heynow2005 Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 Burke, jones and power were outstanding. Thought on any other day Stewart and Brophy would have scored more but pleased with the performance and result 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killiepie Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 Jones outstanding? Though he was pretty poor today considering the amount of ball and space he had. Final ball was horrendous today. -18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbs Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 Strange game ... we were in control of the first half yet could have been 3-1 down at half-time. Quick start to the second half saw us scramble an early goal and put all the pressure on them to chase the equaliser. Game opened up and with Jones running riot we looked like scoring every time we went up the park. Everyone done their bit today and it was a well earned 3pts from a difficult match. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decision making still pretty bad but does cause defences problems. Should have had a penalty but stayed on his feet, so didn't get it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His left foot cross was brilliant in second half, unfortunately nobody had read it to gamble as he so often cuts back. Feel like he should of had more shots rather than running into trouble but he has been shooting a lot less recently, possibly been told not to?...he had a good game overall. Always looks dangerous, even if it never came off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C4mmy31 Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 Killie maintained our 100% home league record in December and returned to the top of the Premiership table with a 3-1 victory over Dundee. Goals from Kirk Broadfoot, Greg Stewart and an own goal from Genseric Kusunga ensured Killie bounced back from last weekend's loss at Celtic Park. Broadfoot was one of three changes to Steve Clarke's starting XI with Chris Burke and Eamonn Brophy also restored to the starting XI. Jordan Jones played as though he had a point to prove against the Dark Blues, giving Cammy Kerr a torrid afternoon with a terrific display of wing play. The Northern Ireland international fashioned a fine chance only to see Jack Hamilton pull off a good save. Dundee arrived in Ayrshire on a run of four games without defeat and they created chances in an open first half with Kenny Miller going close before Stephen O'Donnell's clearance looped over the bar as the home side suffered a scare. Greg Stewart was on form against his old team but he was denied after being played clean through on goal by Gary Dicker on the half hour mark. Stewart tried to give Jack Hamilton the eyes but the Dundee keeper stood strong to save. The home side remained patient into the early stages of the second half and they were rewarded as Kirk Broadfoot prodded the ball home from a corner to make the all-important breakthrough. Killie's number five showed great determination to get to the ball first and his sheer will helped it roll into the net under close attention of the opposition. It was 2-0 after 65 minutes as Eamonn Brophy's teasing cross from the right was touched into his own net by Kusunga to leave Hamilton helpless. The cushion led to some more free-flowing football for Killie as Jones, Stewart and O'Donnell started to find pockets of space with Dundee chasing the game. And the third goal duly arrived as Andy Boyle was caught napping on the ball and Chris Burke stepped in before squaring for Stewart to get the goal his display deserved. Kenny Miller netted a consolation goal in injury-time but it couldn't spoil Killie's day in horrible conditions at Rugby Park as the boys in Blue and White went back to the top of the pile. Kilmarnock: Bachmann; O'Donnell, Broadfoot, Findlay, Taylor; Power, Dicker, Jones, Burke (Kiltie), Stewart, Brophy (Ndjoli) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barneyboy Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 Chuffed for big Kirk, got his goal and the way he celebrated the third goal was brilliant, fist pumping all the way Infront of the FB stand. Had my doubts when we signed him but the guy is awesome and you can see what playing for Killie means to him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktid1869 Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 I thought everyone was superb today but Power and Burke were different class. The work they put in is amazing! Top of the league again, c'mon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All about opinions I suppose , but does seem JJ is too often criticised on here just for the sake of it.........yes his final ball quality is inconsistent but his pace and ability to stretch the opposition often creates space for other players as well as taking pressure off our back line BTW after the game SC said Jones had another terrific performance today .....

Be a huge loss when he goes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdevoy Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 After a bit of a less than convincing 1st half we never looked back after we got the goal and it could have been 6. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caldow Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 Although we had loads of play and chances I don’t think SC will miss telling the players we massively rode our luck when caught out at the back (except at the end when we lost a very poor goal). Luckily Dundee were pish. We’re still gonnae win the league but. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbk Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 Maybe we won't win the league but a top three place is definitely a target and as for JJ I thought he was a lot better today and I agree we will miss him when/ if he goes and what can you say about our two golden oldies Chris Burke and Kirk Broadfoot they are brilliant but so are Power , Dicker,SOD, Stewart,Brophy,Findlay,Taylor,in fact we really are a good team with an outstanding management team happy days!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garnkirk20 Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 There is no doubt JJ running at defenders causes a lot of problems to the opposition. However when you look at the highlights of the 2nd half he didn't make a single final ball pass which reached a Killie player. It's the aspect of his game he needs to be improving. He would be wise to look at the way Burkey is able to use the ball highlighted by his pass to Stewart for the 3rd goal. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
