    Watched the game on Alba. Great goal from Duk, but didn't think we were looking great and Hibs looking the better team. Sending off fecked us, but thought tactically we were shyte with ten men and Hibs just overran us in the middle and were worthy winners. We had two good wins when playing against 10 mean at Pittodrie and today the shoe was on the other foot.

    I do still think it is early days and wanted the first round of games out of the way before really stating opinions on players, but starting to think a few just aren't good enough or just struggle with the pace of our game. I also think JG has to wise up with tactics and most certainly has to change out some players if he has real intentions of getting us where he speaks about taking us where he thinks we should be as the bare minimum.

    A real sore one.

    It seems as if Goodwin knows how to play against ten men but not with ten men. The capitulation today, signaled by the immediate introduction of Polvara, told Hibs everything they needed to know about Aberdeen’s tactics. It was the same as last season’s defeat by St Mirren. Given we were not on either occasion facing Real Madrid, an attempt to attack might at least have stemmed the waves which flooded forward against us. If any forward was going off then it should have been Miovski – that was not his game today with 10 men but it could have been Duk’s.

    Good summary pal,when Polvara came on i thought he was out his depth,looked like an American amateur to be fair.
    Great goal by Duk and why did Goodwin take him off?
    Miovski was sh!te again,missed a sitter,he needs to get his head out his bum and start scoring again

    It will always be the case when you play a striker mile Miovski who makes little to no effort off the ball in the defensive phase, the rest of the XI have to run around doing his work for him, he's purely a goal poacher

    When down to 10 he should have been subbed off not DUK, at least DUK works for the team defensively and can run and press, we were effectively down to 9 men with Miosvki on loitering around and he still missed a sitter in what was about his 3rd touch in the entire second half

    Boyd was the same for Rangers, used to be dropped in european games because its like playing with 10 men, Rangers got away with it in the SPL because the other 10 players quality let them get away with it against SPL standard teams
