craig 5,199 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I’m trying to watch aberdeen a bit more than usual this afternoon rather than just us. Have to admit that despite us being up 1-0 and despite us pretty much dominating play... I don’t think the way they are trying to play is all that bad. They are using wingers in Wright and Stewart, looking to get it wide and get early balls in. They’ve also been trying to play a possession game. The issue they have is, as was the case Wednesday, they are coming up against a motivated Rangers side who is giving them very little time on the ball, very little space, being physical. In fact, actually looks to me as if the Rangers players know it will be McInnes and that the last two games has been an audition for them. The work rate has been markedly higher the last two games. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

der Berliner 3,424 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 (edited) What is it with you folks? We beat his team, not him personally. When he comes to - just in case - he'll have 20odd different players at his disposal of a better quality than what he has now. Had his lot beaten us, which was, truth be told, very much on the cards 6 days ago, would we laud him for his greatness? A touch more perspective is required. NB: Just imagine we had slaughterd Accies due to the chances we created and had not been humbled by Dundee, we'd be 1 point behind the Scum ... who would want another manager?

Big Jaws 570 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 (edited) I've said it from day one when he was first mentioned that I like Derek he's a good lad but I don't want him as Rangers manager and my opinion hasn't changed regardless of whether we beat the team he manages at the moment or not.

Maybe it's the beard. No amount of scrutiny of Aberdeen FC will reveal how McInnes will fare at Ibrox. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFK-1 1,690 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I don't think we can judge McInnes on his inability to beat a superior side when all he has is league one freebies and no transfer budget. Give Rogers the same limitations and see how he does 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No amount of scrutiny of Aberdeen FC will reveal how McInnes will fare at Ibrox. That's a bit insulting, frankly. However, I'll refrain from further comment on the vacuity of your observation. Actually, I have worn beards, various, at times, various, so my view has nothing to do with facial hair. For me, among other things, McInnes has failed, publicly, a 2 part audition for the job.

I'm still not campaigning for McInnes but he has been securing them second place finishes with league 1 freebies and no transfer budget. It remains to be seen what he could do with a better quality squad and a multi million transfer budget to improve it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
