbh we don’t really have anyone who could play in that role at the mo), but fully expect a collapse twenty minutes in when we realise we’ve not ‘earned the right to play football’ and start aimlessly punting it over the east stand.
