Match Thread (Europa League) Aberdeen V Ventspils (3 - 0)

[Tord31]

Doubtful: Flood, Morris

 

We are where we are and unfortunately we still havent sorted central defence or central midfield. I think Alexander may have to come in soon just to add his experience to the team but not quite yet

 

Lewis

 

Logan Taylor Reynolds Considine

 

Jack Shinnie

McGinn McLean Hayes

 

Rooney

 

subs: Alexander, Morris, Flood, Pawlett, Stockley, O'Connor, Storey

prediction: 2-0 COYR!!

[buchanskii]

0-4 Ventspils

[tup]

I'll be at this game.

 

Neil Alexander in goals please.

[Guest milne_afc]

Alexander

 

Logan O'Connor McKenna Shinnie

 

Storie McLean

 

Storey McGinn Hayes

 

Rooney

 

Taylor, Considine and Reynolds should be told to leave before the next training session.

[zander]

3-0 Jack,Reynolds and Taylor.

 

Hopefully this mob are as shite as daugava were.

[stirlingshen]

oddly a 0-0 might be a better result here than a narrow win given how we set up to sit on a lead tonight and the ensuing performance

[dave_min]

Really hope they had scouts watching us tonight.

[sooth_stander]

Joe Lewis out already? He was one of, well only, half decent performer tonight.

 

I'd play Alexander too, but in central defence

[tup]

People who fail to understand football fail to understand that a poor keeper affects the whole defence.

 

Lewis is the problem. Drop him.

[Tord31]

mcinnes too stubborn to change keeper so quick

[rumpus]

I'll be at this game.

 

Neil Alexander in goals please.

[tup]

I'll be at this game.

 

Neil Alexander in goals please.

Pint?

[rumpus]

I might consider it...

[dandydonsfan]

tickets already on sale online. bought mine just now. Need a vastly improved performance, but we played pretty decent in first leg of last round, so same again will see us through.

[sooth_stander]

Fucked if I'm buying tickets for next week till I've heard what McInnes says about tonights shambles

[tup]

He said we deserve to go through.

[Bamber]

Comments are quite fair

 

Fola deserved to win, mental and physical preparation was all wrong, lucky to get through on 1 strong performance - two normally required below par performance.

 

Was doubts that leaving Mcginn out was right decision but needs to look after him

 

looked a million miles from the group stages

 

didnt enjoy the game

 

wont kid anyone - was below par, sometimes in cups you play bad early on and have success later

[Bamber]

Ticket prices look same as last game

 

Home fans get all SS again

 

On sale 930 tomorrow

Aye.

 

They've frozen the prices.

How fuckin generous.

[Bamber]

be interesting to see if we increase crowds or not

[SkyeDon]

Doing a wee bit of research on Ventspils and had totally forgotten Daugava no longer exist.

 

As far as I am aware they were in the same league? Surely nowhere near as bad as they were though...

 

No wonder they were put out of their misery.

[1903Fitba]

Fuck Taylor off.

What happened to them?

What happened to them?

 

Rangers'd.

On one hand people may be disheartened after tonight and expect another shite performance.

 

On the other hand, they may appreciate that our path into the next round isn't as easy as it looks on paper and we need a good support on Thursday.

 

 

Taylor should be nowhere near the line-up on Thursday. Absolute garbage.

 

I'd give O'Connor a crack in defence. Hard to judge him after just 45 minutes.

 

Lewis

 

Logan O'Connor Considine Shinnie

 

McGinn Jack McLean Hayes

 

Rooney Shankland

Rooney Shankland

 

What have you seen from Shankland to suggest he deserves to start such an important match?

 

I'd go with 5 across the middle personally, after such a non-appearance yesterday. Maybe McLean playing off Rooney

[Dusk( 2 Stars )Don]

the shite might hit the fan

[Chewie37]

the shite might hit the fan

 

Hope not, they might get injured, the powderpuffs

[Panda]

 

What have you seen from Shankland to suggest he deserves to start such an important match?

He had a strong end to the season at St Mirren and by all accounts was decent in the, albeit extremely short, pre-season.

 

What have Stockley or Storey done to justify a start instead? Even Rooney isn't 100% fit.

 

He's played on bigger stages before than this.
