Match Thread Ross County v Aberdeen (1 - 1)

[fifered]

Well Adams is a bellend.

[CalgaryDon]

Mentioned this before but out of all the fixtures we had left, this was the toughest in my opinion so it is a decent point. May get stick for that but Ross County seem to up their game against more so then when they play anyone else in the league. I see Tate was subbed off at halftime, was he having a mare? Pawlett is looking set to make a return against Dundee Utd. Rooney again, some player. McGinn won't be our only threat against Dundee Utd thankfully.

A few lessons learned tonight.

 

Tate - hopelessly slow, looks over weight and slow, only play in dire emergency

 

Vernon and Zola - both out at the end of the season

 

Smith - over-rated, difficult to see him making the grade

 

McGinn - does he know who he plays for, needs a rocket up his arse

Logan

Robson

Nothing much there we didn't know already before tonight.

Told you - Langfield MOTM on BT Sports

As soon as Zola got on the end of the ball for his first touch you just knew he was going to run it out. Utter lummox of a player.

[tutankamun]

Clangers MOTM??

Called it.

 

Logan played well but Clangers deserves it for 2 important saves that made all the difference.

[fine-n-dandy]

Suppose that`ll be a Two-match ban for Considine ? , against jutes(h) & farts(a) .

We'll appeal that. He didn't actually foul him. It was a dive.

[Sc0tsmanGB]

Take the point, but it was a poor game, Adam's was dire, Zola (Mr comedy) tries - to be fair - to make an impression but tends to fail, clangers was good as was Jack. McGinn seems to be suffering from a lack of influential play and is

is playing second fiddle to Rooney, fair enough on Rooney he's keen for more. Robson was brilliant as usual.

[weapon]

If we don't get in behind the opposition defense then we struggle as punting half arsed balls up to Rooney doesn't work as he's marked so tightly.

 

So punting Zola up top alongside Rooney may actually work in some games as it pulls the defenders off Rooney and gives him some space.

[King Street Loon]

Robson

Logan

[Stoney]

i'd be surprised to see smith again this season... could not get into the game

[King Street Loon]

Clangers

I have doubts about irish joe

Isn't that true of any player?

I'm just not seeing it with this kid.

Never have to be honest.

 

Once we get more players in next season he needs to go out on loan.

[barassie_afc]

What is smiths actual position

[weapon]

 

Isn't that true of any player?

 

Aye but because Zola is so big the defenders concentrate on him which gives the better player out the two Rooney a chance to feed off Zolas headers and get some shots off.

[Stoney]

would rather have low to bo honest

[Stoney]

What is smiths actual position

substitute

[Stoneybloke]

I have doubts about irish joe

Irish Joe is OK. He will come good, unlike some others.

[barassie_afc]

I dont want zola anywhere the fkn team hopeless

[zoso77]

Two great saves from Clangers the day but he still had his fkn moments

didn't he just,should have come out for the ball in the considine SO..some right good saves though...good game.

[barassie_afc]

Mmmm, very rash , poor technique nowhere near the level of logan

[Ke1t]

Double post there

[tutankamun]

I have doubts about irish joe

Why's that then? Anything specific?

 

Edit: just read your comments above. Remember Joe is a centre half playing as full back, different sort of player to Logan.

[fine-n-dandy]

Logan

He was fantastic & even more so given that he had to switch sides but Robson was an inspiration & shades it for me.

Clangers in with a shout but he did also have a couple of honkers again but more than made up with it with his saves.

[Sc0tsmanGB]

I have doubts about irish joe

I know what you mean, seems better when he starts rather than subbed - or am i being a wee bit optomistic?

[Redstar]

Aye...he's failed too deliver too many times...Langfield MOTM?...come on...him failing to come off his line and clear was the reason Considine was sent off...his distribution was shocking...but he got in the way of a couple of shots...some of you boys are easily pleased...new keeper still required as a matter of urgency.
