    Really disappointed, especially with the last 20 minutes or so.

    We've become a wee bit one-dimensional. Too happy to just knock it from side-to-side with no real tempo or purpose and everything is too central. The passing needs to be quicker and crisper, we need more players willing to run beyond the striker, and we need the full-backs to make more over-lapping runs to really stretch the play.

    Possession is great, but it isn't everything. I'd rather we sacrifice a bit of the ball for an extra attacking thrust,

    tale of two halfs and two goalkeepers

    that being said andy walker should be neutered, and any existing children he has should be held under armed guard in the * tundra, so that his progeny be denied access to society, for the benefit of all mankind...

    he literally went from a resigned and depressed "a goal is coming" to a sixty second euphoric wankathon when he saw the two minute stoppage, coupled with * babblings about the imagined heroics of a motherwell side that not only parked the bus but burnt it out and left it there

    is it petition time or is that too sevco?

    * it, Ive done ok this year... 5k to the first wan a' ye to bang his missus and send him into a spiral of depression to keep him of the air...

    wait... does he even have a missus? Or does he just * into a hole he made in a David Tanner body pillow whilst ceremoniously stuffing secvo match programs up his prolapsed *.

    Sometimes we have too much possesion our best chances s come from a break from the back.

    We’re 10 points clear with a game in hand, the league is wrapped up we’ve already got a cup in the bag and a semi final to come in the other and if you weren’t aware of those facts and read some of the pish in here you’d think we were Partick Thistle :56::56::56:

    When did I say we were?

    Last season a lot of our play was based on pressing high up and nicking the ball off of side's. It's worked well as few time's this season, most recently with Zenit at home. We definitely don't seem to be pressing as much from the front like we did..

    I do agree there is a bit of an unwanted lack of motivation from some in the squad in the 'smaller' game's. Like chalk and cheese watching us last week, Pittodrie, home to diets and then today, home to Morton first half etc..

    We should've went direct in behind them a bit more today..

    Wasn't good enough..

    As poor as we were if Tierney plays today we win that. Quality into the box was dire all game. Such a massive threat for us down that side, hugely important in our attacking success.

    lol we don't even do the sideways passing right thats what * me off the most

    if your gonna play that tactic its about creating space quickly, missing players out with the passes and you take their opposite man out aswell, get it wide quick enough and the wide man has the space and time to create something

    but we do it so * slow that by the time the ball gets to the other side the whole other team guys are over there waiting for it pmsl

    The players are * tired. The complete absence of our press which brought us so much joy last year and our unwilingness to be direct shows it. Easy to pass the ball side to side, retain possession and not exert yourself. End of.

    The biggest threat to our on going dominance is ourselves. Cliche to say that but there's alot of complacency creeping in across the board. Understandable sometimes when we can win games in 3rd gear but as a consequence when we need to up our level and go through the gears we can be found wanting.
