coprolite Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 This could be our highest possession of the season. Posession 24:76. Shots 1:6 On target 1:3 1-0 Motherwell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Unpopular but think I’d be dropping Ramsay today in favour of ojo or even mccrorie and get Gallagher in at centre half. We can’t afford to be losing cheap goals from balls into the box and Calvin has struggled badly of late. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welldaft Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I am sure I read somewhere that of the 7 home cup ties v Aberdeen we have only won once . It would appear that no fan of either team is confident and for good reason. If it was possible for both teams to lose it would be the outcome. All that said Aberdeen 2nd half performance v Celtic was a lot better than anything we have served up since the winter break. We have scored 1 goal in 5 games. Are conceding 2+ on average. Perversely in many ways I am happier to go into this game as is. I would worry even more if we were flying and Aberdeen were dismal. That 100% would mean an away win. I am hoping somehow we can turn in a performance but in all honesty our defence is so poor at the moment. So if I had to guess I would say 2-0 Aberdeen in normal time. Hopefully no referee balls ups to lead to either side losing (well apart from Aberdeen ). I am going for hospitality in the hope I am suitably numbed for the 90/120 minutes that unfolds. May the worst team win 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezz Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 The winners gets a quarter final spot. The losers gets to watch their team at least one less time this season, making them the real winners. I expect Grezza might go (even further) back to basics today after our run of recent results so I’m not expecting much in the way of football. Aberdeen look like they’ve conceded some daft goals recently but at least look semi-capable at the other end. 0-2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspect Device Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I'm struggling to have any sort of enthusiasm for this but it's good of Motherwell to keep the price of the PPV down to £12. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Mugabi back in the middle for this? Build the team out from there. KVV has to play as we have no focal point without him (very little with him). Keep Cornelius in there and fill the rest of the places with any of the jobbers from the squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van veen has scored half of his goals this season against us hasn't he? Would be negligent to not play him.

welldaft Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Van Veen is to Aberdeen what Cedric Itten is to Rangers v us. No doubt he is mercurial is our Van Veen. However I was talking to Jack Hamilton this morning and he felt he turned the game when he came on v Morton in the last round. I think he has to start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezz Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Donnelly keeping his place after his midweek performance is interesting but I’m glad to see O’Hara back.With that front 3, hopefully KVV has been told to stay between the width of the box and focus on sticking the ball in the net - Shields and Efford can do the donkey work out wide. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
