I’ll add a more detailed post sometime but interesting first season for him. We clearly had a style of play early season, hit an attacking central player who was able to hold the ball up while the wide guys pushed on, then move the ball forward. Plenty of nice counters early doors. then teams figured us out and no plan B. What did JT do from there? That’s my big disappointment, since then jTs team had no positive identity. Yea it’s clear we like to play possession, but we were pretty poor in the final third or breaking teams down, and we had plenty of time to work on that. We went to shit pretty much after everyone played us and teams adapted. Not only do we not create, today’s a day we started well yet don’t get a second and push on. Even two up we tend to fall out of it. Zero killer instinct from this team and I wonder if that’s JTs style and demeanor. Need to bully punch kick etc.

Season can’t end soon enough, and we’re in a cup final. Feel free to correct me, but since the st mirren away game when we lost our winning run, we’ve been pretty shit. A few good wins but curious to know the league points from that point on (not just us, but standings from then.) excited to get players in, but we have to get players out. We have a bloated squad that isn’t good enough, Thelin has seen enough to know who is good enough. I’m equally excited to see a player leave compared to one come in. What’s the deal with sivert? What’s the injury? Curious if we’ll try to punt him despite the 3 year deal. Both he and shinnie will be 34 soon and don’t have the legs for center mid for a full season. Shinnie has been decent at left back but has clearly been exposed at times. roll on the summer rebuild part 2.

Not excusing, just trying to understand what happened. Did we go to fight/pitch invasion or was it them, that’s my question, just trying to understand the idiocy.

So united pitch invasion invites this reaction , or did a section of our fans just go nuts?? From what I am reading jack’s hit by an object/chair thrown by one of us, but who is on the pitch?

Would be nice! Illegal to catch them, kill them, or feed them i believe. Basically you have to wait until they eat your dog or kid before you can approach them. We asked for someone to take it away since it’s close to my house and I have a pool. Don’t want my kids jumping in to find him at the bottom! They won’t do anything until it ‘threatens’ us.

Tree in my back yard, but if you zoom in behind you’ll see my new neighbor, arrived about a month ago. Apparently they grow about a foot every year.

I brought him up about 25 mins in as he was a big physical loon who was involved and had just had a decent shot on goal. I said he’s a good squad player to have, much like Morris. He offers something off the bench was my point. Don’t think anyone said he was good!

Was he outcoached? How? I saw united in the second half try harder. They scored two that came from wide play if I recall, penalty a result of us not clearing a cross (I could be wrong!) they were better in the second half and wanted it more, simple as that if you ask me.

Every season, regardless of our situation, we are competing for third. The only difference this year is rangers are shite and 2nd was possible. bigger picture, year one of a three year project, not bad. Could it have been better and am I disappointed, absolutely. scottish football is a battle much of the time and we are no where near close to having a team who has the mental and physical capabilities to win a fight. Last four games really give a good case for where we are as all games meant something. Very optimistic finish to last season, close to total opposite this season, and a cup final that could be awful next week. Winning next week would be amazing, but that still doesn’t hide the fact we are a seriously flawed team, and that includes the management team. still totally behind JT but questions are certainly being asked. Last four games showed a lot of what we have deep down, and that’s concerning.

Tells you we are desperate, and the lack of ability in the squad, on come Dabbagh and Ambrose. 5th, a cup final, and Europe. Decent season. Not looking forward to next week. Have a good weekend everyone.

2-1 them. Based on recent play game is over. Shame, it was good for 30 mins.

McGrath okkels and gueye off please, topi polvara and morris needed. penalty utd.

Nisbet scores a second and it’s a different game, instead 1-1. After 30 mins the game changed and we didn’t adapt.

And 1-1, momentum all them.

The spark/liveliness has gone. Pretty much all utd now. Subs needed.

Utd will score from a cross, giving them too many ffs.

Nisbet has to score! Good play from Clarkson.

Gueye just can’t keep the ball!!!! Sub!

OOft. Should be 1-1.

Following up on my own gueye comment, he’s been shit the last 15 and a liability, can’t keep the ball, complains, the odd foul etc. much like Morris, why him coming off the bench is prob better. clarkson and palaversa are our best central midfield combo, both a tidy first half. Need that 10 ahead of them who can get on the ball. No reason to sub yet, but Morris for McGrath and dabbagh for gueye allowing nisbet to drop is prob our best option. I’d still prefer polvara to take the 10 behind nisbet but JT doesn’t like that and hasn’t tried it. Topi for okkels as JT likes to freshen up the wingers.

Agree, much of his responsibility is cutting inside and letting Jensen push on. don’t agree with Gordon, while the first 30-35 were good we’ve allowed utd to come back into it. We also look poor from throws and crosses as usual, they haven’t scored but they are getting their heads on it and at this rate a goal will come if we don’t win those duels.

Not sure why McGrath is playing, has he touched the ball yet??

Enjoyable game so far. Gueye proving why he’s worth keeping in the squad. He can be pretty good or crap, hit or miss. But he has pace strength skill and can create his own, plus is solid in the air. He’s not been great today, but he makes them think.

Credit to Jensen on the goal, could have easily smashed it but simple cross to okkels.

Very good start from us but every corner, cross, and long throw I expect them to score
