Defence hasn't been great mostly down to individual errors rather than any terrible tactics. We have lacked pace at times when Dunne has been out, but overall not terrible. The Bowman/Maon combo hasn't presented any significant goal threat since the start of the season. I don't expect a ton of goals from Bowman; his role is obviously the grafter - something that worked well when he had Moult beside him. Main is obviously lacking confidence and I think could do with a game or two in the reserves just to get his Mojo back. No doubt he is a hard worker and good off the ball, but we need someone that is scoring and, right now, that's not him. Hopefully one good game will turn his season, but if not, he might end up doing a Fisher - a guy that could score goals, but whose bad run finished his chances at Fir Park.

Nursing a injury from the St Johnstone game, apparently - unrelated to the one that kept him out the previous games.

The MFC TV commentators were joking that even though we have an actual Spaniard in the squad, as far as footballing attributes are concerned, Turnbull is the most Spanish player at Fir Park.

I haven't quite worked out what his position has been the past couple of games. Nominally right back, but has been so advanced most of the time it's been more of an attacking midfielder. Maybe we have invented a new position - False 2. It has certainly worked.

Lot of good performances today. Grimshaw is one of those players that gets better and better with game time. Thought he was excellent today. Aldred and Hartley dug deep when required, and Tait put in a good shift. Turnbull turned in the same level of performance he manages in the U20s/Reserves, but definitely benefits from having Bigi alongside. You can see they are on the same wavelength and a lot of Turnbull's excellent play was started by Bigi finding him with a pass. I'd give Turnbull man of the match just for his goal. We will need to be patient with him, though, as he will inevitably hit rough patches and need benched from time to time.

If we are going for a back 4, I'm guessing Dunne is always going to be Robinson's choice for left back with a Hartley/Aldred central pairing.

A few years ago I remember someone saying we needed to sell one player a season and bring through 1 academy player a season. On that basis we have done pretty well. As it turned out it has been some of our academy players we sold (like Hall, Henegan and Erwin). That skews our perception somewhat as those guys only had one (or part of one) season in the first team. Whereas the fact they were sellable after such a short spell shows we are doing Ok. You could make an argument that Kipre was another success of our development programme. I do still believe, however, that we need to overhaul the country's general approach to youth development.

When Turnbull and Bigi are on form, we are lacking a striker with the same footballing brain to take advantage. Main and Bowman give us energy and power and link up play, but lack the nous of a Moult or a Higdon. It was no coincidence that Ciftci had his best game for us against Accies when Bigi and Turnbull were in the team. That is the type of player I was hoping we'd sign instead of Sammon - although I still have hopes that Johnson might give us that. Difficult to tell until he gets more minutes.

Turnbull and Bigi in the same team has added a level of creativity we have been sorely lacking - even if our strikers haven't been able to take advantage. I don't know if other opponents will afford us that luxury, but it's been fun to watch them this week. Not something you could say about many performances this season. Fair play to Robinson for taking that chance.

Well deserved 3 points. Only minor complaint is we should have scored more and made it more comfortable. Need our strikers to start taking their chances. 2 wins against 2 key rivals. Good stuff.

Deserved goal from Turnbull. He's been class today. Great vision and the quality to back it up with his passing.

One - if we had a striker.

I'm using Chrome on my Android set top box, and it's been a good streamt today.

Aye, we've just been lacking a wee bit of composure with our final ball.

On chrome, I'd try running it in an Incogntio Window. If you are on a laptop, Microsoft Edge usually works better than IE. Better team in open play. Dundee been dangerous at set pieces.

Nah, Turnbull had a great effort that he just didn't manage to keep down.

What browser? Can you open it in a private window?

Fake News!!!!! Must have been a Russian Twitterbot.

Robinson said yesterday McHugh and Tait both played through injury on Wednesday.

It was actually George W's fault in a feeble attempt to address an energy crisis brought on by his lack of policies to improve energy efficiency. But at least I can use the extra hour to hate them both.

This malarky with the US putting their clocks back the week after the UK means I have to wait an extra hour for kick off. It's murder.

Jimmy Sanderson, Richard ("that set the pigeons on fire") Park, Super Scoreboard and the post-match phone in. Compulsory listening on the drive home. "Were you at the game?" Good times.

I think the calculation has something to with whether the new club is ranked as a higher category than the old club. (I thought I had a link to the UEFA rules somewhere, but I can't find them). At least part of the value comes from a formula, but I don't know if that makes up 100% of the fee.

Given that GazzyB is out on the west coast of the US and I'm on the east coast of the US we both might struggle to make this one. Good thinking, though. (I also paid the club £120 for the privilege to watch the games online, so there's that too).

And this one is listed as streaming on MFC TV. So we should get a chance to enjoy it live this weekend.
