Yep, well done Stama. Another penalty in the bag.

Yep, it’s the same old problem with him. A number 9 has to finish those chances.

You can add the glorious chance he missed around the 27–28 minute mark today to his ever-growing list of missed sitters. Look back through the threads and you’ll find plenty of references to his constant spurned chances, which is why he ended up with the “nearly man” nickname.

Right then, which one of you is Marcus?

Stama’s inability to score from anything other than the spot has nothing to do with our system. He’s had chance after chance under different managers and setups, and he keeps fluffing them for reasons we’ve all gone over already. At this point he’s just an expensive investment who hasn’t delivered what you expect from a number 9. As for Hendry, I’m starting to think the jury isn’t out anymore and that he might not cut it either. We’re not short of goals right now, but we still need to go out in January and sign a proper striker.

10-0

Outworked us so far. A bit like the St Mirren semi. Let’s see what JBA does second half.

All artificial pitches should be gone from the Premiership. If you can’t grow grass in Scotland, you’ve no business being in the top flight.

I gave it to Just because he’s such an intelligent player and genuinely a joy to watch. That said, I could easily have given it to Welsh for the stability he brings to the system and the quality he shows playing out from the back. Our number one priority should be trying to sign him permanently or bringing in someone similar.

It’s not a must-win game, but it’s definitely one we should be looking to win comfortably. 0-2 to the ‘Well.

A really impressive 0–0 performance where we were unlucky not to take all three points. I honestly can’t remember being that nervous and entertained by a scoreless draw.

Last night showed that JBA can adapt and keep other managers on their toes (knees).

Just imagine what our current goal tally would be if we had a number 9 capable of scoring more than just penalties.

Once JBA gets poached, Max Rogers is our next manager. Not Maloney. He was only there last night to learn from the master.

This should be a cracking game. I’m going for another 3–3, or a 3–2 win for us if the stars align.

Last night proved we can rotate the starting eleven without shifting our fundamental approach. It also underlined JBA’s tactical nous in adapting formations to the game while keeping our style intact. With a few January ins/outs, we should only get better as the season progresses.

But he was subbed at 84 minutes 😉

Superb. We completely strolled that.

Priestman grew into the game and thoroughly deserves MOTM tonight.

You’re missing the context that his new manager publicly criticised him in the media, which isn’t really the best way to treat a young signing. As I said before, Miller still can’t get a game, and at this rate he needs a loan move in January or hope the manager gets replaced so a new one actually gives him a chance.

Kettlewell is getting his jotters for Christmas.

We did in the end, but we were struggling in the second half until we scored the penalty.

The inability to hold onto a lead really is pathetic.

Udinese beaten again today and Miller still can’t get a game off the bench. At this rate he needs a loan move in January or hope the manager gets emptied and a new guy actually gives him a chance.

He's just a shite Rasmus Højlund 🎶
