Your last paragraph is interesting. Up until a week ago pretty sure most of us were saying we were a team full of shit. Just posted it, a win Saturday would be massive. Confidence and positivity going into the international break where we can recover from three away games plus do some training. We did as needed in the league cup group stage, then you can’t argue it was a tough run of games to start the league. Now a more favorable run, some wins, team now familiar with each other, maybe it’s not so bad? Then again, we’re equally capable of shitting the bed Saturday. Big game.

Didn’t see the game, just watched the highlights. Some lovely goals, and I can’t help feel for molloy in particular, plus Ronan, great for their confidence. Mouloua clearly doesn’t lack confidence, excellent goal, and interesting he runs straight to Robinson for the big hug. Would love to see him start alongside nisbet. Not the pace or physicality of olusanya, but certainly strong and speedy, and far superior skill level (not hard I know). I think he’s a legit player and scorer now he’s fit. How was Marshall? Is tonight, with the exception of mouloua for olusanya, and maybe happe for molloy, our best 11? I certainly think 3-5-2 is the way forward. Saturday is huge against a team with 6 consecutive home losses. A win would finish a massive week for Robinson, and us, and send us to the break with form and confidence. then we return to two very winnable home games, crappy united away, and falkirk at home to finish the month. Things could look a lot different by that point. But we certainly are far from a good, consistent, or predictable side.

Our system and formation was the perfect antidote to Motherwell's attempts to pass through us. The way we pressed them at times; the two front men, and Marshall and Ronan behind them - was exceptional and didn't allow Motherwell to play. They got a bit of joy for a period in the first half when it was still 0-0 when I thought Aremu was playing too deep and offering up too much space for them to play, and they were also targeting Molloy and Guinness-Walker and getting in behind regularly by overloading on that side. However, what was impressive was how quickly we sorted it out. Ronan was excellent, but I think Knoester pushed him close for man of the match, and actually I'll accept I was wrong to say he'd be better on the left. The way he linked everything in the middle was outstanding. As @Jormungandr pointed out, Guinness-Walker at times was centre midfield while Cadden was hitting the byline. Motherwell didn't know what to do. And as @The.Moog said, when we got the ball down and played we are a far better side. Played the long ball at the right moments (Ronan's pass for Mouloua's goal for example) but we have players capable of playing in wee triangles and pulling players out of position. During the day I saw on X someone posting a video of us beating Motherwell at Pittodrie two years ago, and the caption was saying our team is night and day compared to then. Have to say, some of us (including me) have underestimated how good some of our players are.

To be fair, I was going to post the possession stats. It's not a negative. It just shows how little Motherwell were allowed to create against our shape despite 60-70% possession, and how clinical Aberdeen were.

I got the team scoring 4 wrong lol

Well, that was fun! What a ping from Molloy, pool league restarted this week and I was watching it on my phone..... Got a few odd looks when I celebrated that one go in! Delighted for all involved after that, we earned a shot in the arm on Saturday and boy have we capitalised on it. Best thing is it's completely deserved (well, maybe not 4 but the moment the second went in it was effectively over), we just kept growing into the game and held Motherwell at arms length with ease for the vast majority of the game I would say that it did look a wee bit one of those nights where everything goes wrong for you for well but it made little difference to the result. Onto Easter Road and maybe we can redeem ourselves from last season and finish the job of getting gray the sack.

Rock solid at the back. 31% possession and never looking troubled. 4 shots on target/4 goals. Clinical. 👏 Stephen Robinson and team

I thought the result was a lie When I saw it reported on Sky But we pumped the Well I know, bloody hell We're winning the league now, oh aye

That was brilliant tonight. First away win in 2026 and if I heard correctly, biggest win vs Motherwell at Fir Park since back in the 1983-84. Same again on Saturday please!

Greeting faced cunt at the best of times. Did he mention his Tennents Sixes medal 🤔

The Rat-Munchers dominate possession, but their striking skills called into question. Nae chance o' them scorin' Whilst the Dandies knock 4 in. Great goals but Mouloua's the best yin.

Well, aye. (No pun intended).

Aberdeen, Falkirk, Killie. Nobody's coupon is surviving that. Sportscene to be making a rare appearance on my telly tonight. ...postponing those games really worked out well for the European representatives 😄

Really noticeable how flexible we were, in particular Milne as the RCB getting out wide, and Guiness-Walker as the LB getting inside. A bit of asymmetry there, very effective. We always seemed to have numbers in the right areas. I'm extremely impressed by that tonight.

Just reading the "live reporting" on the bbc fitba page and they have posted the possession stats, who would have thought...

Now listening to Sportsound and had the joy of hearing Alan Preston greetin🤣🤣

I have been quick to criticise, so only fair some credit is given for that tonight It's a start BUT can we follow it up on Saturday at Easter Road ? Team was well organised and grew into the game. Once we got the second, there was only going to be one winner out there

It must have been down to you starting the match thread...

What the hell just happened?

Fantastic performance tonight, played like a proper football team. Olusanya set the tone by chasing down everything, and keeping us in it at times, and they started to get a little edgy passing it out. Then we got the press sorted and there was only one winner. Well done Robinson, really well organised, and finally seems to have got the midfield setup right. Not just the starting setup, but the two subs slotting in perfectly in their roles too. The back three is perfect for us, with Knoester rock solid (he really seems to be bigger and stronger this season). Again, the two defenders coming in and doing fine. Mouloua coming on was excellent, I really love him. Nisbet excellent the whole game and deserved his goal. Ronan possibly man of the match for me though, he was brilliant tonight. Covered so much ground, and used the ball really well. That three, with him and Marshall higher up works really well. I'd prefer Briedl, but Aremu did well. Fantastic result.

Lottery numbers for i morn?

Who saw this coming? The project is back on…

How the hell did that happen?

Told you it would be 4-0 😂
