Motherwell v Aberdeen


Recommended Posts

Thoroughly enjoying this game. Both teams at it from the start. Was a clear dive for the penalty. Lewis pulled out of the tackle.

Greg Leigh excellent and great pass for goal. Excellent movement from Cosgrove and cool finish.

Logan a bag of nerves.

Gallagher at the back for Motherwell is best player on pitch.

Can’t see us keeping a clean sheet.

It's just one of those days when it doesn't go our way, it's as obvious as the nose on the end of your face. I've watched Motherwell long enough to know when it's not going to go our way. So far we have missed a penalty, lost a key player and in true Motherwell fashion conceded a goal while we've had in injured player. 

Bad day at the office.

Dreadful. Motherwell are playing like statues and consistently making the wrong decision, two things which are not going to get success against a team with all 11 in their own half at all times.
 

Some goal from Cosgrove if he chipped it in from his own half. Can't wait to see it on RedTV.

Think that’s an unfair comment on Aberdeen mate. We’re hardly playing with 11 in our own half. Despite having so many defenders on the pitch, this is the most attacking and positive I’ve seen us in weeks.

Every time we go forward it's 11 men behind the ball, it's effective but it's chronic to watch.

Cosgrove took advantage of us being down to 10 men with a guy who failed in the championship at centre back covering at the back and took his goal well, no doubt.

Other than that and a horrendous dive for the penalty, the game has been rancid but that'll suit Aberdeen just fine.

Remember Motherwell utilising these tactics many times in the past. Frustrating to watch when losing to it.

Leigh playing centre mid? Don't think anyone would have predicted that.

Thought Leigh played really well in the first half.
Classic disciplined McInnes performance so far. Not pretty, but so far it’s been effective.
For a change, we actually look threatening on the counter attack. Delicious finish from big Sam on a break away.

Scott and Seedorf are totally ineffective against sides defending as stoutly as Aberdeen are today, they are just so easily nullified.

Far better than I thought it would be. Leigh and Vyner very effective in the holding role. Forward players doing their bit by providing an out ball. Surprisingly positive for having 6 defenders on the park. Not a style for playing against good teams though.

A few said Aberdeen would come here and try and shitfest a win.  Fair fucks to them, it's worked a treat so far. 

Dive for the penalty. Some save. 

Maguire showing he's definitely not a centre half by being done by Cosgrove at the goal. Great finish. 

Lewis time wasting after 38 minutes. Those training sessions with Cerny are paying off. A 9.5 on the shithousery scale. You can only applaud. 

We'll need to improve in the second half. Scott up against Considine isn't working. Maybe we nick one from a set piece.

Leigh has been excellent, probably our best player.

Effort and commitment from every one of them has been great to see. Not something that could have been said in most games this season.

Still think we can’t keep a clean sheet and if Motherwell target Logan, that’s where it’s coming. Wilson doesn’t track back to cover like McGinn would on that side...and judging by his first half, Logan NEEDS that cover [emoji23].

From a Motherwell fan who’s team regularly time waste when ahead.

 

The first half of the LC QF being a fine example.

 

Football fans eh [emoji23][emoji23]
