I despise rangers with a passion. But for some reason Celtic not so much. Maybe dislike hearts more than Celtic. Interesting 3 team race, tighter after today. Really want a hearts crumble like 1986.

And Milne? Cup game, I know he has one more game but is that league?

Caught a glimpse of leven post match. Said afeez was struggling w fitness/cramp. Got better as the game went on and agree, played his position, but we didn’t see the physical player we’ve heard about. geiger looks a more composed passer who will dictate play, aouchiche was more a 10 to me. I liked what I saw, he crawled up too but w games he may come good. agree, thought the keeper was good, calmer an less eratic than mitov perhaps. another game with very little width/wingers, which hurts us big time. If not lobban, I’d rather see bilalovic again, worked against livi. Frame didn’t push on much but that’s a tough ask for a new player in a new defense in a team w no confidence.

I will add a positive spin though, as mentioned before, def like a preseason game and we were not totally outplayed by one of the better teams in the league. Need games to gel, one down. Certainly a better performance than killie, and on a good day we get breaks in front of goal. Could have been a little fortunate and taken something today. we didn’t look as ropey/vulnerable from corners or free kicks. Thought we were better in the air. Their first goal could have been better defended, space between Jensen and Morrison exploited, plus no help defensively on the right from olusaygna. Second goal, we’re three at the back, stretched, and chasing the game. As mentioned, good learning experience in prep for the cup game. Geiger looked decent, hoping he just tired. Afeez gave little, certainly hope it’s not a sign of things to come. He did get better as the half went on I suppose. id say we’d benefit from shinnie in there, leadership and care. Maybe those three moving forward? How long is he suspended? We clearly don’t have a right mid, and we played one of the best left backs in the league. Today showed what’s not an option, and neither milanovic or bilalovic are the solution. I’d go with lobban there as a short term solution. If that’s what lazetic now offers, hope we don’t see him again.

Not totally judging, games cancelled, training effected, and a bunch of new players. Away to the leagues form team for the most part in shit conditions. Thought the keeper did nothing wrong, spilled a couple but possibly the conditions didn’t help. Morrison, not impressed, although didn’t stand out as a negative today. Milne def gets his place back. McIntyre did ok and better than molloy, plus won headers. Afeez did nothing. Disappointing debut. Geiger was prob the best of the new players, nothing fancy but a solid experienced pro in there, couple of nice passes. olusayna, out of position, can’t play right mid. Did little defensively which hurt us. I’d be tempted to play a combo of lobban Jensen and devlin at right back right mid for the rest of the season. Cameron was disappointing, no better than Armstrong today. special mention for lazetic, worst I’ve seen him. Shocking.

Harsh. Thought he did ok. fair result, we didn’t get the breaks when we had chances, could have gotten something. They are a decent side, one home loss in a year and very strong run at present. Thought we really helped them with their right ride, hardly defended it all game.

Debut goal for McIntyre. A little unfair, Morrison up top and stretched at the back. prob best performance we could have expected. Certainly not as bad as killie but we need to take our chances. Zero confidence.

Red tinted specs there. Cant remember a proper foul by Motherwell. Can’t argue with most if not all of ours.

What has happened to lazetic. Shocker of a performance so far. I wouldn’t say anyone has been bad, except him.

Hope it’s just cramp. Decent debut.

Lazetic looks totally off it so far. As sharp as nisbet appeared to be, he’s the opposite.

Bookings adding up, not so sure we finish with 11. could easily lose a second but could be 1-1. Not out this yet.

Strange subs, would have yanked Cameron and olusanya.

No clue why Jensen plays over devlin. I’d make that sub. Give us some legs on the right, other than the one run first half haven’t seen Jensen attack. Ever. intense a second unfortunately. They are missing chances. id pull Cameron for lazetic, nisbet deeper. Give the guy a run.

But disjointed right now, no fluidity to our play and scrappy defensively. Need a foot on the ball.
