  1. Miller reckoning it’s 4-4-2 on radio.
  2. 3-5-2? Surprised at Kamberi being pitched straight in with him not having played since December. Thought he might start on bench.
  3. Took his appearances from soccerbase which is usually accurate. https://www.soccerbase.com/players/player.sd?player_id=85672
  4. Kamberi hasn’t played since 16th December so will be nowhere near match fit. Would be big risk starting him tomorrow.
  5. According to P&J Kamberi will be available for tomorrow. https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/sport/football/aberdeen-fc/2896861/loan-striker-florian-kamberi-receives-clearance-to-play-for-aberdeen-against-st-mirren/amp/?__twitter_impression=true
  6. Don’t see it with Hendry. Charges about a lot but think he is a red card waiting to happen. Would rather we stuck with Ruth if running about a lot is all we are looking for. At least we would be giving game time to our own player. Think there is a player in Hornby but not sure where he fits our team.
  7. Like Moreles before him Roofe given two game ban. Press really need to start asking why refs are missing so many decisions like this in games involving the blue bigots.
  8. Bayern win world club championship beating Tigres 1-0 . Pretty disappointing game. Bayern doing just enough to win.
  9. Thinking about it. Question about relationship with Atlanta how holding a player like Hernandez benefits Aberdeen.
  10. I don’t think we should ever sign squad fillers. Any signing should be a player to take the place of the existing player in that position and that player becomes your back up or is moved on. Any other gaps should be from our own youngsters and not players on loan from other premier league clubs. (ETA unless it’s a try before you buy deal like McCrorie.) I thought Leigh was a poor player last season even when at left back. Was disappointed when we resigned him.
  11. With Hornby allegedly being sick all week it’s is likely to be St Johnstone’s 4th choice striker up front from Saturday unless we go with McGinn.
  12. At last a piece of good news. Greg Leigh out for the season. https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/fp/sport/football/aberdeen-fc/donsnews/aberdeen-defender-greg-leigh-out-for-the-season-with-a-hamstring-injury/amp/?__twitter_impression=true
  13. Another dodgy penalty. No contact on at all on Taylor when he went over.
  14. To be fair I think it was Rico that first brought up the inverted wingers and I just agreed with him. Really need to see a reaction from the team from management down but I thought that after Livingston and we actually got worse not better. Hopefully Kamberi will arrive this week and he will be available for Saturday to give us another option up front. Really think we need to go back to 4 at the back. Oot park with bairn tv flat 1-0 Ferguson.
  15. Three was fine when it was Hoban, McKenna and Considine but now McKenna is away Taylor doesn’t have the positional discipline to play a three and Leigh is just shite. Agree we need to go back to a 4. I would have Hoban and Considine as centre backs and Logan and Hayes as fullbacks. Would think 5 in midfield (call it 2-3 if you must) is best option with the players we have. Not convinced that any of the three strikers are suited to play as lone striker but don’t think we have option of going with two strikers if we are abandoning 3 at the back.
  16. Tommy Wright confirmed as new Killie manager. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55963647
  17. Yup usually the kiss of death.
  18. Looked better than anything produced by either of our forwards in last two games which makes him good enough for Aberdeen at the moment.
  19. Anderson playing full 90 minutes for Accies this time. Played well forcing McGregor into several good saves including the one he parried to Callaghan for the equaliser in the 1-1 draw with Tribute Act.
  20. Tommy Wright about to be appointed Killie manager according to BBC. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55939904
  21. Really hope not.
  22. Can have no complaints about that other than soft penalty. We would still have lost even if they were not awarded it. We were hopeless at the back from the off. Zero creation in midfield and zero up front. Ferguson was totally out of his depth trying to support striker. Though McGeouch was our best player. Need him to stay fit. The inverted winger thing has to change. Simply not working. Disagree with comments on Hornby Rico though he played well enough and unlucky not to score while Hendry looked every inch a player who was 4th choice as St Johnstone. Cannot fault his effort but zero ability or positional sense. Despite rumours cannot see McInnes being punted until summer. He has not even had the chance to field Kamberi at left back yet.
  23. Never a penalty.
  24. Leigh off injured after 5 minutes. Got his feet all wrong trying to clear and injured himself.
  25. That goes without saying. Looks like plan is to get crosses into a striker who says his strength is ball to feet.
