One of the most inept, passionless performances I've ever seen from an Aberdeen team. No fight, consigned to defeat before the game started. continuously punting high balls to May when Boyata is literally about 7ft tall and swept up everything with ease... I don't mind getting beat if we've had a go, but we were utter pish, clueless and let them stroll around like it was a training match. Pissed off
Very very disappointed with tonights result. I expected and demanded a better performance.
Yes Celtic are the best side in Scotland no doubt about that however, we are the next in line but no fight tonight
You would think the Dons would come out of the traps all guns blazing .... but no
We back down at very opportunity, not one player seems up for it. Shocking attitude
Quickly move on, we need to get points total going starting on Saturday
Newco are in turmoil, we need to keep ahead and win the 2nd place prize and the cash.
Keep the faith Dons fans
Selecting Considine sends the message to the team that we are defending. At this level psychology makes all the difference. The players aren't stupid when they are told the team and Considine is in it they must think "oh feck" its backs to the wall again is it?
Playing players in positions or roles that aren't suited to them grates my...
Rooney is asked to chase their defence and the laddie works hard at it. He's no pace though so hes blowing out his arse and then it begins to open a gap.
May is wasted as well.
The thing is, it was entirely predictable.
I & a few others predicted that starting X1
The manner of the defeat grates the worst.
Pathetic, standing off them.
The two cup finals showed a “right” way & a wrong way to lose against them.
Part of the problem is we just don’t have the pace & fitness to play the right way.
Folk like May, Rooney, GMS don’t “press”, they don’t have the fitness or speed to do that.
To play Rooney & May wide is a waste of a short.
To play them both was wrong.
We must be one of the slowest X1’s in the league.
I am not standing up for or defending Considine here, but I would like to ask why is he the only one being classed as sh!te here when it was Arnason that was skinned for the first goal, it was logan who was worse than sh!te and got the p1ss taken out of him leading to the 2nd, and every single aberdeen player was truly atrocious for the 3rd including Lewis as his positioning was shambollic, but yet some folks chose to single out Considine in typical classic aberdeen "fans" style, there is always one player who gets picked on more than others..... why oh why I shaks ma heed.
That last night was worse than the league cup final from last year and every single one of them are as much to blame as each other, including DM and TD right through the ranks, fkn pissed off at the lot of them, but I wont just single out one man or one player, its a team effort and our team deserved to be thrashed. Hope they can pick themselves up for the Ross Coonty game at the weekend, massive three points up for grabs there and lets start to focus on cementing second spot again....... smelly will win the league in a canter again this season I think we all know that,
Stand Free!!!
I think we are kicking ourselves for believing all the hype that we are second best.
we are more rightly said, least of the worst. for now anyway
We've been pretty poor in quite a few games this season.
IMO The sad thing is that only newco can level the playing field somewhat. Once they get their act together.
The authorities are unable (& unwilling) to have initiative to come up with any solution to the inequality that has existed for decades now
Number of factors here.
Firstly, domestically, we are raselick's biggest football match.
The nonsense around a Sevco game......well and good, but they all know that we're the biggest game.
The gap between us and them, resource wise, is akin to between them and PSG or Bayern.
So when raselick are right up for it, we're p1ssing into the wind.
There's ways and means to get competitive, but the reality is when they're at the top of their game we haven't a chance......and neither does any other Scottish team. The difference is they're always focussed against us......cos it matters.
Sad reality of modern day fitba.
The raselick fans, small minded parochial shower, won't care......well, until after they win ten in a row.
Then they'll get bored......only their annual European Cup @ss raping to look forward to.
I don't know what the answer is......we can slag our players, our tactics, the reality is only one team in Scotland wouldn't take McInnes in a heartbeat, only one team in Scotland, mebbe two, wouldnae take Consi at left back, only one team in Scotland wouldnae take Shay at right back.........etc. etc.
And it's nae just Scotland, same all over.
