PauloPerth Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Motherwell midfield far better in possession than our three, but the Well defence is shite and look to have a few errors in them, especially with Kane harrying them. Need to get MOH and Kemnedy on the ball higher up the pitch more often as I think they’d both get a lot of joy. Liam Craig has touched the ball twice since his penalty miss. Him, Goss and Davidson is giving us no energy in midfield, get Callachan on. Take any of the three off. Foster been decent. Kane isolated at times but putting in a great shift.

nelsjfc Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Done alright, playing this shape suits us much better. Similarly Goss has added a bit more composure on the ball even if he looks bit switched off when saints aren't on the ball. I love Davidson but there are days where his his lack of ability on the ball really frustrates you; with him on a booking I'd be tempted to take him off for Callaghan on soon given he'll now be less effective. Be ideal if had Alston to come on in that role though. Another bloody penalty miss though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goss is adding nothing, a few neat touches isnt enough. Davidson is who I'd take off though, just a matter of time until hes sent off, his shite first touch has led to a couple of counters and a yellow for him. A professional footballer who cant control a pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Deserved lead, any team who allows an opposition centre half to saunter deep into your own half, and play a pass to the edge of the box, under no pressure, deserves nothing. Kane missing the target, twice, from within six yards sums up this season. Missed opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Far too easy. I genuinely think we've had about two shots on target since the winter break, it's just embarrassing watching us try and attack teams. CB to full back, full back to midfielder, midfielder to full back, straight out for throw in. It's boring, Tommy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Negative, turgid, predictable, shite, yet again. Wright is the best manager we'll ever have, but it's at the stage where he'll be forcing fans away with this. Its acceptable when you're winning, but when you're going almost four months without setting up to win a game, and barely creating chances, it's not. Our seasons over now, hes not got an excuse not to open up, if we spend the next 7 meaningless games playing for a 1-0 our season tickets sales will be horrendous.

senorsoupe Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Really impressed with Motherwell of late, the rise of young skilled players is really good to see, especially given their recent history of being a team of hammer throwers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nelsjfc Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 7 goals in 13 matches since the break. Exciting stuff. Maybe we could do with a few more battlers, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radford Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Nothing in the match for 70 minutes but one of those games where after we went behind we were done for. I thought three flattered Motherwell but then you consider that Frear missed when clean through and Tait hit the bar as well. Crazy. Wright tried to match up and largely succeeded but the side effect was their centre backs having time on the ball and the opener comes from that. It's a nice flick and finish though. I guess by that stage it seemed like a first goal the winner type of fixture. Big moment for us is the penalty miss. It's a crap kick from Craig. Infuriating. Work to be done ahead of next season for sure. For Tommy Wright, that should start on Monday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloPerth Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 First hour fairly even but The Motherwell subs changed the game. As mentioned we fell to bits after conceding.. it’s not as if we’re piling forward in chase of an equaliser so no excuse for it. We haven’t looked like a team who would battle back from a deficit for a long time. A squad full of talented attacking players and we can barely put any semblance of attacking play together. Just force the ball forward and hope we get a break seems to be the game plan. Agree with RG’s comments, nothing to lose now. Either we open up and try to play some attacking play or all but the most committed of Saints fans will give games a swerve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_B Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I see Craig hit his penalty exactly the same place he puts virtually every single one. I’d have let Kane, Kerr, Tanser or Kennedy take that before him today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Saints Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Over confidence seeping into the squad ... That's your best one in a while. Utter tosh. If you know the manager or any of the players then you would be assured there is no such issue as over confidence within this squad.To be fair, I don’t think that’s exactly what Random meant. Pretty sure he isn’t referring to over-confidence in regards to their footballing abilities or performances, but rather an over-confidence that they’re guaranteed a spot in the team regardless of how badly they play.
