Have a nice evening. Sweet dreams about Del’s masterclass in tactics.

Night night.
It’s all part of the enjoyment of football analysing any teams / managers tactics and how they work.
How they manipulate the ball and pull players into positions they don’t want to go into.
It can make the most boring 0-0 game to some, fascinating to analyse.

Luckily when Derek McInnes comes up against the good teams your guaranteed goals unfortunately the majority will be for the opposition !!!

Not at all.
You can apply for any team.
You can also see different areas and components that work regardless of the result.

I prefer looking at the tactics, system and goals scored to analyse how we played. Us having a big fat zero for goals scored and Celtic having two means we failed at getting the 3 points needed.
Some people though get excited about the headers we won and the system we might have looked like playing when their goalkeeper (yes goalkeeper) had the ball at his feet.
Easily pleased comes to mind.

The bottom line is that Hearts showed how to beat (& hammer) Celtic.
They were the template.
Press high, harass, be physical.

We were the polar opposite.

No excuses.

Tactically, he got it badly wrong. Again.

And more worryingly, he’s not seeing anything wrong in his tactics, so expect more of the same next time.
The definition of insanity...

On holiday in Spain today. Watching the game in a pub and shouting like ****. A WBA fan comes across and says “All WBA fans want your manager”. “He is a legend”. I explained to him our record in the big games. Take him now please.

Just look at today’s game.
A couple of Celtics best opportunities came breaking at speed, counter attacking us.
Leaving our players stranded.
Hell, their second goal is a prime example of the risks of going gun hoe against Celtic.

I also recall a game at Parkhead, when we pumped them in the first half, Celtic were backs to the wall, yet the get a corner from a hashed clearance and scored right before half time.
Think we lost that one by 3 or 4.

Gun hoe can be exciting, but hugely risky and hugely likely of a hadefeat against better teams.
Being solid ad counter attacking should provide a better chance of staying in the game and getter better results.

It's gung ho! Gun hoe must be out of grand theft auto. And we never pressed. We sat in until Celtic got 10 yards inside our half. When behind there was a higher pressing in the 2nd half. DM didn't believe he could win and would have been delighted with nil Nil. To my eyes we never threatened and Celtic cruised it playing within themselves. For our boss to praise himself after another defeat, well it's just wrong.

Just for the record i would love to see the back of Milne, McInnes and Craig Brown... a shower of old scum lickspittles.

If we could have been better at the second ball, be calmer when in possession and more importantly cut out the defensive mistakes / hoofs / sclaffs, then we would have fared better.

Reminds me of the old Only an Excuse sketch where Jim Farry get interviewed as a youngster outside Hampden after the Real Madrid 7 v 3 Eintracht Frankfurt euro cup final and the interview asks what he thought and Farry finishes by saying "well if Madrid didn't score seven Frankfurt would have won 3-0"
