Nadroj Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Aberdeen are the worst team I have seen in a long time. Genuinely think they could be in trouble this year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_K_97 Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Expected nothing from this and thought a draw was probably a fair enough result. However, given the mount of heartbreak the Dons have caused us over the past decade, I'm especially delighted that we managed to grab a winner. What a hit from the Prestwick Pirlo! I sincerely hope the fella with the Arab Strap tickets went to the gig - I was so unenthused by the thought of watching this on a stream earlier on, I would have picked the gig too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 That was abysmal, absolutely abysmal. I rarely get properly angry at Aberdeen: win, lose or draw, I kind of try to retain the idea that it just isn't worth letting football completely dictate your mood. But tonight I was properly seething at that performance and Robson's utter negligence. It should have been crystal clear at half-time that the formation just wasn't working for us in this game. Kilmarnock were understandably content to isolate Gartenmann and Jensen with possession, and to sit in a low block. So, what was our response to this? It was a succession of square passes between the centre-backs and goalkeeper, followed by long punts over the top of Kilmarnock's deep defence at two centre-forwards seemingly being asked to play as target men, but who simply are not capable of playing that role. It was just absolutely mindnumbing to watch. So, what does Robson do at half-time to try and change things? Absolutely nothing. No shape change, no substitutions, no obvious changes in approach. It was the perfect chance to go to a back four, squeeze Watkins and Vassell up the pitch, and get Barron on to fill the glaring gap between the defence and midfield. But no. Nothing until the 75th minute or whatever it was. Just incompetent, desperate stuff. Kilmarnock probably didn't deserve to win the game, but we definitely deserved to lose it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flammable sheep Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 @DrewDon that could be a description of the first game of the season vs Livi. Nothing has changed, it went exactly the same way. Only this time we couldn't even keep a clean sheet 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thenorthernlight Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 As utterly pish as we were, we should’ve been playing against 10 men for the entire game. Again, VAR screwing us over. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you mean the Watkins ‘elbow’ in the first 5 seconds, that was a complete non-incident. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No manager comes back from 6 wins in 24, & ONE win at home all season, all the while playing prehistoric long ball guff…. Surely? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what Watkins was thinking about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
