Whitecapjambo Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Back 3 doesn't work when teams don't press us. Fair play to Naismith for changing it. Great response from players. Thought Tait was excellent when he came on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’s just been dreadfully unlucky that the team haven’t given him many opportunities i.e. being 2 goals up in a game. Hopefully tonight. 👆 Kens a player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamboross Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 3 minutes ago, Japan Jambo said: mmm, hate to piss on his chips but he had one superb moment. It turned the tide of the game right enough, hopefully he kicks on. That seems harsh. I missed most of the first half so no idea how he played then but second half I thought he was excellent. The wee faint and super strike for the goal, mopping things up defensively and keeping things neat and tidy when building attacks. Really liked him and Tait together.

ScandinavianJambo Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 (edited) Great win, but I rather not go through that again 😆. Haven't clawed back a win from 2-0 at home since something like 2002! The best thing was that we are winning without Shankland being on the score sheet. I want him to start scoring again, and he will, but the rest of the team are taking their turns and contributing. Dexter added some real class clear MOM for me. 2nd half was much less predictable from the whole team with a lovely tempo/ opposite of the first half's pedestrian game. Hoff's shot was sublime and Oda produced some fine trickery, shutting me and the rest of us up. Lastly, welcome to the big boys Tait. You did well! What a night 😁 Edited January 23 by ScandinavianJambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've kinda fallen into the 352 thing. Interesting to see going forward, especially when Kye is back, what we do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie Jambo Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Absolute pish first half. That defence was shocking. Then for reasons being my imagination we win when good players get taken off. Couldn’t make it up. Shanks no more penalties. 3/3 missed. Dexter has a few mishaps first half but second he was brilliant. Oda goal was a cracker as was Dexters. My blood pressure tablets kicking in thank ****. Not the best game but I’ll take the win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Composed and looked to me to have Beni's knack for making space for himself. Impressive. Going to be difficult balancing playing time for Denholm, Pollock & Tait but hopefully see all 3 stake claims over the rest of the season. Annoyingly Denholm seems to be picking up silly wee injuries here and there. Hopefully nothing to worry about there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckies1874 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Tremendous win in the end after what was a dismal first half. So much more desire, energy and tempo in the 2nd half to get what was a deserved win. The 3pts are huge in putting a further gap between us and the others. Great chance on Saturday to almost finish Aberdeen off in their pursuit of 3rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polar opposite of what we’ve been served so far this season. Loved it when he was whipping the ball into feet then telling them where to pass it. Good feeling about him.

Gordon_1874 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 First and foremost it's great to get another 3 points. What was that first half all about, slow ponderous disjointed and a total lack of tempo/urgency. I reckon Naisy had a few choice words at half time and credit to him and the players for the 2nd half showing but we need to start games like how we played that 2nd half. Maybe more attacking players on the pitch from the off are required, I thought all of the subs played their part when they came on as well and well done to Neuwenhof who took a chance and had a pop at goal for getting us back in the game, we do need more of a goal threat from midfield.

Either way we're at least 5 points ahead even if they win them all which I'd probably have taken at the start of the season! Huge game for us against them.

LogicalEric Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Night and day performance in that 2nd half.

Rudy T Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Players deserve credit for that 2nd half, showed real character but I can’t help but think that’s a direct reflection of our manager. He had it as a player and I’m starting to really believe in him as a manager. Its easy to say the first half was shocking he got it wrong etc, but faced with a 2-0 half time deficit and 3 enforced changes he stays calm and does what’s required to get the win. He starts to get more of his own players and continues to change the mentality of the current crop and we could see something special from him. It was always going to take patience and blind faith but he’s producing the goods now. Even Saturday while not the best there’s was no panic at the end no launching 40 yard rockets into the box and hope for the best and tonight he could’ve easily shut up shop at 2-2 but he kept them at and made a change that won the game.
