Pasquale for King Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Horrible evening, good win, tried to play football, Partick played well, Wighton showed something at last, Clare did well but missed a sitter, Ben&Jake need to practice crossing, Uche good again,Madden is awful.

That won't happen if the fans keep booing misplaced passes though. I don't understand why we have everyone in the box defending corners though. We need an outball imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get behind your team ffs Agreed. Partick fans were singing 'this is a library' and I had to agree for the first while. Fair enough we were playing shite but it doesn't help if folk are just sitting there moaning and not getting behind the team. Crowd was better second half though. ****ing buzzing to get to Hampden though and thought we played really well at points!

We need to kill teams off again though. Pretty much my take on it. We really didn't look up for it in awful conditions until they scored. We then started playing and, other than the usual everyone back for corners I always felt we were trying to score the third and kill the tie. We've played much worse this season. All about getting through and we did. Less huge punts. Some very good runs from Mulraney and Clare and strong in defence after that poor goal.

Mulraney did a wee turn in front of us in section E,brilliant. Couple of other wee flicks and won the penalty. Final ball inconsistent but did really well I thought. Looks up before crossing unlike Morrison who still seems to take the wrong option more often than not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Typical cup tie in very difficult conditions and a wins a win. But if we play like that against a decent team on a big pitch we will get murdered. Uche still hasn't grasped the games about passing. Wighton linked well and Mulraney and Clare are starting to look much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clerry Jambo Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I must admit this everyone back for corners does my nut in. It just allows more pressure as the ball is coming straight back. Not sure if this is the gaffers instructions or something our array of coaches have come up with but wish they would just abandon it.

Levein must’ve been rubbing his boaby over the thought of so many players attacking and defending a corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corners as well - we should have someone lying deep at the back post. The amount of times it goes over everyone's head and there is no Hearts player to get to the loose ball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1953 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Why , oh why, when we have the chance to put a cross into the box do we over hit it, Mulrainey and Morrison were both guilty of that last night. You'd think that a professional footballer playing at home, would know how hard to kick the ball to get it into the goalmouth. Rant over, delighted to have won last night and move on to the semi final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the reasoning is clear but i see other teams leaving players up and it has the effect of taking opposition players out of the box and making it easier to defend a less-crowded box.

Thistle left two up when defending corners and our defenders appeared unsure about how to deal with it... Levein has always pulled everyone back at corners. His reasoning is that the first priority is to prevent a goal from being conceded. I'm not sure how successful we are at that statistically speaking. I think the idea is to have three pacy players ready to break quickly from the edge of the box (last night it was Uche, Mulraney, and Wighton) . That part of the strategy certainly doesn't seem to be working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
