Outstanding! Yea we didnt win but full credit to the lads we put everything into that game and a point was the least we deserved. Thought butland was their best player. We were the better team by any metric. Letting them sing for 85 minutes then shutting them right up was a nice touch!
And i reckon Priestman is going to be some player next season!
No fear. Whats worst that can happen? We get beat and the very long shot of winning the league is over.
Im actually pumped for the game. Its not that often we play games that are big with something on the line. Exciting!
I think theres every chance of top3. First is a pipedream but lets enjoy it while we can. 2nd& 3rd are not far infront of us & we are currently playing better than both
Postponement would mean that we can hold a shadowy distance away from the top 3, keeping us under the radar longer & pressure off.
The pundits & media wont bat an eyelid at us until we are touching the old firm. Leave us with games in hand may be no bad thing......
A draw isnt the worst result however if we want to entertain thoughts of still being in the mix when we get to the home straight then we need to win.
Absolutley crazy that we have built a team & a run now that has the potential to challenge. Fanciful yes & a long shot but we may as well give it a go!
If Alexander was putting together the sort of winning runs we are currently seeing & making the team look sexy as fuck while doing it, he would have been judged differently as well.
If you had asked me a few months ago if he was worth it i would have said no. However, he's 23 & getting better & better. Potential suitors are speculating on a rising comodity. Unlike KVV or Higdon.
If someone wants to eclipse the Miller fee, then its all good news for us & the player.
If he keeps up this form his value is only going to increase & £6.5m in the summer will be reasonable to expect. Probably be a number of options available to the player to explore rather than telling him hes off to Turkey & thats it.
