Kilmarnock v Aberdeen

[rico94]

The reason we are ****housing these games is because the team has been made to try to play nice football out from the back.

None of our centre backs or midfielders are suited to play against the likes of St Mirren or Kilmarnock,they are all in the team to pass the ball around like Man City but these teams will never allow you to do that.

If we are going to be able to battle these teams then a whole load of hammer throwers will be needed and a Steven Robinson type put in charge, otherwise we just need to be happy when we “fluke” the 3 points in these games.

Jimmy is possibly adapting to our game. No point trying to play fancy fitba when the other teams players just bounce our players off the ball.

It's like a Fergie Man U team. Wenger and others would bemoan that the likes of Stoke or Bolton would rough their players up to get points and it wasn't proper football. Fergie never moaned about that, as he usually had players who could play and handle the rough stuff.

I honestly think a lot of fans at a lot of clubs watch too much Sky and think fitba should be all tippy tappy shyte, at every level. Whilst you want to see good fitba, it is great to sh*thouse a win.

We have some good battlers in our team and other not so much. It's about getting the balance right and getting confidence into the players, which will come by winning games and pulling ourselves away from the bottom reaches of the league.

If we can do that, maybe the better footballers can start to prove their worth.

Motherwell and Hearts are our next league games at home. I'd quite happily sh*thouse those games too, if it means six points.

In reality, winning the league games is all that matters so I am pleased we went to Kilmarnock and came away with all the points. Well done Dons.
I was happy to see the young lad Lobban getting a start and he will progress from this if we keep giving the lad the opportunity to play.

I wonder if the appointment of Lutz is having an effect on everyone regarding the football side of the club. A real football person coming into the club around 10th November will mean only certain excuses will be accepted and tolerated for a short period of time.
I would imagine the new guy will be monitoring how we train and how we conduct ourselves through matches played.
No offence to Steven Gunn (who has now been replaced), Alan Burrows or Dave Cormack but this guy has more clout talking to the manager about football. The manager will be kept on his toes now.
I am pleased we have employed a football person at the club to oversee our football situation. Well done Dave Cormack in that regard.
