St Midden Roll Call Match Thread & Sh1te

[RedStarTorphins]

no its because we are too slow. you don't need to beat your man every time as a winger, an early ball in is a great option. we've been playing half a dozen sideway passes and then punt for a number of years, it shouldn't be a shock. they are all rigid in their role. boring, robotic, slow football.

Correct.
We don’t play with enough pace.
We need to move the ball quicker.
It’s McInnes way though.
Sideways & ponderous.

And defensively we’re poor just now.
F**k knows what the defence will be next week?
Ball Devlin Considine & Lowe?
Hoban out for season likely, McKenna still suspended, Logan unlikely to be fit.

FFS that gives me the fear.

I like Niall McGinn. Best crosser of a ball in Scotland and great with assists throughout his time at Aberdeen. Didn’t have the best match today by all accounts but no starting player was blameless today. We rely too much on defensive players doing attacking work where the simple solution would be to get more attack minded players in to help with our frustrating play for the majority of matches. The blame is solely at the manager as he keeps making big mistakes and we hardly ever start off on the front foot properly.

McGinn has his uses even if it is as a squad player,the more I think about it though our best form this season was in December with McGinn and McLennan on the wings with May up front alongside Cosgrove.

McInnes has now changed the formation to accommodate Stewart and is playing GMS to convince him to sign a new deal,I can understand playing Stewart because we just signed him but GMS needs to be told if he won’t sign a new deal then McLennan gets picked ahead of him because he has done nothing since he has came back from that injury.

I agree McGinn has his uses, but really it needs to be from the bench after the opposition are tiring.
He’s not had the pace or impact to get past the fullback all season.

McLennan and GMS on the wings for me.

[Mr_Grieves]

Considine is not the only problem but he is a big part of the problem,always has been and always will be.

The problem is the amount of games Hoban and Devlin miss through injury. Ideally Logan and Considine would've just been used as back-ups this season, thats why we tried to sign Naismith in the summer.

Logan and McKenna should be back next week

Think you’re wrong.
On both counts.
McKenna 100% suspended & Logan seeing a specialist next week.
Ball at RB
Devlin clearly not up to speed.
Considine at left centre back
