Stevie g sayin about the mental strain our players are under after European games. Hm. Porto, Motherwell then Ross county. Not like Ronaldo at Madrid v psg then barcelona. our players must be delicate. Bollks. Full strength against all teams. europe or no. our players need to toughen up. don't remember Albertz, Gough, coisty or amoruso whinin.100.% in every game and we're on the way.

The tinkering nearly cost us yesterday. Couldn't agree more rossco, if they don't have the mentality then they shouldn't be here. ðŸ‘.

We had our fair share of bad performances after European games with albertz, Gough, mccoisty and amourso though didn't we?

Just stating the obvious but we can’t afford players of the standard you have mentioned and we could not attract them to our league any more.
At least not if we want to avoid a repeat of our financial meltdown.
Time to get real.

Agreed, slight tweak maybe but 4 is a significant change that almost killed our momentum. Start your best team and kill off the opposition then bring on your back up players not the other way round. Small pitch requires good technicians that can pass fast and accurate through the 10 man block.
Aribo needs to step up 2 or 3 levels if he starts. He doesn't seem to suit the left midfield role in a 433, always seems a bit apprehensive and scared to make a mistake and in the end plays safe. Wonder if he would suit the left of the 3 in a 4231 more where he has a bit more protection behind.

A lot of people knocking Aribo the past two weeks . The boy is just coming back from a horrific head injury . Your saying he’s a bit apprehensive? No blinking wonder ., give him a couple of weeks to get his mojo back eh? ðŸ‘.

I kinda disagree with most, our squad was built bigger to help the team cope with the amount of games we need to play.
Its a double edged sword really, you want your best players for every game but we need to think about the bigger picture its a long season and good players could get tired and more susceptible to injury in the long term which you want to avoid especially if we are in contention.
The players that we are able to rotate to are good players and should be coming in and using these games as an opportunity to move into being first pick.
We can't moan as other teams are in the same boat, help from SFA is welcome but we have a big squad because we have these games remember. Two for every position.

It's true mrgrumpy, sometimes we did struggle in the past after a Euro match. Remember big Amo getting pelters for a couple of mistakes during matches.

To be honest mols I don't think aribo had his mojo before he got injured. ðŸ‘.
