accies1874 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Aberdeen yup, think it was the 07/08 season Super Jimmy calderwood ,actually made it through the group stage and impressed at pittodrie against Bayern Munich if I remember rightly I remember that season, but couldn't remember if they were the last Scottish team. They drew 2-2 with Bayern at Pittodrie, then got pumped in Munich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had Celtic fans disgracing their club at Sunderland and now this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider99 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Genuine fucking embarrasment, regardless of what people are criticised for discrediting 'the state of scottish football', losing to that shower really shows something needs to change in our game!

McInnes needs to shoulder a lot of blame here, what were the tactics supposed to be? The defence was far too deep leaving huge spaces in the middle third which left shinnie and Christie chasing shadows and using up energy. Stockley up top to try and hold the ball up. It was blatantly obvious the team needed to be 20 yards higher up the park yet nothing was done. Mackey Steven needs to learn the offside rule for when he's defending. Reynolds needs dropped, McLean too. Joe Lewis distribution was pish. Pass marks for shinnie, Christie, Wright and Maynard. Tactically we were very nearly made to pay in the first game against Siroki with huge gaps behind our full backs; I figured we had fixed that but I agree with you, we got it awfully wrong again tonight...everyone being completely shite didn't help either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said the same after the 2nd leg in Bosnia. You can't play in Europe with a full-back who, fundamentally, isn't actually very good at football. His only option in possession was to hoof it away time and time again. Andy Considine looks like he's playing with his boots on the wrong feet. Guys like him stealing a wage is the biggest part of reason Scottish teams are pish in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the talent and technique you could want, but he hardly ever puts his stamp on a game. You can get away with that playing as a no. 10, but not in central midfield. We missed Ryan Jack tonight. Someone who will sit in front of the back 4, not do anything flashy but just keep play ticking over. Hopefully Maynard showing he could hold the ball up effectively will make Stockley obsolete.

As a centre half he's reasonable enough on the ball (at least by Scottish standards), but at full-back his lack of technique and pace gets exposed whenever we play you lot or in Europe.

McInnes recognised it but all he did was swap Christie and Stewart as Christie would track back more, all this achieved was nullifying Christie. We need a striker, a centre back and a left back. Considine wasn't the worst tonight but he's slower than a week in the jail, use him at centre back in the league but not at left back in Europe.If the team were braver and played 20 yards higher we would have won more 2nd balks and pressed them into mistakes. To not test the keeper until the 95th minute is disgraceful. For all their diving, cheating, time wasting and flare throwing they were the better team but only because we played so badly and got our tactics way off.
