SPFL Motherwell V Celtic Sunday February 25th kick off 12PM Sky Sports Football

Thank * for the 3 points but can we come out and smash someone without 80 minutes of heart failure

 

It's only 11 games. We can polish it in the summer

 

* cowboy

 

Delighted with the fight shown at the end. Have to show that in every league game until the end of the season. Do that and we have a chance.

 

Any highlights? Missed the 2nd half fs

 

Crucial win today.

Idah is now the main man, kyogo has to wait his turn now.

The scales experiment has to come to an end, teams are desperate for him to be on the ball and we can see why. Nawrocki and CCV much more progressive with the ball.

Yang and one other of Palma or Maeda until the end of season, Khun isn’t up to it. Iwata has to start and get a run of games, he did well today.

11 games, 11 wins support need to behind the team regardless of performance. It’s all about winning now.

 

This will either be a defining moment in the league where we kick on or it'll be just kicking the can down the road.

We've kicked plenty of cans this season.

 

Just saying this again but I don’t get why people are saying things like, “Idah must replace Kyogo now”.

Kyogo was the main man in the last two games and single-handedly won the penalty to win the game before - coming on as a sub in a game we were losing if I remember.

Idah’s came on today and been brilliant, but if he starts the game it might be totally different.

It’s about using the squad and looking at each game. It feels like every time I come on here there’s a new villain and hero that needs dropped and started.

 

Yes they are part of the team and everyone can be used in the games . If idah starts or kyogo starts as long as they do the business it helps the team.

 

That felt like a huge win but then so did the Hibs game. We simply have to kick on now or the league will be lost. Some of the individual performances are very concerning, Kuhn looks like he has never played football before, Maeda's output has been shockingly bad, Kyogo looks miles off it, Nawrocki gives me the fear, McGregor looks knackered, Scales honest but limited.

But we won and at this stage that is all that matters. 4 crucial goals from Idah so fair play to him- as an Ireland fan I have been very critical of him but huge goals for us. We need to find form somewhere over this next month and either be within touching distance or ahead of Sevco when we go to the Bigot dome.

 

I hope that second half performance and result spurs us on, but we've had similar results and performances and haven kicked on after that.

It is a real concern that our players can either fail to turn up before a halftime grilling, or drop out of games they dominated. We've not had many 90 minute performances this season.

Even when we beat them 2-1 we were cruising before letting our game slip.

I think that CCV is going to make the biggest difference.

 

iwata was brilliant totally controlled the tempo of the game ,just as well because mcgregor was brutal today ,fair play to idah another 2 huge goals .thought we were far better today even though still need more quality in the final third .while it wasnt as convincing as i would have liked ,think we showed we aint giving up without a fight .kuhn 5 and a half year deal may rival the one given to mccarthy

 

I know I said any win will do but that was a hard watch. Its so remiscent of the Covid season it's scary

 

Teams are onto McGregor, he's out playmaker...it's up to the other players like O'riley to step up and help him out.

His form has been poor recently.

 

he attempted a couple of tackles in the first half that were * shocking ,all the football he has played is maybe catching up with him ,cant see him being rested though

 

Probably all the team is feeling tired. When you aren't playing well and know it, it obviously must make you feel uptight ,anxious so maybe no flow to your game . I think the team needed this today, going behind and they could have folded but I think they dug deep within themselves and thought * it we are champions and we can * play. Let's do this. This maybe the game that kicks us on to better football now. I hope.

 

Watching the highlights.

Motherwell got in behind far too easily in the first half. Embarrassingly easily.

I've had to mute. Mark Wilson and Liam Macleod are dreadful.

 

Good to see I wasn't the only one.

The relief at that stage.

 

Dan Casey should have been sent off for that challenge on Kuhn. Two feet off the ground. Foot over the ball. Did VAR check it?
