Ball Shinnie

 

McLennan Ferguson GMS

 

Cosgrove

 

subs: Cerny, McGinn, Wright, Wilson, May, Gleeson, Anderson

 

predicton: 2-0 Dons

[mcdougall(4)]

I want us to play with pace and tempo in this game.

 

Especially in our movement and passing - crisp and purposeful.

 

If Anderson is fully fit, I think this could be the game for him from the start.

 

Give a few of the young loons a start actually, McLennan for McGinn, continue with Wright and Ferguson

[Shinniesta]

In.

 

2-0 Dons.

[strachanmcgheegoal]

On the basis McGinn won’t play I wouldn’t have an issue with us trying McLennan and Anderson in this one, particularly if we get a couple of goals to the good.

4-4-2 with the two young strikers of you please Deek.

Crisp and purposeful? Fucking long way to go after that horror show today

Why will we need to make so many changes? Same team again for me apart from Lowe for Considine. We need to try and get a settled team.

Because we can't score goals or control a game, so you bring in different players in an attempt to do so. 

[aberdeen1970]

Wilson and Wright need games though.

 

McGinn might get rested. I'd like to see Ross or McLennan get a game if that's the case. Personally I think McGinn needs a run of games too.

 

Our best runs in recent years have been when we've got a settled line up. The current team isn't far off the best line up but they need to play more games together.

Ross still injured.

 

And Lowe injured his knee 20 mins from the end today but played so, so might be doubtful for the visit of the Lanarkshire team

Might see Shinnie in a rare appearance at left back then.

 

Ball or Gleeson might get a start in midfield alongside Ferguson.

 

I'd like to see the front 4 retained and get a few games together to see if they can gel.

I didn't say anything about leaving out Wright but as for Wilson, as talented as he obviously is, he was absolutely bog brush today and worse than his inability to influence the game - he hid, he at no point took any responsibility or accountability.

Very poor from him.

I agree, he was poor. I'd still persevere though. He's hardly been fit since he came here. Needs to get match fit.

 

The tactics don't help either. He's hardly suited to trying to head on long diagonal balls.

You'd def think twice if you were a striker signing for Aberdeen when you're out of form and needing goals to get your confidence back and the only service you're getting is long balls punted in your general direction. I thought Wilson looked a class above anyone when he had the ball at his feet in the first few games he played but yesterday i can't even remember him receiving the ball like that. Desperately need something in the middle of the park thats going to link everything together.  

[maryhilldon]

 

Mcginn needs dropped, actually forgot he was on the pitch earlier.

Only piece of quality to set up the header.

[CalgaryDon]

I've no doubt we'll win. I'm predicting 2-0 Aberdeen. I think we'll pull ourselves back up the table with a string of victories starting against Hamilton. Come late December we'll be right in the mix of it once again. Hoping for a decent turnout especially having just beaten The Rangers.

 

2-0 Aberdeen (Wilson x2)

[RUL]

Should win but the players put a fucking hell of a shift in, would imagine McInnes will use the squad.  Hopefully get a early goal as I imagine they will be coming to sit in. 

[Tord31]

McInnes probably needs to stick with one striker for the four games before the final to give them the best chance to get into their stride.

 

I presume the vote goes to Wilson over Cosgrove or May? Anderson is not ready yet for that pressure.

        Ferguson.  Shinnie

 

Mclennan.  Wright.  GMS

 

               Wilson

 

In 4-0 with Wilson getting a hat trick

[Tord31]

Looks a good team though doubt Wilson will get near the 90 mins after shift he put in on Sunday.

 

Resting McGinn and Considine a good idea.

Where was his movement, his runs, showing and coming short, demanding it to feet.

Giving options.

 

He didn't

[strachanmcgheegoal]

Assuming McGinn, Considine, Lowe and possibly Wilson are out I’m guessing Shinnie to LB and Ball in beside Ferguson. Forrester(or Gleeson, depends if Ferguson wants to do the AM role) central and Wright to right wing?

A rare moment of unity with McDoogs. He stranded himsel up there.

 

Rooney was decent for coming deep and making things happen. And IIRC Kane did it excellently at the WC for England.

Wilson? Shift? What match were you watching? He wasn’t offering anything to anyone.

[Tord31]

His shift is a bitty different to Shinnie type shift.

 

Your lucky he's nae oot injured for midweek

[King Street Loon]

Unfortunately out for this one and the next 2 or 3.

Awa on holiday tomorrow.
