Dirthy Filthy Hun Scumbag Vermin (deceased) and Poundland tribute act
Mason89 replied to mizer's topic in Football ChatThat is a huge amount of turd polishing. The games you’ve mentioned were good results but not ones that required bottle, as we weren’t really going into them as favourites. The St. Johnstone semi was the biggest bottle job I’ve seen. The semis against the PJMs, Motherwell, even the final he won was a bottle job. Most of Scotland were finishing above the Huns when he was in charge. Were Dumbarton showing bottle? 😆

Aberdeen v Dundee (League Cup)
OrlandoDon replied to swaddon's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubToo much doom and gloom here. Early season and a ton of new players. Again. Injuries don’t help but last week was briedl’s first real taste of Scottish football. Expect him to be better tomorrow. Olasanya is a complication. Don’t think he helps with balance as he’s not a right mid, yet he’s involved in many of our goals. I’d still prefer smith on the right, newbie on the left, and hopefull Ronan behind nisbet. Armstrong shouldn’t start, I don’t think he has the legs for a full game and whether consciously or not, you adapt your game when starting versus and impact sub giving it everything when you come on. 2-1 us, nisbet and olasanya. I will add, def agree we are a brad lyons midfielder type short. If Ronan is out tomorrow we’re lightning the middle of the park too. I’d even be inclined to start Marshall and bring Armstrong in when appropriate. -

Dirthy Filthy Hun Scumbag Vermin (deceased) and Poundland tribute act
tlg1903 replied to mizer's topic in Football ChatMy big frustration with McInnes was he was just too conservative in crunch games against the tims.. I suppose you could call that lack of bottle but it seems harsh when really it was only the best celtic team for near 20 years that he couldn't lay a glove on. Other than that I liked him 2bh. He spoke well, was tactically sound, players clearly loved him and I had some of my best times as an Aberdeen fan under his tenure. It went stale and he left under a bit of a cloud but given the shit we had been through before he took over his hisst 6 years were night and day in comparison. @rico it's an interesting point you make re mcinnesball potentially just not being able to cut the mustard at mordor. Time will tell but, to play devil's advocate, he did inherit a hoor of a mess there. It's not looking good for him currently but I wouldn't write him off just yet. -

Aberdeen v Dundee (League Cup)
tlg1903 replied to swaddon's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubTime will tell though it could now be a case of needing to get players out before we can take in. My feeling is if we can get Palaversa and Yenghi in particular off the books that's probably near 10k a week in wages freed up. -

Aberdeen v Dundee (League Cup)
RicoS321 replied to swaddon's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubI really hope that Kjartansson leaving was a catalyst for a new midfielder. Obviously we won't get one by tomorrow, but I hope we can see the glaring problem. I actually think Robinson maybe doesn't. -

RicoS321 replied to mizer's topic in Football ChatI'm not on board. His failings were fairly clear. Things like "lack of bottle" are just trite pish which only work if you ignore every single time where his team's did show bottle. Beating Groningen, Rijeka, the Tims final day, Huns semi, finishing above the Huns twice etc etc all showed a degree of bottle. Or, more correctly, they proved that his pragmatic tactics would equally as likely yield results as approaches taken by other managers, that had their own stories of glorious failure. Clarke was the only manager in McInnes era with us that consistently better results against better teams and that's because he was and is a better manager. Lennon was regularly lauded at Hibs for "having a go" despite his results being no better and his wider league positions being worse. McInnes' limitations as a manager are what we're experiencing with Robinson, albeit McInnes was far better at the pragmatic approach. In the same way that there is a good argument to suggest that Robinson's approach won't work for Aberdeen (or the expectations of Aberdeen), there is a good argument to suggest McInnes' approach won't work for the Huns (which it undeniably did for the diet Huns last season). Hopefully he'll keep trying to get pragmatic results with a Hun team that should be streets ahead of the rest of the league (bar the Tims), as that'll certainly lead to mediocrity and his firing in short order. -
