Match Thread Aberdeen 2 - 1 Breidablik (5 - 3)

[Andy_123]

Glad to see JET on the bench. Hasn’t done nearly enough the last few games to deserve a start here.

[fine-n-dandy]

Erring slightly more on caution & control of middle with McGeouch over Hayes.

For me that was the only likely tough decision for Glass to make as rest of team basically picks itself.

 

Time will tell if the Hayes/McGeouch decision was best & I can honestly say I am not sure which way I would have went myself on it. ?Glass has called it right.

 

JET pretty much played himself out of start v Livi

Considine back post 1-0 will do for a start from yet another Ramsay assist

Aye, he keeps us ticking over in possession of the ball - the root of our 1st half problems last week coupled to the defensive clown show

I think that’s all are attack minded players bar JET in the team. *
 

*excludng Kennedy for good reason

Pretty sure Hayes would be classed as attack minded, more so than McGeouch at least.

Happy with line up & as I said above, only decision for Glass to make was between those two.

[Macski]

Could be a back 4 with McCrorie in midfield. Don't know how they all fit in there, but with Brown or McGeouch sitting as cover you can still have plenty width with the two young loons bombing up and down.

[fine-n-dandy]

Must feel really strange for Brown having whole of Pittodrie backing him ?

Probably, just chucking another thought in there.

Hopefully gives him the boot up arse needed. Maybe get away with coasting at Livi but not with Aberdeen (under Glass at least)

[G31DON]

3 at centre half, with the two youngsters playing wing back.

Aye 352. You could maybe argue 3421

Spot on min.

[AllyDon]

Slow start. Not holding onto the ball well at all and far too many looking for the backward pass. 

Need to take the game more to them. Put them on the backfoot.

A lot if players in our team tonight like the game in front of them though

They came out of the traps fast, but as the tempo slows we should take control, since we've looked the better side.

Probably ?

Doubler... I'll leave it up, though.

How good is it to hear the songs / chants ring out in Pittodrie once again? ?

Aye its great. 

On holiday but wish I was in Aberdeen tonight 

[Crossbow]

We’re a bit ponderous. 

[Andy_123]

We haven’t really got going yet. Needing to pull the finger out a bit.

Who’s the co-commentator today?

Love local scrap merchants.

[fine-n-dandy]

Letting them have a bit too much ball & we’re trying to do quick counter game.

We should be aiming for far more dominant display

Picked a team to keep the ball but we're not really doing it so far
