A prolific striker, a mercurial winger, an imposing defender? Gavin Reilly is currently channeling Beppe Signori in front of goal (limited time offer only) and his strike partner Gozie Ugwu will give Motherwell's defence a physical contest. No obvious stars in the outfield line-up. For any result we'll be relying on Jack Hamilton to put his shot-stopping ability to good use, as opposed to his comparable skill at 'chucking crosses into the net' throughout his career. He has been generally excellent this season but has had a few hapless wobbles too - he wouldn't be playing at Championship level if he didn't. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Strapp will go right through his own granny to get the ball and then will chuck it 40 yards into the penalty box from the resulting throw-in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can chuck it 40 yards, do you place your tallest player 45 yards away like we do? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 It'll not be easy tomorrow as Morton are in better shape at the moment but in some ways, I feel more confident after we made an arse of it on Tuesday - I doubt anyone in the squad will want to see Alexander in that mood again. Interesting to see if the mistake from McGinley and the old-skool Mugabe performance are enough to cost them their place in defence - it feels like if you have a squad and genuine competition for places that we do, that being pish has some consequences. A lot might depend on whether Ojala is finally fit. I'd like to see Slattery and/or Cornelius back in the team as it's not obvious to me why either of them have dropped out. Up front feels like it will be same again, especially as Roberts scored that belter on Tueday. It's the cup, I don't care if it's a 6-0 or through on penalties but it's time we had a decent run again.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paisley Ton Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Well NHS Scotland have truely scuppered any chance of my physical attendance on Saturday. Read the app comments, made sure I used chrome but no validation success and doubt if paper passport will arrive on time. So need the streaming option. Is this available tomorrow or do I have to wait until the replay to see our centenary heroes advance to the next round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santheman Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Hard game tomorrow but I take heart that when we have had a howler we have usually come out in the next game with a bit of fire in our bellies which will hopefully see us through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure it's vaccinated or in the presence of a negative lateral flow test. So surely if you do a test and register it on the NHS site, you'd be golden? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the cup though, we're allowed to dream. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamMFC Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I'm feeling slightly less confident about this after our howler in midweek. Hopefully make a few changes: Carroll has to come in for McGinley and Slattery should be starting again aswell. I don't think our midfield has been the same when he hasn't started. Any idea if Shaw and/or Tierney are available for this one? Front 3 stays the same from midweek. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boozyBJ Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Looking forward to only my second game of the season or rather looking forward to my first beer since new year before (and prob after) game. No score prediction from me but hopeful for a positive result after Tuesdays humbling 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marinello Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 GA indicates none of the missing will be back and that 2 who played on Tuesday will be out. Methinks those are Mugabi who was limping after his 'Bambi on ice' frolics and Maguire who was subbed despite being our best midfielder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Is this fives subs with 9 on the bench and an extra sub for extra time? How many goalies will we name in the squad? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casagolda Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 (edited) I was confident we’d bounce back with a win here but got to admit I’ve got the fear a bit now after seeing that team. Obviously no idea of who’s fit or who’s got knocks etc but having your best centre back, best central midfielder and best striker all sitting on the bench seems like a bold strategy. Good to see Shaw and Tierney involved though. Edited January 22, 2022 by Casagolda 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
