RossBFaeDundee Posted November 24, 2021 Author Share Posted November 24, 2021 Considering our only two midfielders fit to play on Saturday are Adam and Gowser, I'm not particularly looking forward to seeing how we deal with that. We've already conceded 9 in the last 2 home games, I fear what that stat may look like over the last 3 home games after this weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I think logic dictates we should probably be favourites here but I'm uncomfortable ever predicting us to win three on the bounce, would take a point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking hell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a drop off in performance when he had to go off at Fir Park but would he have finished the game if he hadn’t been injured? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kapowzer Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 1 hour ago, capt_oats said: Aye. Sort of. He's played a fair bit but midfield's been an issue for us this season. Arguably the Hearts game on Saturday was the first time it's looked vaguely functional and I don't think there would be any argument that it was one of our best performances of the season. That was with Slattery, Maguire and Goss as the midfield 3. O'Hara wasn't in the squad (not that the two things are linked we've won our fair share with him starting and playing the 90). I'm not sure whether that performance and the boy we're signing from Bohemians will have a knock on in terms of how much O'Hara plays. If that makes sense? He started the season with an injury so missed most of pre-season but pretty much went straight into the team when he was fit. I think we have to be careful not to put Saturday down to just personnel (which you did - but many won't), it was a dramatic shift in tactics and approach from all that preceded it. I don't think just Hearts were surprised and probably upset their gameplan, but so were much of the home support. Probably explains why Nielsen has some sand in his fanny during his post match interview, he lost but was also outfoxed. A good player will look average if tasked with a role that doesn't play to their strengths and quite often this season I feel GA's tactics have hobbled a lot of our players and drew them personal criticism by a support not looking at the context surrounding their poor performances at times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 With Jordan McGhee ruled out, Shaun Byrne ruled out and Max Anderson doubtful that means we are down to a midfield 2 of McGowan and Adam or McPake does some batshit mental experiment. Well done on the 3 points Motherwell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross County look decent - think they’ll beat United on Saturday. From what I’ve seen of County I think they have enough to finish above the bottom 2. We need to catch Livingston as soon as possible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. I reckon Ross County will take at least a point off United. To be fair I don’t think any of us can even remotely complain if we are bottom come Saturday 5pm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gianfranco Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Aye I feel like extra pressure has been put on Dundee after tonight’s result. Although I’m very much still looking over our shoulder still to be fair. Fucking Hibs the useless b*****ds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be the most Motherwell ever to lose to an allegedly depleted Dundee team after picking up 2 unexpected wins on the bounce. You’d like to think our current mindset and competition for places can see us avoid such an outcome however. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 (edited) The stars don't have to align too much for us to go 8 points clear of 6th here. All the more to suggest a victory for the plucky Dees. Edited November 25, 2021 by YassinMoutaouakil 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swello Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Just got an email from Motherwell saying that there is no PATG for us at the game (apparently a late notice change by Dundee) - less than ideal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
