Durrant Dived Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 7 minutes ago, tightbreeks said: He's always been in the comfort zone with mcinnes, the first sign of a challenge to his position and he has crumbled. If he wants to earn his position back in the team, it's going to be tough because we have a strong squad and his guaranteed start is no longer is a given. If we are playing a back 4 surely he is playing? Hernandez is not even making the squad but no doubt we would just waste mccrorie there. Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 One of the reasons we aren't playing a back 4 is because we have four full backs who, for various reasons, aren't really good enough. Playing a back 4 would really highlight that issue, whereas 3 at the back helps to hide it (Taylor issues withstanding). Another reason is that the back 3 allows us to play an extra attacking player of which we have plenty. Link to comment
Tord31 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 I'm, sort of, a McInnes fan but I don't give him all the credit for the 3421. He played 3 at the back v St Johnstone to match up against them. He then reverted to 4231 v Livvie. Then against the Faroes he played 352 as he wanted two strikers on but then Hedges scored the hatrick from false 9 position in the second half. Subbed on at half time for Main who was only good for 45 mins. The new formation was born. Link to comment
tightbreeks Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Taylor is as slow as. Other teams will target him because of this. He turns like an oil tanker. 1 Link to comment
tightbreeks Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 He needs to play up front in a training session, just to see how slow he is. He should leave the football to a player and accept he's a ball winner, and move it on to someone who can play. It certainly helped miller and mcleish. Link to comment

It's a bit disingenuous to only highlight Taylor here for his lack of pace. Considine is every bit as slow, especially on the turn. And even Hoban couldn't be described as anything other than pedestrian (although he and Consi to a lesser extent do have "football brains" which allows them to mitigate some of their deficiencies) Link to comment

strachanmcgheegoal Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 It’s funny that I didn’t see his key attribute until later though. Good passer, ridiculous vision and timing of the tackle, best penalty box defender in Europe, yes even the referee jibes which he also knew more than a thing or two about. It’s only now I appreciate the man was also as hard as fucking granite. Link to comment
tightbreeks Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Willie miller was never the quickest, but he read the game superbly coz he played up front at the start of his career.he knows how to follow striker side on instead of squaring up to him. I'm sure ash taylor knows this, he just needs to bring it on match day. I saw a team from michael Palins ripping yarns, golden Gordon, it was brighouse! The centre forward wears glasses...during the match. 8 bloody 1. Best football film ever. Link to comment

Game intelligence they call it now. Players learn it as they get older, the greats are born with it. Willie Miller was born with it. Link to comment
Yorston Vasey Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Cunt is good at making an arse of himself on Twitter, see he posted a pic on the golf course at 3:15pm when the game was on. Sooner we get him off the wage bill the better. Link to comment
Tord31 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I presume McInnes had him leaving this summer and after derek got the dunt logan was hoping for a clean slate but has been told yer still leaving and hence has now thrown a massive strop. Link to comment

muttonhumper Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Must be a contender for one of the thickest cunts ever to play for the Dons. Can only think of Mackie and Langfield coming close. Leighton? Jack? Davie Roberston? Nae doot missed a few obvious eens. Link to comment

Logan is 3rd choice right back & wouldn’t be on the bench. There’s no issue with him playing golf as he wasn’t asked to travel. It does seem a bit like him saying “fuck AFC, look what I’m doing instead” though. All a bit unnecessary Link to comment
