Match Thread Dundee V Aberdeen (Postponed)

[C'monEweReds]

Big game in terms of keeping our league form on the rise, 3 wins on the bounce is very welcome. 

Huge couple of weeks before the winter break, time to push on.

Out (Would have loved to have made this one)

Dundee 0 Dons 2

 

[Zeus]

1-0 The Dons. Jimmy McGarry with the all important goal 

[Reed or deed]

Tommy Doc to teach Baz a thing or two about the old tactics and soccerball.

Dundee 6-1 Aberdeen

[Simply Red]

0-4 redz

Presumably he'll start 352.

Suspect he'll drop McGarry, Polvara and McDonald.

Whether its 352, 4231 or 433 get Duk out wide left on the ball as he's looked good in the last two games out there.

Unless Barron is coming in, which I suspect he won't be, surely he has to play Polvara. If anyone's dropping out that midfield it's got to be Shinnie - 3 games in 6 days is beyond him now. I reckon he'll probably play though. Rubezic back in possibly, and wonder if Duncan might get a run out on the LWB role, although he's not had much game time in recent weeks.

Should definitely go 4231 or even 433, but suspect as you say it'll be 352...

Roos
Gartenmann Rubezic Jensen
Devlin Polvara Clarkson Shinnie Duncan
Miovski Duk

[Howard Marks]

Buzzing for this one. Let's keep the momentum and positive vibes going.

Good meet a couple of you pre-match before the final and would be good to put more faces to the names at the Clepington Bar this Saturday.

Seance?

Hopefully Aberdeen win this football match to keep the good run of form going.

Would be looking to leaving Gartenmann on the bench. He has been very poor recently.

Plus he's not even our player. Unless it's a stand out player like Christie/Maddison/Pollock, our own boys should be in ahead of loans.

  Not just me then!!!

[Dad]

The Shayden Morris Show it'll be 😎 

 

Dundee 0-4 ShayMo

[CCB III]

Last time we won three league games on the spin? 
 

Draw

[The Gee Man]

433! Start with Miovski/Duk and Sokler 

6-5 to the Dons COYR

[Frank Grimes]

Not confident at all 

Tony Doc seems to be getting a decent tune out of Dundee in the top flight which history will show is no mean feat 

Would love to be wrong but got a bad feeling about this one 

2-1 Dundee

Same, they have a few good young ambitious players by the looks of it all knowing there jobs and roles within there structure, whereas we just don’t.(we have good young players but look like they haven’t the foggiest what Robson wants them to do).

When Robson was caretaker last season.

Piss poor.

 

[aberdeen1970]

This will be a tough game. 

Dundee have done well so far. They've been adventurous in their signings as well as managing to get some of their own youngsters in the team. I think they've got a good mix. 

I'll take any sort of win. 

[WesthillWanderersFC]

If Robson has any sense, he’ll stick with a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1.

However he has no sense, so the daft bastard will likely revert to 3-5-2.

I’d go with 

                    Roos. 
Devlin Ruby MacDonald Jensen. 
             Polvara Shinnie. 
     McGrath Clarkson Duk   
                   Miovski 

I was going to put Morris in, but I don’t trust him enough. 

1-1 draw.

Kick the ball 50 yards as fast as you can, obviously. 

[Dons79]

Sounds about right 😂😂😂

This but I would have McGrath in for Shinnie. 

[Hoofball]

@Barry Robson, I dare you to play an attacking 433 against Dundee. If it fails I’ll take all responsibility and blame 👍🏻

Well he has been getting his tactics from you so far.

Can see the inexperienced Tony Doc taking over from Robson by Easter.

Agreed. Started finding form this time last season as well. Hopefully finally fit.

Lesson for the new Manager is to not let the cunt fuck off to Mexico during preseason and come back like a burrito.

I’d have Shinnie at LB, Jensen beside Ruby, Barron in front of the back 4..either Clarkson or McGrath as the highest of the 3 in the middle.

4-3-3. Ball on the deck! 3-0 Dons!
