Thought st johnstone had a decent go and got what they deserved. They had 43% possession, won 7 corners and quite a few goal attempts. Hardly 11 behind the ball. In fact, as I'm sure you'll recall at one point they had 11 men in front of the ball. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Celtc won't get away with kicking everything that moves in an OF game. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undoubtedly, which is why they receive more stick than others when we struggle. If you look at someone like Morelos, even if he's not scoring goals, his work rate and running are obvious and the support tend to cut him a bit more slack. I suspect many of us don't think Hagi or Aribo work as hard as Morelos, so when they're not producing their primary job; creating openings, then some feel they're not contributing anything. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being without one of our best defensive midfielders for so long hasn't helped and at times has definitely hindered. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They beat us but it wasnt as if in either instance they were better than us. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
