wellup83 Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 A leader of a centre half and a midfield General the minimum required to create a spine in this team. Absolutely gutless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We obviously changed some of the personnel tonight to give them some minutes and try a different front 3 formation, but none of them have put a claim in for a starting spot as they say.

This is the frustrating thing. I know it's pre season but there's plenty of warning signs. We don't have the basics eg pass to man in same coloured shirt, move into space etc. We also get outfought in midfield in almost every game. We are a very easy , predictable team to to up against.

Stevie73 Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 Another weak heartless display, so easy to score against, we saw the heartless non fighting displays last year, hoped for better. Sad thing is we win on Saturday and probably still top the group. Rank …. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every year we see the July panic and every year it has zero relevance (good or bad) to the league campaign. Then again, I've seen us get hammered in the League Cup by the likes of Queens Park and Clyde, so not that worried now. We'll win the next win and on we go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underboyleheating Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 We have been very, very poor tonight. Airdrieonians seem to want it more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 See to be honest, as bad as tonight is I genuinely don’t think we can use this as a gauge as to how our season will go. We do have genuine concerns ahead of the new season but Motherwell teams over the years, no matter how good or bad, ability wise have (almost) always fell short in derby games like this. That’s not me trying to excuse what’s happened tonight but unfortunately it just seems like a very ‘Motherwell’ type result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It bloody well is. We are the top flight team. But u would never know. It has been an awful performance regardless of the pitch and opposition. That team will get us relegated. I would start 4 of them. Anymore and out 30 year stay in the top flight will be over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelboy Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 Seedorf got a brief chance under Alexander before getting bombed out. Hopefully the same is about to happen to Lawless. Physically he is miles off the required standard. If Watt isn't happy under Alexander he can fuck off as well because we can't carry passengers. Crawford is terrible and should be no where near Fir Park. We need new midfielders plus O'Hara and Donnelly fit or replaced. Rhys McCabe got outplayed by our u20s not that long ago and bossed our the first team tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is where I would say let’s not panic, the starting 11 will not be the same when the league kicks off, maybe half of the team will be different.

It worries me that we extended Crawfords contract , played him last year and playing him again this season. Maguire regular last year under GA and same again. Not blaming those 2 players for losing - I don't think the formation is right. All I'm saying is I didn't enjoy watching us last season and not enjoying the pre season either. Appreciate a long way to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
