One of the most incredibly one-sided first halves. It almost seemed too easy. Brought it on ourselves… again.
Not blaming him for that, but as always we fell away in the second half, and he failed to react at the right time or with the right people. Again. The obsession with everyone needing to be expert passers of a football have left us with the wrong keeper for the majority of the season, and wasting a good DM. Poch loved a passer too, but saw the value in Wanyama.
Agreed. Che gets his fair share of goals, but that is literally just because we dominate games so much. His composure/shooting is absolutely woeful.
I should've gone down to Sholing instead, they won their relegation 6 pointer today 3-0 and stay up for another year.
It’s absolutely devastating supporting this club over the last few seasons. Every big game. Every chance we have to do something good… we blow it. Soul destroying. A few highs like last minute winners, followed by huge lows of throwing games away when we should be out of sight.
Shea Charles is a long way from being Wanyama though. And it wasn't in the middle of the pitch that we lost today's game. The players looked fatigued today, understandably so. So I lay a bit of blame on Russ for not rotating the squad a bit more. But despite being leggy, we still dominated the game to the extent that it should have been 3-0 by half-time, at the very least.
They really are. But I'll prefer watching Ross Stewart's lanky legs if he can actually score a goal from further than 6 yards out.
Not the result we wanted, but still: just a game of football. For Stuart Armstrong though: an hour ago he was looking forward to negotiating a final lucrative contract to see out his career, maybe somewhere exotic like Italy or back to Celtic. He was excited about playing for Scotland in the euros, something that happens almost never. Now: he’s potentially looking at a year of recovery and a real possibility of never playing again. Cruel game…
Brought on Charles for Stu at 1-0. Aribo still had energy but stu looked ****ed. Would have taken brooks off for Fraser at 1-0 as well. As usual Martin waited too long. He is not reactive enough. He has cost us many points this season. I don’t know why he thinks Sulemana and Rothwell will make any positive impact at all. Rothwrell if he comes on has to go to 10. He is not a 6
