    Calm down guys .13 points ahead.even if huns win tomorrow we will still be 10 points ahead. 11 points really with goal difference with 5 games to play.4 points from 5 games will virtually seal the league but that's still * from us today. Still can see huns dropping points though.HH.keep the faith.

    Can let the lads off with certain things with how far ahead we are, have ran the show, can't expect to win every game, but Mooy isn't in any team of mine. He's noticeably slow. Turnbull isn't fast as * but at least he turns with pace.

    Anyway, this would be a nightmare of a score if we weren't miles ahead, so nae worries bhoys. Think they deserve a break.

    Lack of cutting edge today and are struggling with depth on the wings. Having Jota and Abada available makes a huge difference, as does Hatate obviously.

    Should have won it with that Oh chance, that was a * ball buster. 100% should bury that.

    Far too slow and overplaying it, too many touches on the ball and not enough shots. They had 1 big chance and took it, we squandered several.

    Would rather we * up this game though and show up at the semi. We really need Hatate, Jota and Abada though.

    Waited a full week for us to play that *, I hate a week between games cause now we have to sit from being * for a week especially before the semi final.

    We missed to many chances, Oh should have been scoring from Vata's cross, Starfelt with the poor header at the end tehre and the one from that free kick that was saved well by Kelly.

    Kyogo unlucky with the one he came rushing out for too

    Defended badly for their goal, that was pretty much the only chance they had, needed someone to step up on that 2nd half but no one really did.

    Brush it off, look at where we failed and pick up from it.

    Win the rest of the games and score the goals we should have, and it's all there for the records

    Really poor second half.

    Vata and Iwata were decent though.

    Need to step it up next week. Can't play badly two weeks in a row, surely?

    Motherwell were embarrassing with their tactics. Last team I watched as bad as that were Hibs under Maloney. Frustrating to play against.

    The frustrating thing is, we had one effort on target after their keeper was down.

    Despite Vata's inexperience, I would start him over Hacksa if it comes to it next week.

    I just wish we would take more shots from outside the box. It was clear they were dropping back just to block everything. We kept hitting the first defender so a few digs from distance would open it up a bit

    We’re allowed an off day guys.

    Motherwell should be ashamed of the time wasting and feigning injury.

    Better getting a bad game out of our system before playing the tramps.

    This will have no material effect on the destination of the title!

    we have to hope Hatate and Jota are fit to play the tramps. We’ll need them.

    Tell you what, Maeda and Mooy are both back to their pre-world cup selves. Absolute pish from both of them.

    I dont think Jota or Abada would have made too much difference if stuck out on the wings. Their tactics was to force us into the middle and it worked. It was individual moments we missed today, we had none of it.

    Why Maeda keeps crossing high balls instead of low balls on the deck is beyond me.

    Too little urgency in the second half when it was clear they were going to be spending a lot of that half time wasting. Mooy and Kyogo were trying their hardest and a lot of our play went through them late on, but Motherwell did well to limit our chances. Great cross from Vata to give Oh that chance, which he has to be scoring. Taylor was shocking for their goal.

    If wager Jota has a lot of creative flair to break down team than Maeda does as does Abada. Hatate also

    Totally agree mate but ange will sort it for next week. If both jota and hatate are out next week we could struggle. But the huns are * too

    Cheers Tony, I was in and out of the game so you'd know better than me. Am just looking at Maeda and Haksa thinking neither are at the level I want to see, and with no Jota or Abada on the bench it feels like we were woefully short of options. Vatw dud well when he came on of course.
