Aberdeen V Hamilton (3 - 0)


Recommended Posts


I suspect if flood, low and robson we're fit then we'd go back to a brutal 4-5-1 and set out for the 1-0.

 

In their absence I'd drop GW (which is harsh, he's trying his erse for that first goal) and play shankland as outside right with Rooney through the middle. Might consider smith for pawlett too but not convinced. Begrudgingly McGinn retains his starting place.

 

Hoping to make this one so shankland has better get some decent game time do I can come on here and moan that he's obviously shite!

I know what you're saying and I'll try anything to pep it up. But this is the team directly above us, this is potentially to go 3rd and we're at home. Can we please leave the one bit of the defensive jigsaw that we are happy with in place till we sort out the rest of them. Only place Logan needs to be going is their by line on the overlap and the lack of an effective outside right ( not to mention a fucking lazy one that doesn't cover when he does go forward) isn't helping in that regard.

Maybe controversial but Shankland in for Rooney.

 

Shankland and Goodwillie upfront for a few games. Goodwillies link up play is fantastic and his team mates should be taking advantage of this. His team mates need to be making better opportunities for Goodie. Rooney and McGinn guilty of not passing to Goodwillie when he has made the run or found the space. With the correct formation and partner we will score goals.

 

McGinn also guilty of missing sitters and I don't mean the last minute chance against Dundee. His job is to make opportunities for the strikers. Goodwillie is by far the most intelligent and skilful striker we have had in a long time.

Shankland Goodwillie

 

Young team but good balance. Murray is a bit of a gamble but what I have seen of him pre injury he is no worse than Considine at defending as a right back and offers far more going forward. Considine is fine in the centre but a week link at right back.

My concern with Murray lies physically. Of what ive seen from Hamilton they appear to be big strong physical team. I would be a tad concerned with Murray coming up with the likes of Antoine-Curier

I'm certainly concerned by his physical appearance.

 

From what I've read here, we should probably start with 11 Shanklands as he sounds like he's the messiah.

I'd like to see Robson and Smith stay on the bench. Hopefully Shankland will get at least 25 minutes. Him and Goodwillie upfront could work.

Unfortunately I think the midfield might need Robson on Saturday with Flood being out. Same team from Saturday will get physically ripped apart.

Feel we'll bounce back after the dundee result with a good result against Hamilton. Too many taking issue with DM after Saturday however the team played well and were applauded off the pitch. Luck was against us that day. I actually believe it was required to get this team to reach the rest of their goals I.e. winning the league cup and finishing second.

 

I agree I'd like to see Shankland given more game time however I'm not sure about starting the lad just yet. Give him the last 30 mins depending on how DG and Rooney is playing. Also would be very tempted to start McGinn up front instead of DG and have Robson starting (if fit).
