der Berliner 3,744 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Good start, then they had a spell, we took over again and they struck on the counter. In fact, it could be 2-0, bar that offside call (which was correct). McGregor's close-range skill have gone, seemingly. We have two DMs on the field, yet the waltz through time and again. Tillman plays far too often far too deep. Kent again here, there and no-where to be seen. Hence, despite our dominance, once more far too disjointed. Alfie needs too many chances, even though he almost managed one. Half-time tea needed again ... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not disagreeing with your point there but to the rule the forward doesn’t interfere until he gets on the ball or obstructs a defender. No idea why our defenders switched off knowing play would continue as the forward didn’t show intent to go for the ball 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Moon 1,289 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 That was a sore blow. Disaster all round. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malangsob 1,264 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I see us scoring two, perhaps three in the second half. We have been unlucky. Once we secure the first goal, the others will fall in much more easily. This should be an enjoyable watch...much more clinical I suspect. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutton_blows_goats 5,333 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) Interesting seeing Shinnie come into this Aberdeen team from nearly nowhere and dominate the game. What a novel idea needing a midfielder and going to get one. Edited January 15, 2023 by Sutton_blows_goats 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
