Match Thread Dundee 0 - 1 Aberdeen

[Sheepskin_1903]

Beaten by ST Mirren on the opening day 2-1. Expecting nothing less than a convincing win with hopefully the added bonus of a clean sheet.

 

Plenty travelling down

 

Inuries: Reynolds, Hobban, Tansey and Mckenna.

 

Suspended: Logan

The problems remain up front.

Maybe drop Forrester for Cosgrove and play two up top. Jack Hamilton is dodgy when closed down so we need Anderson's energy in there to do this. Against St Mirren Dundee played Cammy Kerr at left back and didn’t attack down the left at all with Kerr not natural on his left side. So this would be an easy game for Harrington to come in to. Their new guy Mendy up front is decent. He's energetic and alert - we cannot play Ball against him as he gets caught ball-watching (no pun intended) far too often in defence.

[Parklife]

Cosgrove is a certainty to start. The more folk call for Anderson to play, the more McInnes' stubbornness will come out and he'll stick with Cosgrove.

 

Out.

 

0-2. GMS x2

He's definitely going to start Cozzie. Anderson will be on the bench.

He makes Cosgrove look good.

Ive a feeling Cosgrove will play ahead of Anderson and Ball will be put to RB - with Forrester coming in for him (Ferguson moving back one),

 

Unless we miraculously sign someone.

[C'monEweReds]

Hopefully bang in a few goals in this one. With a week to recover from a hectic couple of weeks there can be no excuses for a performance like sunday (which as i think alot of people have said i am willing to let slide all considering).

 

Despite the loss on saturday Dundee actually looked to play pretty well and created a few chances for themselves, they really should have won that game. We need to be careful. A win on Saturday is so important for confidence, especially the new lads who started off with a tough first 2 competitive games for the club. Hope we can bring a in a new face this week we really are still lacking in bodies need AT LEAST a striker and centre back.

 

Cant make the game with work commitments but will be listening on the radio come 3 o'clock. Lets shut that arrogant, brainless, ignorant scouse bastards mouth and climb above them in the table in the next few weeks.

 

Forza Aberdeen

[DaveTheDon]

We need to start taking the game to these diddy teams. Sick of us playing one dimensional, boring, safe football. Stick 2 up front, give gms and mcginn a licence to run at them and watch the goals flow. Their keeper was fucking shit againt st mirren.

Dont think it matters who McInnes plays at the back as we have too much for them to cause us any real threat.

We need a big win early on to show the rest of the league we are still best of the rest.

Derek more or less said Ball will be right back until Shay is back.

[boboisared]

I expect the team to remain unchanged from Sunday. Deeks comments post game suggested he thinks we didn't actually play that badly.

 

2-0 Aberdeen, GMS & Ferguson to net.

Certainly not how I took them. I took them as Rangers weren't as good as Gerrard had thought.

Derek is a clueless fucking idiot!

[Tord31]

Hopefully Hoban is back for this one as was under the impression he was only a doubt (along with Cosgrove and McGinn) for the last one. I'd start May as a last chance saloon assuming he will be 3rd or 4th choice within a week or two.

“Dominic Ball filled in at right back on Sunday and he did that really well."

[DelMonte]

How many people out of the ones suggesting Harrington starts have seen him play?

At least half.

I've not seen him.

 

But I'd still like to see him get a shot unless folks on here are telling me he's pap?

 

Ball looked very uncomfortable at RB to me. Maybe Shinnie or Hoban if he's back would do better.

 

Ball is much better suited in CM

[Scotty_Toronto]

They certainly always give you a laugh. Of that there's no doubt.

The shouting from McInnes coming from the home dressing room at h/t on Sunday would suggest otherwise.

We do take the game to these 'diddy' teams. Our overall record against such teams is excellent.

It's against Celtic and Sevco where we let ourselves down.

[Betty Swallicks]

IN.

 

Meltdown of not winning by half time.

[Byrne Baby Byrne]

McKenna, Logan, Reynolds and Hoban all potentially missing for this one. Hardly blessed with options and gonna stick Cafu at right back are we

 

Although he is currently a free agent and probably still better than Ball

[Old Wing Stand]

I know why the fuck does he not listen to a clued up guy like you ? I'm sure we'd be a much better team for it !
