Martin_T Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 McKenna in many ways reminds me of a young Christophe Berra, left sided, physically imposing and quick, but technically limited. Given Berra went for over £2.5million 10 years ago, I don't suppose it's out of the question, that factoring in inflation, that the Dons should be looking for more than that. Of the game, great second half from Hearts and we learned a lesson from previous games this season when playing a back 3, by playing Berra in the middle so he can concentrate on defending and also to limit his time on the ball.

the jambo-rocker Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I'm glad we've established if we're playing a back three that Berra should be in the middle of it. He much better being left to make tackles, challenge from headers whilst letting the other two mop up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of our players being found out for the dross they are now. No idea what McInnes was playing at with substitution of McLenann for Devlin when chasing the game. A was in the gorgie end and it’s not a pen but but the 2nd shout when he got booked for diving looked a pen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Debbie Harry Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Any thoughts on Cosgrove’s forearm smash in the first half being only a yellow? From back of the wheatfield I thought he was very lucky to stay on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difference with that comparison is Berra was a miles better defender. The amount of times McKenna gets caught under the ball, or caught on the ball is mental. He'll never play higher than the English Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_1988 Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Hearts fans particularly excitable after a game they claimed they didn’t care about 24 hours ago.

From back of the wheatfield I thought he was very lucky to stay on. 'Orange card' type thing. I think Beaton just wasn't very sure which card to give, he went to speak to Cosgrove and changed his mind and checked on Berra first, I thought he was probably looking for blood/no blood to make his mind up on what colour card he was giving. Not sure it's the best way to judge it tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several jambos were at it. Never noticed before that diving is a tactic at Hearts, certainly not the amount of ‘conning the ref’ that went on yesterday. Found it quite amusing how mental the home fans were going at the ref. He had clearly got some of the decisions correct where the jambos were near exploding with rage.
