Do you want to meet Deano so you have someone with the same mental age to converse with?

[King Street Loon]

[OddJob]

Aye? Did i post a picture of myself on here before or have you seen me at Pittodrie?

[Foster14]

Ironically it turns it's only the St Johnstone game I've missed this season, so I get the last laugh

 

And you didn't make it tonight, but made the Greenock game in the earlier round?

 

Games in attendance (normal time) - 6 draws and a defeat

 

Games not in attendance - 2 wins

 

In the politest way possible, maybe you should nae fucking bother...

[vanderark14]

think there was a photo of you in the mods forum.

[Tord31]

roll on Saturday....McGinn and Vernon on from the start = hope

[OddJob]

think there was a photo of you in the mods forum.

Ah i think i know what one it was, horrendous photo

[Jute]

You'll be surprised, he'll go into it with with zero expectations, therefore he'll enjoy it more than you think, he'll still say it's shite though.

 

I'm out for this one, is it ESPN?

 

Yes. Programme starts at 11:30.

 

Will be there but already only going because I have a season ticket and not because of football we are playing.

Like the look of that team.

 

I imagine McGinn will play in place of Smith, however.

[RUL]

Considine won't be dropped

[tup]

I've only ever sat in the RDS lower once.

 

Against Torino, and I got fucking soaked to the skin.

 

Never again.

Surprised you didn't bring your umbrella.

 

 

You strike me as the type that'd bring out a brolly at the football.

[vanderark14]

Brown needs to make a decision on who plays as the centre back pairing.

 

Anderson and Considine should not be at RB or LB

No, that's RTYD you're thinking of.

[vanderark14]

Agree re Anderson although he played alright there earlier in the season.

 

I don't like Considine at LB either but if Naysmith is injured and Robertson is just coming back then unless you want three dedicated LBs in the squad on our budget then we've got little choice.

 

Robertson at LB

 

two CB's from Reynolds, Considine and Anderson

 

Jack or Ozzie at RB

[vanderark14]

And if Robertson comes off or lacks the fitness to last the 90?

 

then we have no choice. not exactly sure what your point is bri

 

at the moment Robertson is back so the choice has to be made on who plays.

[fine-n-dandy]

It's way too attacking for Brown (& maybe a littel light in midfield) but I'd like to see us set up with something like this to see if it'd work.

 

.....................................Clangers.........................................

Magennis (or other) Anderson,Reynolds,Considine(orRobertson)

 

Fraser..........................Osbourne........................Hayes (Fraser & Hayes can switch about at will)

................Smith.............................McGinn.........(these pair can also chop & change)

 

 

.....................................Vernon......................................

 

 

Ok Osbourne would have a hell of a task in midfield but if their was good understanding/planning between the others as far as covering him when others are in more advanced positions, it could work

 

One things sure, it'd be a hell of a hard team to defend against. Fast, interchanging/mobile & very tiring to keep track of.

 

Would be a little dodgey/weak from a defensive mid point of view yes but I want to see some exciting stuff.

 

But Brown would never go for it Maybe arange some bounce games to test out his more attacking side (just to see if he has one)

[fine-n-dandy]

That's one of the most mental posts I've ever read, seriously.

 

 

Yeah a very attacking type formation is just crazy for Brown & Aberdeen.

 

 

I know it's weak in middle but it would rely on players understanding who's covering up so as to always have support in middle with Osbourne.

 

But going forward, it'd be outstanding for Aberdeen.

 

Be like Real Madrid of old (on a smaller budget)

[RUL]

You want osbourne to play centre mid on his own?

[fine-n-dandy]

You want osbourne to play centre mid on his own?

 

 

No, It's basically (however you want to see it) a 3 or 5 man midfield, just that it's a more attacking minded midfield rather than the defensive/sitting mid with two wingers that Brown favors.

 

It's still a 4-3-3 or 4-5-1 depending on how they play it & who's in possession.

 

Osbourne is the only one that will be sitting in, where as the rest can play accordingly but more in favor of breaking forward & creating from all areas.

 

At the moment we have little support for Vernon going forward other than the wingers. This just gives us better options going forward but obviously sacrifices a good bit of the safe/negative way we play at the moment.

 

It has it's obvious draw backs but it also has it's obvious positives to counter that.

 

The best way to defend is to attack after all

 

I have deleted two blank lines to bring Smith & Hayes back a little into midfield to make it look less scary

 

But it's still the same idea, as in a five or three man mid dependin on which ones break forward at the time.

Clangers

 

Jack Reynolds Anderson Considine

 

Fraser Osbourne Rae Hayes

 

McGinn Vernon

 

Robertson - No, wasn't impressed last night.

Magennis - See Jack as a better player and would rather he played full back.

Hughes - Not been impressed this season to be honest. Nice touches etc, but too slow and don't really see us missing him.

Osbourne - Will have to play better than last night but a bit of bite and a high workrate in midfield like against Hearts and we can take control.

McGinn up front - Well, pretty much crying out for a partner for Vernon.

Forgot about Jack. Yeah I'd have him at RB in my line up but would drop Rae for Smith basically.

 

Smith looked very good to me last nite
