There's no end product. But that could also be aimed at every Aberdeen player yesterday. Can't get over the amount of times we hit the first man at set pieces or with crosses. I really hope Robson gets the backing he needs for this squad because we are so short of quality in certain areas. Yes injuries have impaced the centre half area but there's still a lot of work to do. Hopefully. Morris was poor yesterday but the 2 I was most disappointed in yesterday were Duk and Clarkson. I expect much better from those 2. Was surprised by how well MacKenzie handled Nouble. I really want to see Livingston relegated but sadly their big physical side will survive with a bit to spare 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another day Dante(i thought he did ok generally) doesn't f**k up that pass or Duk takes one of his chances and we walk out of that pit of plastic with a W. I'll refrain from jumping on the panic bus until our business is done and after at least the second third game of the season. Instantly forgettable game to everyone on the planet bar these livi lads who somehow managed to enjoy the game, fair play to them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could see in the 2nd half when he was defending corners he wasn't best pleased. He was right in front of me. Duk certainly looks like he's carrying extra timber. Needs to shift that pronto. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTG_03 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Robson staying that "on another day we win that game 2 0" in his post match interview is the most concerning part of Saturday's loss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it was a poor game, it was an early away draw. There is a long season ahead and still time to balance the squad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just sticking up for his squad there I think. If he's coming away with that after 11 games and we're well off the pace then that'll be justified concern. He's got this McInnesness about him that "you have to earn the right to play football". The problem with that is that if you don't get things right, you can easily spend the whole season without actually playing football. That's going to be the more likely scenario unless we sort out the defence and wide areas rapidly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarleyQuinn Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Aberdeen and Dundee are both keen to snap up Crystal Palace starlet Killian Phillips, but he will need to pen a new deal before being loaned, according to journalist Alan Nixon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd obviously pick you guys over us but a 22 year old CM captain of an EPL 2 side is pretty much what Dundee are screaming out for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingjoey Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 23 hours ago, HarleyQuinn said: I would have preferred to have seen Sokler (despite being a striker) or Vinny play ahead of him. Morris is struggling to perform at this level. Robson leaving his Subs until the remaining 10-15 mins was frustrating. Straight out the McInnes' textbook. So many people obsessed with Derek McInnes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we have a smaller tether rhan significantly weaker squad one that’s also unbalanced. ComplaininG about lick of signings, May be completely outwits out control with prospective targets relying on their clubs finding replacements? Also Glass $ Goodwin are gone so that’s a pluss Did you get your "rs" and "ts" transposed, Rn? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarleyQuinn Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 If by some miracle we qualify for the Europa league group stages and finish 3rd in the table. We'd then drop into the conference league last 16. https://groundhopperguides.com/the-2023-24-uefa-europa-conference-league-schedule/#:~:text=This round consists of a,year Aston Villa%2C will join.
