When you can dominate the team sitting in third spot as much as we did today and they had only 1 defeat to their name, no reason to fear any team. However, we have to repeat that level of performance every week.
I’m agreeing with you. When the guy was through first half but couldn’t control it could have been a chance but wasn’t. When the guy had the ball in the box but Lamie stripped him, could have been a chance but wasn’t. Although Boyce did have a chance in second half but it it straight at Kelly. On the other hand Gordon had several great stops to deny us more goals.
Enjoyed that today. Terrific effort and playing as a team. What a difference when you press as a team and not just a couple of individuals. We looked as though we had a connection between defense and midfield and then midfield to attack. I kept waiting on us letting up but we came out second half and just kept right on doing what was working. Winning 4-0 wouldn’t have flattered us. More of the same please!!!
Well played Stephen O’Donnell. Another fine game for Scotland. Read some amount of shite spouting forth on face book, pre match. Half the fkn idiots not even aware that Patterson was suspended. Maybe they need to sort themselves out before talking crap about others.
Gave it to KVV for 2 goals and not getting sent off. When their guy went marauding up that right wing in first half, KVV actually had the sense not to stick his foot in and pulled back.
Difference today was that we didn’t shoot ourselves in the foot. We had a damn good try at it a few times but managed not to. Next game against Hearts which is not beyond us winning. We gifted them 2 goals at Tynecastle. If we can avoid the self destruct button we have a decent chance.
I also like O’Donnell and I do think he is a good player. However, I’d say he is going through a run of bad form. That’s said as a comparison of how good he can be and not as a comparison to other players. Mugabi has played well enough to merit maintaining a starting spot in that position but remains to be seen what GA decides for the hearts game.
Well Bevis has given GA that problem to deal with. Does he drop him after another good display in that position? Im still not keen on McGinley. Dare we put Lamie there or is Lamie only reliable at middle o defense? I prefer Carroll over McGinley but obviously GA doesnt. Hard to argue with top 6 placing after away win at Aberdeen, 2 games into second round of fixtures.
Credit to Lamie coming on and playing well. He’s looked solid this season so far. Bevis again having a good game at right back. Woolery contributed well when he came on to take pressure off the defense and we managed the last 10 mins pretty well. If only we can fix the midfield. Did see a wee bit more from Goss this week so maybe he will continue to contribute more as each game goes by. Thought O’Hara put in a power of work but still no “football” from the midfield and still too many slack passes but certainly more tolerable when you get the 3 points.
