PauloPerth Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 First post-split match. Aberdeen have scored 2 goals in 97 matches, both from Callum Hendry who is ineligible to play against his parent club. Saints have won their last 3 matches 1-0. At McDiarmid Park in the league we’ve won 5 matches 1-0, drawn three 0-0, and lost 1-0 three times. This should be the easiest score line to predict in the history of football. Roll on the 4-3 thriller... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tree house tam Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 The worst Aberdeen side in years deserve a good pumping by Scotlands second most successful club*.

Widge Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Aye if there was ever a team you'd want to play when not scoring goals it would be one with a totally out of confidence Clark in goal! Then again we've kept 4 clean sheets in 5 games and he's barely faced a shot on target, so I think it's safe to say the defence is protecting him something fierce right now. If Kamberi plays though, he's got a nasty habit of scoring really smart goals against us and Liam Gordon especially has struggled against him in the past. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then put Kerr or McCart up against Kamberi and let Liam take care of someone else. Rooney to outshine Kennedy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite that simple when Kamberi isolates Gordon deliberately. If we simply let the other 2 deal with him centrally, it'll leave massive gaps in our back line. I really hate this notion from football fans that if one player can't handle another we simply let another defender deal with them. Ok that works at set pieces, but in an actual game you can't have Kerr or McCart having to worry about helping Gordon out constantly as he struggles against a player, otherwise they wouldn't be doing their own job effectively. 6 minutes ago, THE FAT MAN said: Very unfair on Zander Here we go again... Clark needs dropped/replaced/sold take your pick. For a team who concedes virtually no shots in a game, we concede a huge amount of goals. It's widely regarded out centrebacks are excellent and help the goalkeeper out massively, so it's not rocket science to see where the issues lie. We'll never progress as a team unless we upgrade in nets, or Clark can rediscover the form that had him touted for a Scotland cap. Maybe the big pay rise has made him rest on his laurels along side the lack of competition, not that it matters, things need t change one way or another. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Aberdeen are due a goal, we're due a defeat. Both sets of fans will read too much into our 1-0 defeat, forgetting we all just dance to the math gods tunes. C'est la vie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 8 shots on target on Saturday, Clark better brush up on what to do if the ball comes at him between the posts and under the bar. However, we always seem to bring the best in opposition goalkeepers going through a bad time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

betting competition Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 (edited) Our 3rd trip to Perth this season and everything points to a St Johnstone win even though they are yet to beat us this season.

Last 6 games: Won 5 Draw 1 Aberdeen record in the last 13 games: Won 3 Draw 4 Lost 6 - Scoring a massive 2 goals in the last 11 games.

The fact that there's been a 0-0 and a 1-0 Aberdeen you mean? Doesn't that make it even more likely that this is 1-0 Saints to complete the set of low scoring drab encounters? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suggests we might not score that many. 1-0 Saints. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
