Agree in an attacking sense but I think he puts a lot of grunt work in defensively. Attacking wise he wants a touch too many before shooting, struggles to get crosses past the defender closing him down and seems a bit unwilling to take players on and run at them. Definately a player that needs thru balls behind the defence to run onto.

I imagine at some point Effords, Shields and Spittal will be sat down and Cornelius, Moult and McKinstry will participate although not sure when or in which order. I think any other subs will be for injuries or perhaps if Slattery gets really knackered having been out for a bit.

Hopefully still saying thanks after the game !

KVV will start scoring. Moult will chip in with a few and others will add in. Keep playing and making the amount of chances we have made and the goals will come. Long way to go in the season but I’m enjoying watching us again and I believe the goals will come.

Yes, thought we handled the second half better. Maybe the players will take some hope from todays game that we can get a result in the cup

I didn’t expect it to improve today but I think the goals will come

Stick on Red so glad the ref actually produced it. Can’t believe we let Morris take that free kick as other poster noted, should have given it to Penny.

Decent better score line than I was anticipating.

Who let Morris near that kick

Fk

Hart just ran into him

Lol. I’ll take it

When is it our turn to get the ball?

I approach these games expecting defeat and yet still manage to come away hugely disappointed when we get beat. Regardless of whether it’s a hammering or a close fought game.

Is Slattery injured? edit: seen comment on twitter.

KVV scoring touch needs to click sometime and Moult up there alongside him to bang in a few as well. Could be embarrassing for Celtic. gone for a lie down now.

4 is decent. 6 would be very good. Any more would be excellent and totally unexpected.

That’s for the league cup, right? Saturdays game 3pm ok ?

I can handle that. Although I’d like to see Aaron’s get fit and push for a place in the side. Not shown much initially but he might be able to contribute.

If we can win either game or get a draw in the league game I’ll be happy. edit: actually if we play well and get beat by the odd goal, I’ll be ok, maybe not happy but ok. I’ll take it as progress if we make a good game of it.

He’s definitely a big upgrade on what we had.

Motherwell reserves now 2 up

So far against the bottom 4 teams, we play county this week and the other 3 we have 1 point out of 9. We will be doing very well if we get 3 points from this.

I thought the ref made the right call in that situation. The ball broke to Watt who was offside so Utd got no advantage and so he gave them the free kick.

Disappointed we only tied and that KVV missed so many chances but keep creating the chances and the goals will come. I think it’s very promising how many good chances we created from open play. Probably created more in todays game than in the last year under GA. I think Effords is contributing more going down the right hand side and will hopefully keep improving and add in some goals. Wouldn’t surprise me if KVV manages another few hat tricks over the season. Not his best day today but other days he will score most of them.
