stirlingshen Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 At least the management team have probably been aware of this all week and had a plan. Not like they would have found out from a press and journal article and had to write a whole new game plan the night before Link to comment

caledonia Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 We think we should win and so do they We had one dire performance in the last round and going by their forums they think they had theirs last week So who knows but as we have to score leaving out Rooney as some have sugested is crazy Link to comment
HairyPie Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Aberdeen will create 6 or 7 good chances during the game - if not able to play through Maribor they have signed an option to play long-ball effectively if required. It is all a case of being able to convert some of those chances. Get two of them and it doesn't really matter what Maribor think about themselves, they won't score three. Link to comment

HairyPie Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Is Ash Taylor playing? Ash Taylor is about to surprise everyone, coming on to a Miller-esque run of excellent form spanning several seasons. 1 Link to comment
Dynamo Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Hayes out is obviously a big blow, but not as big as it would have been last season. We have Burns, Storey and Pawlett all capable of stepping in. I'd start Burns. Link to comment

We have Burns, Storey and Pawlett all capable of stepping in. I'd start Burns. Pawlett isn't anywhere near good enough to make up for Hayes not playing. Burns and Storey hopefully are though.

The Cockney Don Posted August 4, 2016 Author Share Posted August 4, 2016 WE CAN DO IT !!! 1 Link to comment
S2RDS Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Got a good feeling about tonight, so hopefully we can do it! Play like we did in the 1st leg and we have every chance. I didn't think much of them to be honest, but they will be a different team tonight though. They will likely sit back and spray the ball around for the first 20 mins or so, so we need to have a right go at them and hopefully sneak a goal. The away goal for them is an advantage, but we need to score regardless... so heid first. Link to comment
SupportmeansSUPPORT Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 I think McInnes will be cautious to begin with and hope to sneak a goal, but with the option of throwing lots of strikers on and trying to get a goal later in the game if things remain as they are. I think the team that will be picked to start will be along the lines of Lewis Logan Taylor Reynolds Considine Jack Mclean McGinn Pawlett Shinnie Stockley Link to comment
MegaloDon Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 We will probably be brought down to earth again with a thrashing. then everyone will remember that we have not addressed our defensive concerns& wonder why the club haven’t bolstered the obvious deficiencies. 1 Link to comment
Andy_123 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 I think we'll revert to our 5-3-2 wing back formation for this one. Stockley up top against their number 4 with McGinn buzzing around him for his knockdowns. Link to comment
Clydeside_Sheep Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Its a worry that we may be one-dimensional without Hayes. We need a big game from McGinn and others in the midfield to step up too. On the plus side, its a chance for someone to make a name for themselves. We should just go for it imo. We showed at Pittodrie we can make them look very ordinary, although yes teams are different at home (though this is mostly just down to psychological factors for both teams, not footballing ones).

Lencarl Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Aberdeen will win tonight with a goal to spare. Hayes will be missed but that is why we have a squad. Hope the realNiall McGinn turns up for this one. Link to comment
slippers Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Probably been mentioned but are Maribor seeded for the next round? Link to comment

boboisared Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Hayes will be a loss but McGinn was brilliant last week too. With the likes of Burns and Storey in reserve I'm not as upset about this as I would have been previously. Link to comment
Parklife Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Maribor aren't in the next round.He's asking if they will be seeded for the next round and, i assume, will we take their seeding? We won't take their seeding though, i don't think, as the draw for the next round has not yet been done. Link to comment
boboisared Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Maribor aren't in the next round.Razor min, why the fuck you on here. Go and have some fun pal. Link to comment
Bamber Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Probably been mentioned but are Maribor seeded for the next round? Wouldn't matter anyway we don't take their seeding - that only happens in QR3 when you take the QR2 highest seeding into the 3rd round Link to comment

craegDAMH Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 With Hayes out we will start with something like this: Lewis Taylor Reynolds Considine Logan Shinnie Jack McLean McGinn Rooney Stockley Which can change by pushing Shinnie further forward and McGinn out wide. And we'll pump them 2-1. Link to comment
