Match Thread Qarabag 1 - 0 Aberdeen

[virtualmontana]

KADY - CUNT.

[aberdeen1970]

Finally. A free kick our way 

[DelMonte]

Ramirez has been absolutely fucking abysmal. Threw the ball back to them to take a quick throw. Played his whole career in a league that know fuck all about football.

[Guest milne_afc]

They look a far superior side in terms of technical ability(footballing)

Would no way blame Lewis for that one.

He was getting the blame for Gurr not clearing the ball v Raith, so hardly surprising he’s getting the blame here.

I think he could maybe have done better, but he’s stepping sideways then diving back the other way. Hardly a howler.

Yeah that is a great point that.

If only Jet thought that!

Need to move to a back 4 and push Hayes further up the pitch. Ramirez is dropping far too deep and we can’t get out.

not too much in it to be fair though

Na. Fuck this. Qarabag had 5 fouls for that foul that wasn't given against Ojo.

Go and fuck yourself you Slovenia ref cunt.

Anyways, calm.

This pitch is just an absolute shocker, there is literally nothing positive to say about it. I know there is 2 teams, but this game is a shocker due to it. A better pitch and we are in this game. We always seem to get a fucking cunt of a luck in this competition. Uefa approved this? They clearly approved it blind. 

Aye but at least the fans are a mile from the pitch. That’s the main thing Uefa seem concerned about if you listen to our esteemed board.

One of them your Dad? 
 

Both complete shite. If you see them please pass on my thoughts. 

[Big Hat Logan]

The fucking drama on here ?

I see Joe Lewis is officially the fans hate figure this season, every single goal now will be “Lewis could have got that” etc.

1-0 or 1-1 we take these cunts on a proper pitch. 

This referee is a fucking honker.

How so? You think they will be worse in better conditions?

Shite as pitch is it is no excuse for us being by far the shitest team on it. 
 

Can make all excuses we want but end of day Glass/Cormack & their gamble to attempt to sneak into groups with substandard squad is what is to blame. 
 

The central defence we have chanced it with over 3 rounds is BS. Especially playing twice a week

[frankie_mac's_4]

The boy took his goal well. Other than that I dinna think they're any great shakes. 

We've just been Lillian Gish on the ball and the pitch is a shocker

[Clydeside_Sheep]

Considering we are away, the pitch is shite, the referee is shite and we have been completely impotent in attack, to be 1-0 down isnt the end of the world.

Although they have had more of the ball, tbh they have done little else bar score a (decent) goal out of nothing and force a decent save from lewis.

[Oregon Red]

KInd of what I expected.  But the injury to Considine  shows our lack of defensive player..like our lack of attacking players.

Luckily Qarabag don't seem to be good at scoring. 

Wish the REd TV commentator would shut the fuck up about the pitch, YES we know its crap.

I would be happy with this as full time score. They don't look that great a team.

[RED_JOHN]

What a load of rubbish…we are like a Derek McInnes Aberdeen

Agree with Lewis but can’t complain about folk moaning. That was totally embarrassing.

We are only a quarter way through the tie

Pitch doesn’t help but some anonymous play from Ferguson and Ramirez. I’m not sure how good they are but certainly better at playing the referee. We have two cracking young lads as fullbacks. The heat and pitch really challenging. 1-0 would not be a disaster though a sneaky wee goal would be a bonus. Their keeper looks honking but we haven’t really tested him. 

[super_al]

I would stick to a back 5. I fear they would open us up if we change it.

[Reed or deed]

Let the whining and moaning continue ?

Honest to fuck, what a bunch of little spoiled girls there are on here.

Only 1-0 and we have struggled to get into the game so far. Not really too much to start throwing the childish criticism about for.

2nd half and we are settled in a bit, real opportunity to put these cunts to the sword now.

Honestly, it’s like every single post you make says the same thing; cormack and glass bad, the central defence blah blah. We fucking get it the first 100 times.

[thurso]

Midfield 2 are sitting to deep they are closing down late so end up chasing shadows 

[virtualmontana]

Second half it feels like we need to be more decisive in the final third when we get there, or, the game plan may be - let's just go there and come away with the tie alive for the second leg. Right now we are not over loading as per previous set up and holding back the midfield support when we get to this position.

This is possibly our game management or approach to this tie -  avoid being countered, Carrier Bag have tried that cut through ball a few times possibly identifying pace at the back as something to expose if we do go down the gung ho route.

Midfield is where this game is being won currently, think we need more in there. Campbell and McGeough for Ojo and JET would be my shout and nick an equaliser via Ramirez.

Other than that 0-1 in this heat, vs a team versed in conning ref is a good look, the caveat being they are clearly technically a level up and our pitch will suit them as much as it will us in the home tie.

 

[super_al]

I think their defence has a mistake in them. 

[1903Fitba]

We just need to do a goal or two. Not rocket science. 

[Ke1t]

We're not playing to our potential, and we're still in it. 

If we buck our ideas up we can make some headway.

Probably not the worst decision.
