dunning1874 Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Muirhead keeping his place while Lyon is dropped after their respective performances last week is certainly an interesting decision. As is Blues starting ahead of McGrattan after Blues' last few performances and McGrattan's contribution from the bench last week.

Alibi Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Mcpherson is an idiot. Crazy selection. Especially with Oksanen missing.

Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Not quite sure how we'll line up with that team tbh. Also, no Allan in the squad at all, despite there being no injuries according to Gus yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedrodelawasp Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Had hoped one of Russell or Strapp would have been at RB with Ledger partnering Lithgow, but would seem it’s Strapp at CB. At least Killie don’t have a giant striker to contend with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chesh Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Strapp at CB with Ledger at RB is a sackable offence. What is he thinking?. Im making perfect sense, your just not keeping up.My Twitter - https://twitter.com/RJChesh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Rex Kramer Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 They're overrunning our left hand side time and time again. Should we make a tactical change Gus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nornirontons Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 The gap between the defence and midfield for the second was ridiculous!!! Was a 50/50 game for a long time but if your midfield are gonna leave your defence so exposed there only 1 result at any level of the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedrodelawasp Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Weren’t actually looking too terrible up until the first goal. Ugwu’s hold up play was good and Muirhead was even playing okay. Can’t see us getting back in to it now, though. Knowles looked in significant pain when he went down. Hopefully not a serious injury and fingers crossed it won’t be a long lay-off.

dunning1874 Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 4-4-2 with centre forwards out wide can work against shite like Dunfermline who won't do anything with the space that inevitably gives them. It can't against better teams like Kilmarnock who will find that space and exploit it, as shown by Oliver being nowhere for both of those goals. We actually looked alright at 0-0, but ever since they scored they've just overloaded our left hand side every time they've had the ball. This could turn into a pumping.

TaunTon Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Just when you think it can't get worse Reilly comes on. Not sure we can be more bereft of craft, vision or invention but having Muirhead, Blues and Reilly on the park at the same time is more than I can take. 2nd goal flatters Killie but you just knew it was likely. Big Gozie working hard to keep us in this but I fear it's a lost cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would strongly disagree with this part alone, as we actually created a few good opportunities through decent play going forward in the first half hour - Ugwu's header off the bar being the best chance. The problem is that the line-up is completely unbalanced and once Kilmarnock worked out where the weaknesses were at the back, they've taken control. We should not have had four forwards on the pitch to begin with. The site is supposed to be a place for the extended 'family' of Morton supporters - having an affinity with people that you don't know, because you share a love of your local football club. It's not supposed to be about point scoring and showing how 'clever' or 'funny' you are, or just being downright rude and offensive to people you don't know, because you can get away with it. Unfortunately, it seems the classic case of people who have little standing/presence in real life, use this forum as a way of making themselves feel as if they are something. It's sad, and I've said that before.. So, having been on Morton forums for about 15 years I guess, I've had enough... well done t*ssers, another Morton supporter driven away.

Yes it does, because they are still forwards with all the attributes of forwards, only shoehorned into terrible positions. You are Jim McInally, playing a 4-5-1 with Chris Templeman as a left winger, and I claim my ten pounds. There was also plenty of support for Ugwu in the first half hour. Shame we didn't give anywhere near as much support for Russell defensively as we might not have been murdered.

TaunTon Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 I seem to remember that forwards scored goals occasionally. I know it's only a minor attribute to you but nonetheless it does make a wee difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which third of the park is he expected to play in as a professional footballer? You can then answer the same questions for Muirhead, Knowles and Ugwu to conclude that yes, we were in fact playing four forwards in a Mike Bassett, 4-4-2 formation today.

The Bewilderedbeast Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 To be fair I thought to be 2-0 down at halftime was harsh on us. If Ugwu's header goes in then I think we take something from the game. Second half though was a different story. Without making out it's been hard luck every week, because it hasn't, we could be doing with the odd break here and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
