Dons_1988 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Good first half, poor 2nd half. Good win, glad to see a clean sheet. The table looks a little more comfortable. Onto st Mirren. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bob Mahelp Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 If there was such a thing as a straightforward win for this Aberdeen side, that was it. Utterly dominant in the first half, went off the boil a bit in the second, but that's the kind of win we were needing. Onwards to Saturday and a St Mirren side that won't play a hell of a lot differently from Livi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Good result - and, for the most part, a very decent performance. Didn't play like a team who had just lost three games in a row. I have been unkind about Bates, but he has had two good performances in a row now - if he keeps this up, he will be ramming it down my throat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don exotic Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I thought Bates and McCrorie did well today. Gave us a solid platform for a change. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a woeful display by Livi from start to finish,championship material........... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukDukGoose Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Controversial opinion but I thought Bates was MOTM. Looked like a centre half the past two games. I thought we'd struggle to see a poorer away performance than United or Hibs this season. Livi were awful. Liked a lot of what we saw from JET considering his long absence. Not quite as down on the second half as others. Calmly saw it out when we realised they weren't up to much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarleyQuinn Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 (edited) Good win. We've performed as well as that in many other matches this season and come away with nothing. Difference was we scored and they didn't. I thought Bates was fantastic again and should have been awarded the MOTM. McCrorie also stood out. Ramirez also deserves praise. Others will disagree but I thought JET made a difference. Aside from losing the ball a few times, his physicality made us more direct and there were times where he played a wonderful ball to create an opportunity. Thought we were robbed of a penalty. Irrespective of the sending off, we haven't really been getting the rub of green regarding decisions this season. Looking forward to Ramsay's return. I'm also keen to see McKenzie back. Glass needs to ensure we build on this and get us back up the table. Edited December 1, 2021 by HarleyQuinn 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don exotic Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I think we should punt all the loan players in January. We need our core squad to settle and would be better blooding our own prospects for the few opportunities outwith this. Their salaries can be used to plan contracts next summer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less said about Longstaff the better. Jenks hasn't done enough for me. Campbell, McGeouch, Brown and Ojo are all ahead of them IMO. I'm excited to see the young lad Duncan featuring soon and Hancock. We seem to be finally getting a conveyor belt of talent coming through the youth ranks. Regarding Samuels, we haven't really seen enough of him to make a proper judgement. I believe he was one of Mowbray's recommendations. Devlin, Jenks, Longstaff and Kennedy need moved on in January. I'd rather we didn't sign anyone and promoted more youth players to the first team squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally I’d like Devlin, Gurr, McGinn, Jenks, Longstaff, Kennedy, McLennan all gone. Bring in 3 maybe? Trim the squad & strengthen the first X1. That also depends on potential sales - Ferguson & Hedges namely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with you that Bates was MOTM and that Livingston were awful. They are easily the worst team I've seen this season. Disagree with you about JET. I thought he was awful and painfully slow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was definitely off the pace and a bit wasteful though. Should have had two pens and Longridge should have been sent off long before the second yellow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
